Viagra may harm men's fertility, report warns

Extract from the Sunday Telegraph:

"The anti-impotence drug Viagra could harm men's fertility, scientists have warned.

New research suggests that the drug can damage sperm and so prevent some men from starting a family.

The findings mean that young men who take the drug recreationally could be damaging their chances of starting a family.

Likewise, fertility clinics that prescribe the drug to help men produce sperm could be preventing couples from getting pregnant.

The research was led by Dr David Glenn, a consultant gynaecologist at Queen's University Belfast, and will be published in the journal Fertility and Sterility."

A protein has been discovered which it may be possible eventually to use in medication to prolong the life of a woman's eggs.

Fertility pill that could delay menopause - Telegraph

Extract:

"Professor Robert Winston, of Imperial College in London, told a conference that researchers had found a protein which they believe could be developed into a pill or an injection to prolong the life of women's eggs.

Last week it was disclosed that the number of women aged 40 and over having fertility treatment had increased ten-fold in the past 15 years."

Obesity can make a woman less fertile. If you have this problem you may like to try cutting down on salt and salty food because this is a completely safe way to reduce obesity. - Eating less salt/sodium reduces the fluid retention which is the cause of obesity. Eating plenty of fruit and fresh vegetables makes the weight loss faster. A really obese woman who follows this advice will EASILY lose about a stone (14 pounds) in a month, and will continue to lose weight as long as the advice continues to be taken. Obese people are sensitive to salt, and so for them salt is harmful - much more harmful than it is for people who are not obese or overweight.

IT IS IMPORTANT NOT TO DIET OR COUNT CALORIES OR GO HUNGRY!

And it is not necessary to do exercises to lose weight.

Lose weight by eating less salt! Go on! - Try it! - You will feel so much better!

Women who donate their eggs for fertility research are at risk from life-threatening side effects, University of Padua scientists warn in a new study.

Fertility research drugs put egg donors at risk

Extract:

"Women who donate their eggs for research are at risk from life-threatening side effects, scientists warn in a new study.

They say that the powerful drugs given to the volunteers to help increase the number of eggs they produce can cause paralysis, limb amputation and even death.

The warning comes days before the results of a review into a controversial decision to allow doctors to harvest eggs from healthy volunteers for research purposes.

The Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA) is expected to endorse its policy, which provoked an outcry when it was announced last year. But the safety of egg donation is questioned by Italian experts.

In their study, 34 women suffered severe reactions to the hormone-stimulating drugs used. The researchers, at the University of Padua, found that most of those affected had previously enjoyed good health. An analysis of doctors' reports since the early 1990s revealed that 60 per cent of the accidents involved blood clots in the head and neck.

The study, in the journal Thrombosis and Thrombolysis, concludes that the number of side effects would rise as the number of assisted reproduction techniques increased and that doctors using the drugs need a better understanding of the potential risks."


Obesity is one factor that reduces fertility, and obesity is caused/initiated by fluid retention and salt sensitivity. A completely safe and very healthy way for women to increase their fertility, therefore, is to reduce their intake of salt/sodium.

Remember: Obesity is not caused by eating too much. - Since it is usually caused/initiated by salt sensitivity and fluid retention, and is best reduced by abandoning the calorie myth and concentrating on cutting down on salt/sodium intake and eating plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables.
