Studies have shown that imbalances in the gut microbiota can have far-reaching effects on reproductive health. For instance, disruptions in the gut microbiome can trigger chronic low-grade inflammation throughout the body, including the reproductive organs, potentially leading to irregular menstrual cycles, ovulation problems, and decreased sperm quality.
Furthermore, the gut microbiome aids in the metabolism of estrogen, a hormone crucial for female fertility. Imbalances in gut bacteria can alter this process, leading to hormonal disruptions that may affect conception and pregnancy.
