Abstract
Lifestyle factors, which include the practices we adopt in our daily life, have a significant role in shaping our overall health. These lifestyle choices are mainly centered on personal preferences and our surrounding social environment. In addition to lifestyle factors, we continuously interact with our environment, which impacts physiology. Several factors have been claimed to affect women’s fertility; lifestyle-related factors, in particular, have received great attention in the last decade. Due to societal and professional pressure, childbearing age in women has gradually shifted to the 30s. Delayed age of childbearing along with modern lifestyle offers a wider window of opportunity for various lifestyle and genetic perturbations to penetrate to affect fertility. While clinical studies have strengthened a direct correlation between lifestyle, environment, and female reproductive health; experimental studies on animal models have investigated their mechanism of action. In most instances, these factors target the neuroendocrine pathways, resulting in metabolic derangements. This review aims to dissect the plausible interconnection of lifestyle and environmental factors with various neuroendocrine pathways and to discuss how it can affect the female physiology in the long-term, resulting in reproductive incompetence.
