ABSTRACT
Background: Obesity has been related to infertility since patients with
body mass greater than 30 k/m2 are anovulatory and has also been shown that with the loss of 11% of central fat and the reduction of 2 to 5% by
weight those patients have a greater chance of achieving pregnancy.
Given the nutritional alterations about infertility that it is necessary to
explore what is the consumption average of nutrients that make up the
dietary pattern, known body composition and establish of nutritional
therapeutic strategies.
Objective: Analyze the body composition and eating habits in infertile
women.
Material and method: A descriptive and observational study was conducted
in thirty-two infertile women by consecutive cases of October
2011 to January 2012, anthropometry and body fat were performed.
There was applied reminder of 24 hours and the frequency of food
consumption. Body composition and dietary pattern of these patients
were calculated. Nutritional guidance was provided according to individual
requirements.
Results: Studied 32 patients, with average age of 32 years old. The mean
BMI was 28.20 kg/m
2±1. 5 in body composition: kg of fat of 29.44
kg±4.18, fat-free mass, 3.87 kg±4.50% of body fat 43.05±4. 8, fiber
consumption was 12.79 kg±14.10 g, with low consumption of fruits and
vegetables, saturated fats were high with a 37.63% ± 11 manual angle
adjustment 22,203, cholesterol 800 mg ± 217 and the iron was found
below the recommendations of 11.74 mg ± 5.18. The SPSS program
was used, Version 15 for statistical analysis.
Conclusions:Overweight, obesity, the increased percentage of body fat,
the high intake of fats and the deficiency in the intake of some vitamins
and minerals are some of the factors interfering on fertility.
