6 Hidden Reasons Why You Can’t Get Pregnant

The main factors that reduce the chances of having a baby are well known: childbirth and breastfeeding, using birth control pills, smoking. However, very often even the absence of these reasons doesn’t guarantee that you will get pregnant.

6. You consume too many trans fats.


Eating trans fats – found in baked goods, pizzas, snacks like chips, fried foods – can negatively impact fertility, meaning that ovulation does not occur. Try to limit consumption of these foods as consuming them instead of healthy carbohydrates can cause up to a 73% increased risk of an ovulatory disorder. When you are craving these trans fat carbs, it’s better to eat snacks like bananas, whole grain rye crispbread, almonds, or yogurt with berries.
