Hey, you should know that infertility is the inability to, as expected, conceive a child or to carry a pregnancy to full term. But do you know that aside from many medical factors, lifestyle and environment could be fingered as probable causes of infertility? Infertility, by its nature, does not allow a confident diagnosis – some seemingly hopeless cases have normalized to the surprise of both the medics and concerned couples.

However, infertility doctors will consider you and your husband infertile if you, the female, is below 35 years old and have had unprotected intercourse for one whole year without conception or the ability to carry a pregnancy to full term. Also, because of age induced biological changes, a female who is over 35 years old, who has had unprotected intercourse for 6 months without conception or the ability to carry a pregnancy to full term is suspected to be infertile.

Infertility affects just about 10% of people of reproductive age, 15% of couples. Approximately 40% of infertility cases involve men. Even though most infertility cases are thought to be feminine, only about 40% involve a female factor, and the remainder involves both sexes. Fecundity for healthy couples in their mid-20s having regular sex is very high with a one-in-four chance of achieving pregnancy in any given month.

The American Society for Reproductive Medicine states that infertility affects about 6.1 million people in the U.S., equivalent to ten percent of the reproductive age population. Female infertility accounts for one third of infertility cases, male infertility for another third, combined male and female infertility for another 15%, and the remainder of cases is probably lifestyle or environmentally induced.

Primary infertility is when a couple have not been able to achieve conception within one full year, while secondary infertility is difficulty in conceiving after already having conceived and carried a normal pregnancy.

Apart from various medical conditions (e.g. hormonal), this may come as a result of age and stress felt to provide a sibling for a first child, technically, secondary infertility is not present if there has been a change of partners. Some women are infertile because their ovaries do not mature and release eggs. If this is confirmed to be the case, synthetic FSH can be given to stimulate eggs to mature in the ovaries.

Common factors that could cause female infertility are mistiming of intercourse by a couple, poor nutrition, exposure to harmful chemicals, badly treated STDs that have cased blocked fallopian tubes, diabetes mellitus, thyroid disorders, adrenal disease, liver disease, kidney disease, hypothalamic-pituitary factors, emotional disorder and environmental disadvantage.

You must make every effort to ensure that you do nothing to impair your health with your lifestyle, careless intercourse, poor eating habits and careless environmental considerations. Regular medical check up will help you detect any problems early enough and seek treatment from your physician. Do not neglect your environment as some environmental pollutants are also fingered as causes of infertility.
