Do you crave sugar?  

Even though you know you shouldn't eat it you can't help it?  

Could insulin resistance be the cause of your infertility?

Have you been diagnosed with PCOS?

Insulin is a hormone that helps move blood sugar from the bloodstream into cells to use as energy. When cells do not respond to the rising blood sugar, the level of insulin increases as the pancreas produces more and more insulin-a condition known as insulin resistance.  Insulin resistance means that the body becomes desensitized to insulin and loses the ability to regulate blood sugar and raises the risk for diabetes.

Too much insulin increases androgen production by the ovaries.  Androgen excess and insulin resistance are responsible for sixty to eighty-five percent of irregular or absent ovulation in women with PCOS.

Fluctuating blood sugar levels can disrupt your entire endocrine system, which causes imbalances in the following reproductive hormones:

Weight gain due to insulin resistance can trigger the production of more estrogen, a female reproductive hormone, which throws off your body’s carefully balanced ratio of estrogen to testosterone.

It can also cause inflammation throughout the body, which can affect the reproductive system, specifically the function of the ovaries and testes

We also know from studies that overweight and obese individuals tend to have impaired insulin sensitivity, which can lead to higher levels of glucose and insulin in the blood and promote increased fat storage in the liver. In other words, being overweight or obese can make you more insulin resistance which can lead to even more weight gain — kicking off a negatively reinforcing cycle that potentially contributes to infertility.
