CHICAGO (FOX 32 News) - We often hear about the health benefits of yoga, and now there's word it may also help women conceive.
In one of the largest controlled studies to date, the Fertility Centers of Illinois and Pulling Down the Moon analyzed the impact of yoga on anxiety in fertility patients.
The study found after a six-week yoga program, there was a 20 percent reduction in anxiety and stress in the yoga group.
Dr. Jennifer Hirshfeld-Cyrton, reproductive specialist with Fertility Centers of Illlinois and Beth Heller, the co-founder of pulling down the moon, joined us to talk more about the topic.
