How The Air In Your Home Impacts Fertility

According to the EPA, American’s spend more than 90% of life indoors. And our Indoor Air Quality, IAQ, is less than ideal.

Indoors is where the concentrations of some pollutants are 2-5 x's higher than typical outdoor concentrations.

Who's working on their #1000hours this year?


Indoor Air Quality + Fertility

A few years ago, a fertility laboratory conducted a test on air quality where the only variable was indeed the air quality and their findings proved that better IAQ meant more live births.

(To read the study, search PubMed forLive births achieved via IVF are increased by improvements in air quality and laboratory environment”.)

Both animal and human epidemiological studies support the idea that air pollutants cause defects during gametogenesis leading to a drop in reproductive capacities.

Hidden Causes of Infertility

20% of infertility cases go unexplained or “unknown”. Now, there’s a direct connection between air pollution and infertility that may account for a majority of unexplained infertility. By increasing your air quality and removing hidden toxins in the home, you can correct your well-being.


Why's Our Air Quality So Bad?

Indoor pollutants have increased in recent decades for a few reasons:

  • Energy-efficient building construction (when it lacks sufficient mechanical ventilation to ensure adequate air exchange)

  • Increased use of synthetic building materials,

  • Furnishings,

  • Personal care products,

  • Pesticides and

  • Household cleaners.


Air quality has an impact on overall health and more specifically air quality impacts our reproductive function, so increased awareness of environmental protection issues is needed among the general public and the authorities to better protect ourselves + our families.
