Infertility

Infertility is the inability to conceive after one year of regular, unprotected intercourse (or six months for women over 35). It affects both men and women and can be caused by various medical, hormonal, and lifestyle factors. Obstetricians and gynecologists specialize in diagnosing and treating infertility through medical evaluations, lifestyle modifications, and advanced reproductive technologies.

Causes of Infertility:

1. Female Infertility Causes

Ovulation Disorders – PCOS, thyroid imbalances, premature ovarian failure.
Blocked Fallopian Tubes – Due to infections, endometriosis, or past surgeries.
Uterine Conditions – Fibroids, polyps, or congenital abnormalities.
Hormonal Imbalances – Affecting egg production and implantation.
Age-Related Decline – Decreased egg quality and ovarian reserve.

2. Male Infertility Causes

Low Sperm Count or Poor Sperm Quality – Due to hormonal imbalances, infections, or lifestyle factors.
Erectile Dysfunction or Ejaculation Issues – Affecting sperm delivery.
Varicocele – Enlarged veins in the scrotum affecting sperm production.

Diagnosis & Evaluation

Blood Tests & Hormonal Analysis – To check reproductive hormone levels.
Ovulation Tracking – Ultrasound and hormone monitoring to assess egg release.
Hysterosalpingography (HSG) – X-ray test to check for blocked fallopian tubes.
Semen Analysis – Evaluating sperm count, motility, and morphology.
