🚴‍♂️ Cycling is great for health 💪 However, if you ride a lot, you might wonder about how it impacts your fertility 🤔 Here’s what research says, and how to protect your sperm 👉

Some studies link 5+ hours per week of cycling with lower sperm count and less motility. However, many other studies don’t find major fertility harm in recreational cyclists.

Why Cycling Could Affect Sperm
Pressure from the saddle on the perineum may reduce blood flow or compress nerves. Heat build-up around the testicles (from tight shorts, or a long time in the saddle) could impact sperm production.

How to Ride Safely
Use an ergonomic saddle to reduce pressure.
Wear breathable, padded cycling shorts.
Take breaks, stand up while riding, and avoid super long or intense rides if fertility is a concern.

Let’s look at how inner health can help with fertility 👉

📉 As Australia’s birth rate drops to a record-low 1.5 births per woman, there’s a factor we often overlook in fertility care: mental health during pregnancy 👶 18% of the population are affected by poor mental health, and research has show that many women are navigating pregnancy without adequate mental health support 🩺 Stress, anxiety, and depression during pregnancy can directly impact conception, pregnancy outcomes, and long-term family health 🧠 It’s time to integrate emotional wellbeing into fertility planning 📝 Let’s move beyond cycles and counts, and start talking about the thoughts and feelings that shape reproductive journeys 💭 You don’t have to navigate this alone, and I’m always here to help you structure your fertility pathway ☎️

👶 A 30-year-old frozen embryo, preserved in 1994, just became a healthy baby in 2025 🧬 This is the oldest embryo ever to result in a live birth, setting a new world record 🥇

🥚 In the US and Australia, people can choose to donate their embryos if they are not going to use them during their conception journey 🩺 This 30-year-old embryo was still in storage, and was donated to a couple facing infertility 🧬 It is unlikely that we would see this occur in Australia, as there are limits on how long embryos can be stored, and these differ state-by-state 🗓 However, this groundbreaking medical achievement could demonstrate that embryos can be stored for longer, leading to healthy outcomes for all involved 🤔

🩺 As a fertility specialist, I’m deeply encouraged by the latest FIGO (the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics) recommendations, now published in the International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics 📝 These guidelines were developed to weave fertility preservation into cancer care, especially for people of reproductive age 👶 This is important, because cancer treatments such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, and newer immunotherapies can pose significant risks to fertility 🧬 Thus, early, collaborative counseling between oncology and fertility teams is essential 💬

📌 The FIGO guidelines outline the importance of developing tailored options, including:
❄️ Oocyte and sperm cryopreservation (standard care)
🥚 Ovarian tissue freezing and fertility-sparing surgery, especially valuable in time-sensitive or prepubertal cases
👶 Post-treatment pathways like assisted reproduction, surrogacy, or adoption

💕 Preserving fertility is a critical component of long-term quality of life for cancer survivors 🩺 Timely, multidisciplinary care allows patients to make informed decisions without delaying vital treatment, so these guidelines are a great step forward 💪 If you’re facing fertility struggles or need to navigate fertility and cancer treatment, then get in touch with me ☎️
