Toxins in your body?!
Question: Can an overload of toxins in your body prevent you from getting pregnant?
Answers: Can an overload of toxins in your body prevent you from getting pregnant?
Sure thing.
The body has a dynamic equilibrium - that is, we can think of it like a swing. So imagine your body like a moving swing. Your body only has so much energy that it can put into doing things - just like a swing can only go so far, because the chains hold it in place. Say we give a stopped swing a big push. The swing will move quite a distance before it reaches the point that it can go no higher. Now imagine giving that same big push to a swing that is already moving. This second swing will not move as far as the first, because it is much closer to the point where the chains will stop it.
Pregnancy demands a lot of the body - it needs a lot of the body's energy to go full term. A healthy body is like that stopped swing, where the 'big push' of pregnancy has lots of room to work. The second, moving swing represents the body clogged with toxins - so much energy is already working towards getting rid of the toxins, that there is not enough energy left to maintain a pregnancy.
When the body is stressed, it cuts the energy to 'unnecessary' systems, such as the reproductive.
This can be seen in young female athletes with 'feminine triad', a disorder where menstruation is lost because the body is under such duress in relentless pursuit of success in a given sport.
