Breaking Down the Causes of Infertility in Delhi
You might have come across the term infertility many times but still lack a clear idea on it. To help you, it is a condition when females can not conceive despite a year of regular and unprotected intercourse. To further build the knowledge, let's understand the reasons behind infertility crises in Delhi: Causes of Infertility in Females:- Inability to Ovulate: Various factors like PCOS, premature menopause, reduced ovarian reserve, ageing, and hormonal disorders cause ovulation failure.
- Tubal Factors: Tubal disorders like tubal blockage can be a consequence of STDs (sexually transmitted diseases) like gonorrhoea infections and pelvic tuberculosis. This significant cause of infertility can be on one or both sides.
- Endometriosis: It is a condition when tissue growing in the uterus lining accidentally implants and develops at some other sites. Followed by scarring, it can block the fallopian tubes contributing to infertility.
- Structural Abnormalities: Uterine and cervix abnormalities like polyps, fibroids, and cervical stenosis can be a culprit to underlying sterility in females.
- Disturbed Sperm Quality and Quantity:
- Defects in Sperm Delivery: Conditions like premature ejaculation, blockage in testicles or genetic problems like cystic fibrosis can raise concerns of infertility in a male.
