Fertility issues in women can arise from several causes. One common issue is problems with ovulation, which means the egg is not released from the ovary properly. This can make it hard to get pregnant.
Another issue is blocked fallopian tubes. The fallopian tubes are pathways for the egg to meet the sperm, and if they are blocked, fertilization cannot occur.
Endometriosis is another condition that affects fertility. It happens when tissue similar to the lining inside the uterus grows outside of it, which can cause pain and make it difficult to become pregnant.
Understanding these issues can help in seeking the right medical care and treatment. If you have concerns about fertility, it is important to talk to a healthcare provider for guidance and support.
