Clients are being referred to OxyGeneration for hyperbaric oxygen therapy for fertility issues. Oxygen plays a crucial role in maintaining the overall health and functioning of our bodies. It promotes tissue repair, and aids in the elimination of toxins optimal oxygen levels are vital.
Hyperbaric oxygenation involves breathing almost 100 per cent oxygen in a pressurized chamber, which increases the amount of oxygen dissolved in the bloodstream and delivered to tissues.
Key points regarding HBOT and infertility.
1. Ovarian function and egg quality
Improvement in ovarian function: Research suggests that HBOT might improve ovarian function, especially in cases where women have conditions that limit blood flow to the ovaries, such as endometriosis or ovarian ageing.
Potential to improve egg quality: HBOT could enhance egg quality by promoting better oxygenation of ovarian tissue. Some studies on animals have shown promising results, where HBOT has been linked to increased ovarian reserve and healthier follicles.
2. Endometrial health
Endometrial thickness: For women undergoing IVF, having an adequately thick endometrium (lining of the uterus ) is important for embryo implantation. HBOT may improve endometrial thickness by enhancing blood flow and tissue oxygenation, potentially creating a more favourable environment for implantation.
3. Male infertility
Sperm quality improvement: Some research has shown that HBOT may improve sperm motility and reduce oxidative stress in sperm cells, which are key factors in male fertility. By reducing oxidative damage, HBOT might help improve sperm quality, especially in men with conditions such as varicocele or infections.
4. Inflammatory and autoimmune conditions
Reducing inflammation: Infertility related to conditions such as pelvic inflammatory disease (PID ), endometriosis, or immune system disorders may benefit from HBOT due to its anti-inflammatory effects. It can help reduce inflammation in the reproductive organs, improving the chances of conception.
