Infertility is defined as the inability to conceive after one year of regular, unprotected sexual intercourse. It affects an estimated 1 in 8 couples, making it an extremely common issue.
Some key facts about infertility:
- It is often caused by problems in either the man or the woman, or a combination of both. Common causes include:
- Low sperm count, motility, or abnormal shape (male factor infertility)
- Ovulation disorders like PCOS or early menopause (female factor infertility)
- Damaged fallopian tubes, fibroids, endometriosis (female factor infertility)
- Advancing parental age
- Both men and women can undergo fertility testing to pinpoint the root cause. Common tests check things like:
- Hormone levels
- Sperm health parameters
- Ovulation patterns
- Uterine or fallopian tube blockages
- Depending on the cause, infertility treatments range from oral drugs that stimulate ovulation to high-tech procedures like IVF. The latter involves fertilizing the egg with sperm in a lab and then transferring the embryo into the uterus. Success rates vary.
