Overview
Are you trying to have a baby for many years but have had no luck? If you’re under 35 and have been actively trying to conceive for 12 months or more without luck, there are chances that you or your partner might have infertility.
At this stage, it’s high time you consulted an expert. A fertility expert will perform some examinations to establish what obstructs your attempts to conceive.
Here’s an informative blog that covers everything you should know about infertility.
Everything You Need To Know About Infertility
What is Infertility?
Every couple wishes to start a family at a particular time. Some couples can naturally conceive, while others face difficulties. Some underlying issues can affect one’s fertility and prevent conceiving naturally. In this case, infertility is described as the inability to conceive after a year of trying.
Getting pregnant isn’t something that is just related to ladies. Infertility affects men too. Also, in some couples, male spouses can contribute to infertility. Many reasons, ranging from erectile dysfunction to genetic flaws, can cause men to have difficulty creating quality sperm for their eggs or ejaculating said sperm. Any male infertility can be diagnosed with a sperm count test (also known as a semen analysis) or a blood test.
After all, you’ve had your tests and have a diagnosis report for your infertility. The further step is that your infertility expert can put together a treatment plan for you.
Expect to have a variety of changes, including lifestyle modifications, fertility medicines, surgical treatments, and even intrauterine insemination (IUI) or in vitro fertilization (IVF).
Symptoms & causes
A most typical symptom of infertility is failure to conceive. However, certain symptoms can signal infertility. These include:
In males,
- Hair loss in the beard, mustache, and chest.
- Sexual desires have shifted.

When to See a Fertility Specialist?
So, you’re attempting to conceive? You may have been paying close attention to your menstrual cycle and ovulation, having sex at the same time every month, and taking prenatal and fertility vitamins. But there’s still no positive news? So now it’s time for you to consult a fertility specialist. There are chances that you or your partner has some fertility issues that need medical assistance.
What can cause female and male infertility?
Certain conditions can cause infertility in men and women. In women, this includes:

How is infertility diagnosed?
As soon as you visit a fertility expert, your medical history and other medical details will be asked. Then, the doctor will suggest some physical examinations and tests like AMH test, Hysterosalpingography, hormone test, ovulation test, etc., to a female partner.
