Alcohol May reduce chances of pregnancy-Report
It's a dark day for lovers of Franzia the world
over. A new study has found that drinking wine while trying to get pregnant can
drastically lower your chances of conception, which means our underground
cellar of pinot just got that much more depressing.
According to research carried
out by a New York Fertility clinic, just one or two glasses of liquid gold per
week can reduce a woman's chance of getting pregnant by a third. Up your intake
to three or more glasses, and your reduced chance of getting pregnant
skyrockets to two thirds!
Dr. Dara Godfrey of
Reproductive Medicine Associates researched 91 women undergoing IVF treatment,
and those who drank reduced their odds of getting pregnant by 70 percent.
Shocking to say the least, and the worst part is that even drinking small
amounts of alcohol can decrease a woman's chances of getting pregnant!
"My advice at the end of
the day is to limit alcohol to very low amounts or to abstain completely,"
Dara says.
This is sobering news indeed (literally, get it?) for women
trying to get pregnant who also like to indulge in a glass of vino every now
and then. On the other hand, it's not as though drinking a few sips of wine willcompletely eradicate your chances of creating a
baby, so this is definitely a personal decision!
