Infertility is generally defined as not being able to get pregnant after one year (or longer) of unprotected vaginal sexual intercourse.
Seek professional care if you experience any of the following symptoms
Generally, Infertility can be related to:
Male infertility occurs when a man cannot start a pregnancy with a female partner. This can be due to low sperm production, absent sperm, poor sperm function, or blockage in the sperm delivery pathway. There are a wide variety of causes of male infertility.
Uterine hypoplasia, also known as a hypoplastic uterus, occurs when a girl is born with an abnormally small uterus. Symptoms may include failure to start having periods at puberty (primary amenorrhea), abdominal pain, a small or no vaginal opening, or infertility.
This is a rare condition that can occur after uterine procedures and is diagnosed by findings bands of scar tissue (adhesions) in the uterine lining. While a dilation and curettage procedure is the most common reason patients can develop Asherman Syndrome, most patients can safely undergo such procedures without any complications. It can also occur from some genital infections such as Tuberculosis, and other less common conditions.
