On April 6 and 7, International Sports Day and World Health Day were celebrated.
Madrid, April 8, 2024.- Sport is one of the most beneficial activities for people and, above all, for those looking to start a family, since it directly impacts and promotes fertility. On April 6 and 7, the International Day of Sports and Health was celebrated, which aims to promote the importance of carrying out physical activities, maintaining an active routine and having good habits. In fact, according to the latest Living Conditions Survey of the National Institute of Statistics that asks citizens over 16 years of age, 11 million people in the country do not do any type of physical exercise. For this reason, VIDA Clinics, specialized centers in reproductive medicine from the Recoletas Health Group, wanted to analyze 5 ways in which sport favors fertility since, in addition, among those 11 million people, sedentary lifestyle is also greater among women than in men. This data is alarming since, in all the vital stages of a woman such as hormonal development, the fertile period and the subsequent menopause, having an active life and a sports routine are very important to maintain a healthy life. The VIDA clinics have compiled the 5 main benefits that sport has for fertility:1. Keeps the heart healthy. When you are moving, whether walking, running, or doing yoga stretches, you are promoting blood circulation and strengthening your heart muscle. This improves the heart’s ability to pump blood to the lungs and throughout the body. Likewise, and accompanied by a healthy diet, sport maintains stable cholesterol and blood sugar levels, key elements for reproductive activity.2. Improves rest. Endorphins and fatigue after a session of sports activity not only help levels of cortisol, the stress hormone, decrease and, in turn, make people feel better. They are also responsible for better sleep, ensuring that the night’s rest is longer and of higher quality.3. Fight stress. One of the most common reasons why people do not do sports in their daily lives is their stressful schedule. However, they do not know that it is precisely that time of exercise that they are avoiding that could help them with stress. During an exercise session, the production levels of brain neurotransmitters that make you feel good, endorphins, increase, which combat stress and low mood, both very important problems in reproductive activity.4. Strengthens the body. Sports activity tones and even rejuvenates bones and muscles, being able to increase the body’s physical resistance and help control weight. In a process of reproductive search it is very important to keep the body healthy and strong and at a healthy weight, so maintaining an active routine directly favors the reproductive function.5. Regulates the hormonal system. As already mentioned in the previous points, when performing some type of physical exercise the entire body is activated, including the endocrine system. In this way, the production of many hormones increases, including endorphins, and their release promotes hormonal regulation which, in turn, has a very positive impact on ovulation and menstrual cycles, crucial points for fertility, especially in women with conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome. “By incorporating exercise into daily routines, even with small gestures, women seeking to improve their fertility can experience great benefits not only in this area but in their overall health,” Manuel Fernández Scientific Director of Clínicas VIDAAbout Recoletas SaludRecoletas Salud is one of the most important healthcare groups on the national scene, a family business with a single partner with a staff of more than 3,000 people and a history of 35 years in the sector.
