An interesting but sobering article in the Vail Daily News outlines how toxins in our environment are playing a major role in declining fertility.
It’s acknowledged that one out of every six couples in the U.S. experiences problems with conception during the first 12 months of trying. Apparently, toxins can affect sperm count, movement and “structure” and sons of mothers who have a high level of toxins may have a lower sperm count and a male birth defect called hypospadias.
In women, environmental toxins can affect ovulation, hormones such as progesterone and estrogen, and can cause PCOS, endometriosis and fibroids.
Fortunately, taking precautionary steps as simple as using glass instead of plastic containers, can aid in fertility and conception.

If you wonder where the Federal Government’s $787 billion stimulus package is being spent, you’ll be pleased to hear that a $ 7.5 million grant has been designated for infertility research at the Yale School of Public Health. It was awarded through the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
Professor Heping Zhang’s Data Coordination Center team, which is part of the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development’s Reproductive Medicine Network, will focus on the drug Letrozole with a view to producing an increase in single births, which result in safer pregnancies.
The majority of fertility treatments currently available result in multiple pregnancies which boost the risk of premature births and birth defects. Nine-hundred infertile women will be recruited at seven sites throughout the U.S. for the two-year trial which will be followed by data analysis by the research team.
Two common fertility drugs, Clomid and gonadotrophins will also be used in the study.
