The purpose of this thesis is to present and define the lifestyle of women with fertility problems. Infertility is a disease that is more and more common among women and is to a certain extent a consequence of a poor individual's lifestyle. Since this thesis is a monographic type, it includes the review of the literature and researches on the lifestyle and infertility.
When examining the literature, the main focus was on determining the causes of reduced possibilities for conception. We also defined the lifestyle of women with infertility problems and attempted to obtain data on the impact of physical activity on the success of conception. Additionally, we defined the amount and form of physical activity that would improve the body's mass index and consequently improve health. We also found out which factors are the most harmful to an individual. According to the results of the research, those factors are smoking, stress, overweight, drinking alcohol and excessive consumption of caffeine.
It has been found that exercise does not directly affect fertility; however regular and sufficiently intense exercise reduces the percentage of the body fat, thus affecting sex hormones and insulin resistance, which also further affect the functioning of the ovaries. For women who are trying to get pregnant, it is recommended to reduce the number of negative factors in their lives and live as healthy as possible. This ensures optimal functioning of their body and protects them against many diseases.
