🌸 Thinking About Starting Your Fertility Journey? 🌸
Starting your fertility journey is a deeply personal and exciting time, filled with hope and anticipation for what’s to come. However, if you have a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or more, it’s important to know that improving your fitness can significantly increase your chances of conception. Let's explore why and how Mother Fit's BEYOND Program can help you achieve your goals.
🌟 How BMI Impacts Fertility 🌟
A high BMI can affect your fertility in several ways. According to guidelines from the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), women with a BMI of 30 or higher are more likely to experience delays in conceiving. Excess weight can disrupt hormonal balance and, in some cases, prevent ovulation entirely.
Research has shown that weight loss in women with a high BMI can significantly boost their chances of conception. By reducing your BMI through a combination of exercise and dietary changes, you’re not only improving your overall health but also optimising your body for pregnancy. 💡
The Evidence on Weight and Fertility
Here are some key points from NICE guidelines on obesity and fertility:
- BMI of 30+ may delay conception: Women with a BMI over 30 may experience longer times to conceive.
- Weight loss can improve ovulation: For those not ovulating, losing weight is likely to restore fertility.
- Group fitness programs lead to better outcomes: Women who engage in a structured program with exercise and nutrition guidance have higher pregnancy rates than those receiving weight loss advice alone.
