Infertility link to caffeine found in new study

We have effectively treated infertility with a combination of Acupuncture meridian balancing, Asryra energetic balancing, Chiropractic and nutrtion. If the below study is true, it appears the increased rise of female infertility may be due to chemical toxic stressors or repetitive infections, as we practitioners have surmised for years. The next question is whether elimination of caffiene will reverse the effects, it appears to be so. The Asrya's heavy metal and toxic stressor profiles clearing these elements from the body may be the reason our combined bioenergetic infertility treatment works. Regardless, do all you can naturally to bring about normalcy, and leave the invitro for the last resort. Once pregnant you want your body to be as 'clean' as possible regardless. My suggestion would be to first do a comprehensive detoxification prior to becoming pregnant regardless.

Infertility link to caffeine found in new study

Caffeine reduces muscle activity in the Fallopian tubes that carry eggs from a woman�s ovaries to her womb. “Our experiments were conducted in mice, but this finding goes a long way towards explaining why drinking caffeinated drinks can reduce a woman’s chance of becoming pregnant,” says Sean Ward, professor of physiology and cell biology, at the University of Nevada School of Medicine, who conducted the study.

Ward’s study was recently published in the British Journal of Pharmacology.

Human eggs are microscopically small, but need to travel to a woman’s womb if she is going to have a successful pregnancy. Although the process is essential for a successful pregnancy, scientists know little about how eggs move through the muscular Fallopian tubes. It was generally assumed that tiny hair-like projections, called cilia, in the lining of the tubes, waft eggs along assisted by muscle contractions in the tube walls.

By studying tubes from mice, Ward and his team discovered that caffeine stops the actions of specialized pacemaker cells in the wall of the tubes. These cells coordinate tube contractions so that when they are inhibited, eggs can’t move down the tubes. In fact these muscle contractions play a bigger role than the beating cilia in moving the egg towards the womb.

“This provides an intriguing explanation as to why women with high caffeine consumption often take longer to conceive than women who do not consume caffeine,” said Ward.

Discovering the link between caffeine consumption and reduced fertility has benefits.

“As well as potentially helping women who are finding it difficult to get pregnant, a better understanding of the way Fallopian tubes work will help doctors treat pelvic inflammation and sexually-transmitted disease more successfully,” said Ward.

It could also increase our understanding of what causes ectopic pregnancy, an extremely painful and potentially life-threatening situation in which embryos get stuck and start developing inside a woman’s Fallopian tube.
