First, women should not be too thin. Being underweight affects pregnancy.
In this age where thinness is the beauty, it seems more difficult to stop a woman who loves beauty from losing weight. However, blindly losing weight is really a misunderstanding. If you continue to lose weight blindly, you may not get the joy of "good figure" in the end, but you will be distressed by the poor fertility.
1, women who are too thin are less likely to get pregnant.
It has been gradually recognized that obese people have difficulty in pregnancy because the endocrine system related to ovulation and pregnancy is affected. But few people care, too thin will also hinder pregnancy. According to the British "Daily Mail" report, the study found that too thin women are less likely to get pregnant than overweight women.
2. Why do you get pregnant if you are too thin?
Healthy adult women, their body fat content accounts for about 25% ~ 30% of the whole body weight. In order to maintain normal physiological functions such as menstruation, pregnancy and breastfeeding, women's body fat content must reach more than 22% of their body weight. This is because the amount of adipose tissue is closely related to the metabolism of estrogen in women. Girls who lose weight regard "fat" as a natural enemy and eliminate it by any means, resulting in too little adipose tissue in the body and a decrease in estrogen level, thus affecting menstrual cramps and reproductive function. So people who are too thin often have low estrogen levels and are not easy to get pregnant. In addition, women who are too thin are prone to malnutrition, and the endometrium is like barren soil, so it is difficult for fertilized eggs to implant. Want fertile soil or slim figure? Girls, think twice!

Second, how much weight should be maintained before pregnancy?
So how do you know if you are thin or fat? You can't say that you have to lose weight if you feel fat; I think I'm thin, so I have to gain weight, right? After all, in everyone's eyes, the standard of being fat and thin is also very different. For example, two people of the same height, one is 85kg and the other is 70kg. Maybe in the eyes of 85kg people, 70kg people are thin ... so, we need to have a body mass index to judge whether we are fat or thin. Is your pre-pregnancy weight appropriate? What is the appropriate weight before pregnancy? Now we can generally use height and body mass index (BMI) to measure.
1, height and body mass index (BMI) = weight (kg) ÷ height (m) 2
Body mass index (BMI) is a body mass index, which is closely related to body fat. For example, if someone weighs 45 kilograms and is 1.55 meters tall, her body mass index is 45÷ 1.552= 18.73.
2. What is the appropriate weight before pregnancy?
If measured, your body mass index
For example, if the height is 1.55m, then your suitable weight can be1.552× 21= 50.45 (kg).
If the body mass index is lower than 19, such as height 1.55, and the weight is only1.552×19 = 45.64 (kg) or even lower, it is necessary to consider gaining weight.
Third, the precautions for thin women to gain weight
1, know your nutritional status.
Before you control your weight, you should fully understand your nutritional status, and ask a doctor for help in diagnosis if necessary, so as to adjust your diet purposefully and actively store nutrients with low content in your body. If the body is short of iron, you can eat more beef, animal liver, green vegetables, raisins and so on. Calcium deficiency can eat shrimp skin, dairy products and bean products. Everyone should check whether there are malnutrition diseases, such as anemia, calcium deficiency, iodine deficiency, vitamin deficiency and so on. If there is, it is necessary to treat related diseases. If there is no obvious deficiency, multivitamins, minerals and folic acid should be supplemented in the first three months of pregnancy.
2. The diet should be appropriate, but balanced.
It is necessary to appropriately change the amount of food to make the weight reach or approach the standard value, but not overeating or dieting. It is necessary to maintain a balanced diet and ensure a balanced intake of various nutrients in the body. A high-protein and high-calorie diet is the only way to gain weight. Concentrated protein and high-calorie foods, such as heavy cheesecake, small cakes, small cakes, chocolate and so on. Papain or comprehensive enzymes should be supplemented in time after meals to help digestion, so as to increase the digestion, absorption and utilization of food.
If you are not fat, you may want to go to the hospital to check whether there is something wrong with your stomach. If it is a gastrointestinal problem, it needs early treatment; If it is not bad digestion and absorption, then there is still hope to gain weight by persistently and appropriately increasing diet.
Although people nowadays are pursuing the beauty of bones, being too thin is actually unhealthy and has a certain impact on pregnancy. Therefore, female friends should never go on a diet to lose weight excessively, which may also cause certain harm to the body. Women who want to have children should pay more attention to their weight. If you are too thin, you should gain weight appropriately.
