Fertility and Pregnancy: What role does Nutrition play?
Nutrition plays a pivotal role in fertility and pregnancy, influencing both the ability to conceive and the health of the developing fetus. Adequate intake of essential nutrients such as folic acid, iron, and omega-3 fatty acids is crucial for reproductive health. A balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins supports fertility by promoting hormonal balance and reproductive organ function. During pregnancy, proper nutrition is vital for fetal growth and development. Healthful eating habits contribute to a healthy weight, reducing the risk of complications. Additionally, maintaining hydration and avoiding harmful substances further supports optimal fertility and a healthy pregnancy journey.

Massive Transfusion Protocol (MTP) is a standardized medical procedure activated in cases of severe hemorrhage, typically involving the rapid administration of large volumes of blood products. The goal is to restore circulating volume, maintain hemostasis, and prevent the lethal triad of hypothermia, acidosis, and coagulopathy.
