Women should take these nutrients daily to improve fertility: Dr Chanchal Sharma
2 min readA sedentary lifestyle and poor diet can affect your fertility. A couple’s fertility is very important to get the happiness of parenthood, but every person’s fertility is different, due to which some people face more difficulties than a normal couple in having children. The problem of infertility can occur in one or both men and women.
Dr. Chanchal Sharma, Director of Asha Ayurveda and Fertility Expert says in this matter that the cause of infertility can be different in both men and women. Infertility in women can be caused by tubal blockage, PCOD, thyroid, endometriosis, hormonal disorders, low AMH, etc. Pregnancy is often difficult due to age. If a couple tries to conceive after the age of 35, then they have to face problems because gradually your fertility starts decreasing with age. That’s why experts recommend that you plan children before the age of 35.
