Causes Of Infertility
  • When you start asking about the causes of
    infertility consider yourself being on the right
    path to solving the problem of infertility.
    Acknowledging that a problem exists is a good
    start towards winning the battle of infertility.
  • For those who have been trying for almost a
    year to conceive without success, it is best to
    visit a good doctor to get a clear picture of
    what is happening and what can be done to
    overcome it? While in most cases of infertility,
    the reasons are known, in some it is unexplained.
    Nevertheless, though this infertility journey
    (marked by long wait outside the doctors clinic,
    tests and treatment) is arduous, remember you are
    not alone. There are many out there, struggling
    just like you to understand and take steps to
    rectify the problem. Lets therefore begin by
    revisiting the basics. What causes infertility?

While the reasons are many, here are some basic
ones
  • The basic point to understand is that the steps
    that lead to ovulation and fertilization needs to
    happen at the correct time and in the right order
    for a woman to get pregnant. Some issues that
    cause infertility could be present since birth
    (in both men and women) or could develop
    gradually as they grow. It is also important to
    understand that contrary to the belief of Indian
    society, infertility could be due to problems
    with men as well, not just with women.
  • Lets first look at the most common medical
    causes of infertility that affect our chances of
    getting pregnant.
