4 Silent Infertility Factors in Your Home
Infertility Factors #1. Household Cleaning Products
Chemicals in common cleaning products can be absorbed through the skin up to three times more than if you were to ingest them orally.
But you don’t have to touch them to be affected. Most of these products release volatile organic compounds into the air you breathe when they are just sitting in your cupboard.
One of the first things I have my patients do is get rid of all commercial cleaning products from their homes. You simply don’t need to permit the gas fumes and chemical residues to create in a toxic environment in your home.
Infertility Factors #2. Computers
A startling research study published in the American Journal of Industrial Medicine found women who spend 20 hours per week in front of the computer had twice the frequency of miscarriages when compared to those who did not.
Does this mean you need to get away from your computer? Although this may be helpful, it’s seldom practical though it will help you if you can take frequent breaks away from the computer screen – at least whilst you’re trying to conceive. And implement some of the radiation safety cures I share with you during The #FertilityChallenge series
Infertility Factors #3. Mobile Phones
Another study published in Fertility and Sterility found negative sperm change was directly connected to exposure of mobile phones. The simple advice… is… if you want to conceive then temporarily reduce your mobile phone usage and NEVER carry it in your pocket. And this applies to the ladies too!
Infertility Factors #4. Electric Appliances
There are also studies linking radiation in electric blankets and microwaves, and even clock radios to fertility and even cot death.
Reducing your exposure to these items will enhance fertility over the 120 days of preconception preparation. (Source: Journal of Occupational Safety and Ergonomics).
