Posted @withregram • @allbodieshealth Here's a fun fact about conception:⁠
⁠
We've already debunked that the sperm are totally in charge, powering through to make it to the egg as it just passively waits there. We know that the sperm wouldn't survive at all if it weren't for cervical mucus. ⁠
⁠
But did you know that it's actually not just the fastest sperm to swim, wins? Turns out, sperm spend hours, even days, being matured by cells inside the...testes?⁠
Nope. The FALLOPIAN TUBES!!!⁠
⁠
This process is called capacitation. The cells initiate chemical reactions that change the sperm's membrane, allowing the sperm to sense the presence of the egg and to travel towards it, as well as to be able to fuse with the egg once it finds it. ⁠
⁠
You're welcome!⁠

Posted @withregram • @living_wellnesscentre October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month. This is a month to support individuals who have experienced loss during pregnancy, the loss of a child, pregnancy after loss or are unable to conceive.

Our centre recognizes this month is important as we often support many women who have suffered from loss, who suffer from grief and heartbreak. We may not understand what you are experiencing, but we will sit with you, listen with you and support your in your fertility journey.

We see our amazing patients who show strength, courage, pain love and faith. For anyone trying to conceive, we will be by your side during your journey. For any mom with an angel baby or babies up above, we will always be thinking of you and your babies.

Tomorrow the @living_wellnesscentre team will be walking/running together in the Butterfly Run (@butterflyrunvancouver ) to support and recognize all of these amazing mothers who have suffered loss, miscarriage and infertility.
