A persons greatest joy and achievement in life is becoming a parent and sharing your life with a child. Unfortunately it may not come true to some people who find it difficult to conceive. Many people experience infertility or in other words the inability to achieve conception of an offspring.
Studies state that women deal with the majority of in fertility cases. Half of this is caused by the different conditions that women go through. The remaining cases of infertility have to deal with other unexplained cases as well as men's sperm disorder. when fertilization occurs a woman has to go through proper and regular menstrual processes to become pregnant. Ovulation is one of the most common causes of sterility. Such problems that can result to infertility include uterine problems, tubal blockage and preceding tubal ligation.
A woman's fertility is directly affected by her age. As a woman ages her ability to conceive naturally and normally decreases. In general a woman loses approximately a thousand egg cells per month. Certain transmitter diseases, or PCO as well as endometriosis, are conditions that could eventually lead to infertility.
Pelvic Inflammatory Disease or PID is another foremost cause of female sterility. Gonorrhea or Chlamydia are severe inflammation of the pelvis that can be caused by untreated cervical infections. These diseases can cause scarring in the fallopian tubes which subsequently causes a blockage when bacteria make its way through towards the uterus, ovaries and surrounding tissues. However, once PID has been successfully treated, pregnancy can often be achieved through in vitro fertilization
Another leading root of infertility is Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). It is a hormonal disorder that causes a disruption in a woman normal ovulation cycle. The lack of ability to ovulate normally or regularly is the reason why a woman with PCOS becomes sterile. Certain medication such as Metformin is capable in treating PCOS by correcting the body's hormone levels through the body's ability to absorb insulin.
In order to conceive successfully a couple needs to check their hormone levels. The hormones are produce by the pituitary, adrenal and thyroid glands as well as the hypothalamus and the pancreas. Incurring diseases that will affect any of these can lead to infertility.
A couple's lifestyle could be a non medical reason that causes infertility. Smoking, too much alcohol consumption, use and abuse of illicit medication, weight problems, various sexually diseases and even too much stress or exercise are just some factors that can lead a person to be sterile.
Many failed attempts to conceive can cause extreme stress for a couple who is trying really hard to do so. Not to mention that sometimes doctors are unable to pinpoint the problems. They label this as unexplained fertility. The best way to handle this is for the couple not to put too much pressure on themselves and try to get a better understanding of the woman's ovulation cycle in order to successfully conceive. The main goal is to have a s little stress as possible.
