Evidence check: CRP Entzündung in the context of fertility

CRP (C-reactive protein) is an established inflammation marker. Chronically elevated CRP levels may indicate systemic inflammation, which is linked to fertility issues such as endometriosis, PCOS, or pelvic inflammatory disease. The evidence is mostly from observational studies (human-observational), not RCTs. A CRP test alone is insufficient for fertility assessment; it must be interpreted alongside other parameters (e.g., hormones, cycle, clinical findings). MyBody-X does not offer a specific CRP test; the mentioned DNA tests analyze genetic predispositions for inflammation, not acute inflammatory status. Caveat: lifestyle factors (diet, stress, sleep) influence CRP more than single gene variants. For fertility evaluation, medical guidance is essential.
