Infertility OBGYN Specialist

Infertility means not being able to get pregnant after one year of trying (or six months if a woman is 35 or older). Some women get pregnant but are unable to stay pregnant. They are also considered to be infertile.

Pregnancy is the result of a process that has many steps. Infertility can happen if there are problems with any of these steps listed below. To get pregnant:

  •  A woman’s body must release an egg from one of her ovaries(ovulation).
  •  The egg must go through a fallopian tube toward the uterus (womb).
  •  A man’s sperm must join with (fertilize) the egg along the way.
  •  The fertilized egg must attach to the inside of the uterus (implantation).
  •  Most cases of female infertility are caused by problems with ovulation.
  • There are no eggs to be fertilized, without ovulation. Irregular or absent menstrual periods are signs that a woman is not ovulating normally.

Ovulation problems are often caused by polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). PCOS is a hormone imbalance problem which can interfere with normal ovulation and is the most common cause of female infertility.

Less common causes of fertility problems in women include:

  •  Blocked fallopian tubes due to pelvic inflammatory disease, endometriosis, or • surgery for an ectopic pregnancy
  •  Physical problems with the uterus
  •  Uterine fibroids, which are non-cancerous clumps of tissue and muscle on the walls of the uterus.

Many things can change a woman's ability to have a baby. These include:

  • Age
  • Smoking
  • Excess alcohol use
  • Stress
  • Poor diet
  • Athletic training
  • Being overweight or underweight
  • Sexually transmitted infections (STIs)
  • Health problems that cause hormonal changes, such as polycystic ovarian syndrome and primary ovarian insufficiency
