When to see the doctor Up to age 35, most doctors recommend trying to get pregnant for at least a year before testing or treatment. If you're between 35 and 40, discuss your concerns with your doctor after six months of trying.

Altered sperm migration Oestrogens play an important role in the receptivity and migration of spermatozoa since pre-ovulation mucus promotes this activity to a maximum. The presence of antisperm antibodies in the cervical mucus, as well as of certain pathogenic agents results in a reduced in-vivo sperm motility. These are possible causes of infertility.

Unexplained infertility Sometimes, the cause of infertility is never found. A combination of several minor factors in both partners could cause unexplained fertility problems. Although it's frustrating to get no specific answer, this problem may correct itself with time.

Uterine infertility Congenital abnormalities, intrauterine exposure to drugs, submucosalmyomas, polyps and adhesions of uterine cavity are among the uterine factors. Benign polyps or tumors (fibroids or myomas) are common in the uterus. Some can block fallopian tubes or interfere with implantation, affecting fertility. However, many women who have fibroids or polyps do become pregnant.

Sexually transmitted diseases Many sexually transmitted diseases (STD) can be indirectly associated with infertility. The probability of ectopic pregnancy is high with tubo-peritoneal infertility. The use of barrier contraceptive methods helps preventing sexually transmitted diseases.

Thank you! Female infertility can result from age, physical problems, hormone problems, and lifestyle or environmental factors. There are treatments available to help address many causes of female infertility, and there is also assisted reproductive technology, such as IVF, that can help some women get pregnant.
