Infertility - Vitality Health Center

What is infertility?

Infertility is defined as the inability to conceive a child after 12 months or more of regular unprotected sexual intercourse. It affects an estimated 1 in 8 couples in the United States. Some key facts about infertility:

• It can be caused by problems in either the man or woman, or both. Common causes include irregular ovulation, poor sperm quality, fallopian tube damage, and uterine abnormalities.
• Age is a major factor, especially in women. Fertility starts to decline after age 35 and drops rapidly after 40.
• Lifestyle factors like smoking, alcohol use, obesity, stress, and environmental toxins can negatively impact fertility.
• There are two main types of infertility - primary and secondary. Primary means the couple has never been able to conceive. Secondary means they have conceived in the past but are now unable to.
• Basic testing starts with analysis of the woman's ovulation and the man's semen quality. Further tests like an HSG, laparoscopy, or endometrial biopsy may be needed to identify specific causes.
• Treatment depends on the cause but may include fertility drugs, ART procedures, surgery, or lifestyle changes. ART includes methods like IVF and IUI.
• Dealing with infertility can be emotionally exhausting. Support groups and counseling are important to help couples cope.

So in summary, infertility is a complex disorder with many potential causes. While challenging, there are usually treatments available depending on the specific diagnosis. The key is proper testing and analysis to identify factors preventing pregnancy.
