Infertility Traced To Mental Illness


In a recent article published on The Times of India, it is reported that women who do not have children are at risk for developing mental health issues as they get older.  The article sites a Danish study and adds that alcohol and drug abuse usage are much more common in women who learn that they are infertile.

It seems that for some time now, Indian specialists and doctors have urged its state to consider infertility as a key factor in family planning policies.  It is no surprise that infertility is on the rise.

In 2010, a study was conducted by the International Institute for Population Sciences in Mumbai.  The study reports an increase in childlessness by 50% in the period of time from 1981 to 2001.  During this twenty year period, Indian couples have seen a marked change in fertility.  Compared to the rest of the world, where an estimated 70 million or more couples are infertile, Indian couples account for nearly 25% of that total.

The Danish study found that many of the mental health problems suffered by women as result of childlessness required hospitalization.  It is even reported by one researcher that women who are childless are almost 50% more likely to have symptoms of schizophrenia than those who give birth.

Given these significant revelations, we always encourage couples seeking to become pregnant follow a healthy diet and consult with a reputable fertility clinic in order to give themselves a greater chance of conceiving a child.
