How does physical activity impact fertility? ASRM_org UofRegina fertility exercise activity pregnancy womenshealth
By Dr. Chinta SidharthanJul 6 2023Reviewed by Lily Ramsey, LLM In a recent study published in the F&S Reports Journal, researchers reviewed existing literature to understand the effect of exercise on fertility.
However, the guidelines on the impact of exercise and physical activity levels on fertility and the probability of conception lack clarity. This makes it difficult for healthcare providers to provide patients with recommendations on the intensity and frequency of exercise levels that must be followed to maximize conception chances.
Experimental and observational studies involving both female and male patients were included in the review. The three major groups identified in the selected studies were women who were healthy and trying to conceive, women undergoing treatments for assisted reproduction, and women with polycystic ovarian syndrome.
Exercise and physical activity can be measured using objective markers such as metabolic markers and heart rate. Exercise levels were categorized from mild to vigorous based on these measures. Results The results indicated that several studies report a detrimental impact of vigorous and intense exercise levels on the conception chances of healthy women attempting to conceive, especially concerning luteal progesterone and estradiol levels.
