These 5 things are the common cause of infertility

Pregnancy is a difficult process, for which it is very important for a man and a woman to be physically healthy. The dream of starting a family can remain unfulfilled due to any deficiency in one of the aspects.

 Anyone trying to start a family should be aware of common health conditions that can affect the ability to conceive.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)

Women of reproductive age are affected by PCOS, a hormonal condition. Polycystic ovaries, high androgen levels, and irregular menstrual cycles are the main symptoms. Women with PCOS may have irregular or absent ovulation, making it challenging for them to get pregnant. Treatments to induce ovulation, medication to regulate menstrual cycles, and lifestyle modifications are often used to manage PCOS.

Endometriosis

Endometriosis, which often affects the ovaries, fallopian tubes and pelvic lining, is caused by tissue similar to the lining of the inside of the uterus growing outside the uterus. Infertility, painful menstrual periods and heavy bleeding can result from this disease. Endometriosis can impede an egg’s ability to be fertilized or implanted in the uterus. Hormone therapy, pain management and endometrial tissue excision surgery are available for treatment.

Decreased male fertility

About thirty to forty percent of infertility cases are due to male factors. Factors such as insufficient sperm count, low motility and irregular sperm shape can make a man’s chances of becoming a father more difficult. Male infertility can occur due to many reasons such as hormone imbalances, genetic disorders, lifestyle choices (such as smoking and drinking too much alcohol) and specific medical procedures. Assisted reproductive technologies such as IVF, medication and lifestyle modifications can be used to treat male infertility.

Thyroid Disorders

Both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism can affect fertility. Thyroid hormones are necessary to regulate ovulation and the menstrual cycle. These hormonal imbalances can result in irregular menstruation and other fertility problems. Treating thyroid problems with the right medication and close monitoring can help restore fertility.

Uterine and tubal problems

Problems with the fallopian tubes or the internal structure of the uterus may impede conception. Diseases including noncancerous growths, polyps, and scar tissue in the uterus may affect embryo implantation. Damaged or blocked fallopian tubes may prevent sperm from reaching the egg or prevent a fertilized egg from traveling to the uterus. Surgical procedures or assisted reproductive technologies may be needed to address these concerns.
