Suffering from Infertility? Know the Step Wise Approach

In today’s scenario, almost 27.5 million couples are suffering from infertility and almost every sixth couple is facing this problem. Infertility is the inability of a couple to bear a child when using no contraception for a period of 1 year. This could be due to the male not being able to contribute to conception or the female not being able to get pregnant. Though the female is attributed to be the reason very often, almost 50% of infertility cases are due to issues with the male.

  • Advanced Marital Age and Delaying Parenthood: With females choosing to marry late and have children later in life, even as late as 40 years, infertility is on the rise. As per studies, female fertility is believed to reduce after 30 years.
  • Obesity: With changing lifestyles, obesity has become an epidemic in both women and men, leading to infertility.
  • Eating Disorders: Leads to obesity and poor health overall, leading to infertility.
  • Increased Stress Levels: This leads to strained relationships. Impotence in men, poor egg quality and erectile dysfunction are all caused by increased stress levels, leading to infertility.
  • Excessive or Lack of Exercise: Lack of exercise leads to obesity and overall lethargy. Over-exercising, on the other hand, leads to erectile dysfunction.
