High heels may affect a woman's fertility an expert claimed recently.
The trends for wearing killer heels may also affect your chances due to the 'unnatural' way the body tips forward when you wear shoes.
This is the first time that fertility has been mentioned if a woman wears shoes higher than five inches. Health and Fitness Expert David Moy told the Daily Mail:" If you value your health in any way at all then avoid these killer heels at all costs, they're just not worth the risk."
He added that the potential problems are caused when:" you wear heels as the pressure on the front of the foot causes you to compensate by excessive forward tilting of the pelvis."
This tilting allows the abdomen to spill forward and in doing so compressing internal organs in a condition called visceroptosis. If unchecked this can lead to menstrual dysfunctions increases I period pains as well as affecting the ability to conceive. "
