Conceiving
and becoming pregnancy
are an absolutely complex phenomenon in humans.
Many biological factors work in perfect coordination
to enable conception. If any one of these factors
malfunction, it can result in infertility. Infertility
is generally the failure of conceive after 12
months of unprotected sex by a couple. Infertility
is fairly common. Unlike the common notion, infertility
is not a "woman's problem". Infertility
affects both men and women. Women problems account
for only one third of the infertility problems,
the rest depends on men factors, common problems
and unknown causes. Infertility does not mean
that a couple cannot have a child, it simply means
that pregnancy will be a little more challenging.

Healthy women under the age of
30 years have no reason to worry about infertility
unless they cross the one year barrier of continuous
efforts to conceive. Women above 30 have decreased
chances of conceiving with every passing year.
Women should consult their gynecologist for complete
evaluation. Women having no menstrual cycle, painful
menstrual cycles, endometriosis, repeated miscarriage
should seek immediate medical advice.

on cause, duration or problem, age of the women
and the concerns of the woman in question. Medication,
surgery, artificial insemination, assisted reproduction

after getting treatment. Becoming parents involves
both you and your partner. Involve them closely
in every decision you take. With support from
partners, family and friends will help you in
successfully coping the emotional and physical
challenges that are associated with infertility.
