High Cholesterol Make Difficult Times

A healthy body is an important requirement for couples who want to get the descendants . Couples who have high cholesterol levels is more difficult to conceive .

Researchers found that cholesterol -free to couples who have not conceived after 12 months is higher than the couples who have managed to get pregnant .

Free cholesterol is the cholesterol that is not bound to other molecules . In contrast , HDL ( good cholesterol ) and LDL ( bad cholesterol ) is bound to proteins .

The results of this new study shows , free cholesterol was influential on the level of fertility . Women who have high levels of free cholesterol but her partner has normal levels was also longer to get pregnant than couples who both have normal cholesterol free .

The study monitored 501 couples in Michigan and Texas who are trying to have children and not following fertility treatment . Nurse taking blood sample of husband and wife at the beginning of the study and measure the five levels of blood fats , ie free cholesterol , total cholesterol , phospholipids , triglycerides , and total lipids .

During the study year , 347 couples successfully conceive . After evaluating the levels of fat in each person and each pair , it found a strong association between high levels of free cholesterol and difficulty conceiving .

Free cholesterol is not routinely tested by a doctor . In general, there are only three sizes were used , namely total cholesterol , lipoportein ( HDL and LDL ) , and triglycerides .

Cholesterol is considered to affect fertility because it affects the hormone levels of men and women . Hormones such as estrogen and progesterone is very important in fertilization . Besides these hormones also affect sperm quality , egg sticking , and also a healthy pregnancy .
