Infertility refers to the inability to conceive a child after one year of regular, unprotected sexual intercourse. It can affect both men and women, and the causes can vary widely. Infertility is generally diagnosed when a couple fails to conceive after trying for at least a year.
Causes of Infertility in Women:
Ovulation Disorders:
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): A common hormonal disorder that affects ovulation.
Hypothalamic Dysfunction: A malfunction in the part of the brain that regulates ovulation.
Premature Ovarian Failure: Early loss of ovarian function, leading to a lack of eggs.
Luteal Phase Defect: An insufficient progesterone production after ovulation, affecting implantation.
Blocked or Damaged Fallopian Tubes:
Conditions like pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), endometriosis, or previous surgeries can block or damage the tubes, preventing sperm from reaching the egg or interfering with embryo transport
