A woman’s pre-pregnancy diet could have a greater impact on fertility and pregnancy than previously thought, according to new research by Monash University and Hudson Institute of Medical Research scientists.
The study found that certain proteins, which become ‘toxic’ after exposure to sugar, trigger inflammation in the womb in infertile women with obesity. This may reduce the likelihood of a woman falling pregnant and could even contribute to pregnancy complications.
