“…In current study we observed that the log odd of primary infertility increased by 11 fold among couples that eat diet enriched with saturated fat as compared to their counter parts. The finding by Cekici also supports our finding that unhealthy diet were significant determinants of infertility among male and female according his finding shows saturated fat, red meat, processed meats, fatty dairy products, sugar and sweeteners, alcohol and caffeine come to the forefront as cause of infertility [31]. The possible justification for this High intake of Trans fatty acids cause significant decline in sperm concentration and sperm count and Trans fatty acids play a negative role in reproduction by increasing risk of ovulatory infertility in women with polycystic ovary syndrome [31].…”

Primary infertility is denoted for those women who have not been conceived previously. There are many biological causes of infertility such as ovulatory factors, utero-tubal peritoneal factor, semen migration factor and the male factor respectively. However, comprehensive epidemiological studies on the risk factors for primary infertility are not well documented in Ethiopia in particular current study area so far. Therefore the objective of this study was to assess determinants of primary infertility and outcome among married women attending obstetrics and gynecology specialty centers at Adama Town, Oromia, Ethiopia, 2020. Methods: Institution based unmatched case control study was conducted from November 16 to December 30, 2020. A sample of 178 married women with 1:2 ratio (59: cases and 119; controls) who attended obstetrics and gynecology clinic at Adama Town were included in the study by stratified random sampling technique. Data were collected using structured interview-administered questionnaire. Then data were entered in to Epi-Info version 7 then exported to SPSS version 24 for processing and analysis. To identify determinants of primary infertility, binary logistic regression model was used. In final fitted regression model a p-value of less than 0.05 was considered to declare significance of association. Result: A total of 178 participants (59 cases and 119 controls) were included in the study making a response rate of 100%. A significant determinants of primary infertility in this study were: Rural residence [AOR]: 27.95 (7.0, 111)], Husband Engaged in High Temperature Occupation [AOR]: 18.86 (3.8, 93.4)], eating diet enriched with saturated fat [AOR]: 10.97 (3, 40.1)], not undergoing adequate sex [AOR]: 0.120 (0.03, 0.57)], Menstruation flow greater than 3 days [AOR]: 4.4 (1.17, 16.6)], Ever use contraceptives [AOR]: 0.146 (0.05, 0.405)] and Chronic pelvic pain [AOR]: 18.7 (3.6, 94)]. More than one third of cases (33.9%) reported that perceived causes of infertility were punishment from God/Allah. Conclusion and recommendation: Being Rural residence, husband engaged in high temperature occupation, eating diet enriched with saturated fat, not undergoing adequate sex, Menstruation flow greater than 3 days, Ever used contraceptives and Chronic pelvic pain were identified as determinants of women's primary infertility. Therefore we recommend all married women to take treatment of any gynecological diseases like pelvic inflammatory disease.

“…Results were extracted for overweight and obese women and men. The combination of an unhealthy diet and an increasingly sedentary lifestyle in the Western world has led to a growing number of obese people, which also applies to women and men in the preconception period (Du Plessis, Cabler, McAlister, Sabanegh, & Agarwal, 2010;Çekici, 2018). The primary aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between men's BMI and their sperm parameters (volume, concentration and motility) and to determine whether or not it affects embryo quality and IVF outcome.…”

Introduction: The growing proportion of overweight and obese people worldwide is of great concern as it affects the overall health of people and consequently also their reproductive health. The aim of this literature review is to examine how increased body mass index affects fertility and preconception health in men and women.Methods: A scoping literature review was conducted in February 2021 using PubMed and Medline databases, as well as the Google Scholar search engine. Inclusion criteria consisted of scientific literature, regardless of methodology, and articles published in Slovene and English.Results: The literature search yielded 9 reviews and 5 original quantitative studies published in English in the last 15 years. The results suggest that there is compelling evidence that obese individuals are at increased risk of various health problems in the pre-conception period that may affect their fertility and ability to conceive.Discussion and conclusion: The rising prevalence of high body mass index is changing the reproductive health of men and women. Growing obesity rates, particularly in the Western world, call for greater awareness of this metabolic syndrome and its impact on female and male reproduction. Health professionals working with couples in the pre-conception period should have sufficient knowledge to address the impact of high body mass index on reproductive health and promote a healthy lifestyle.

“…It is important to note, however, that the safety of breakfast cereals cannot be addressed solely through the toxicological testing of a very limited number of individual chemical constituents such as phytoestrogens and must also consider the health information regarding the food itself. A literature search did not retrieve any scientific evidence suggesting potential reproductive and developmental concerns resulting from the intake of cereal‐based products (Cekici, 2018; Williams, 2014). On the contrary, whole grain products, which are known to contain higher levels of phytoestrogens, are associated with a number of nutritional benefits and are commonly understood to have nutritional value beyond that of more refined cereal‐based foods (Global Burden of Disease Diet Collaborators, 2019; Williams, 2014).…”
