Infertility Symptoms - Definitions

When a couple cannot have a baby after 12 months of regular and unprotected intercourse, they can be classified infertile. Infertility is defined as the inability to reproduce.

Members of the couple react differently after being diagnosed to be infertile. Extreme reactions often come from couples who are childless.

Infertile couples who’ve never had children are classified under primary infertility.

On the other hand, secondary infertility describes the condition wherein couples who have successfully become pregnant once are having difficulties in getting pregnant again.

The Male Factor

Various factors, both emotional and physical, can lead to infertility.

Around 30 to 40% of infertility cases in men are attributed to maleness factors like retrograde ejaculation, low sperm count, scarring from STDs, hormone problems, environmental pollutants, and others.

Frequent marijuana use and intake of prescription drugs like cimetidine, nitorfurantoin, and spironolactone may affected sperm count.

Being Female

Pelvic infection, scarring from STDs, endometriosis, ovulation dysfunction, fallopian tube abnormality, tumors, hormonal imbalances, and even poor nutrition are some of these “female factors.” These are responsible for 40 to 50% of infertility in couples.

Around 10 to 30% of infertility cases are attributed to risk factors from both male and female and other unknown causes.

It is estimated that just 10 to 20% of couples fail to conceive after a year. It is essential for couples to keep trying to conceive for a year at the very least.

Age Influenced Factors

Couples who are healthy, are below 30 years old, and have intercourse frequently have just a 25 to 30 per cent chance a month of conceiving. Women in their 20s are at the peak of their fertility. Pregnancy for women more than 35 years old is 10% less, even lower for those over 40.

Other Causes Not Age Related

Infertility is not solely blamed on age-related factors. The following are also considered major risks to infertility:

* Having had sex with more than one partner
* Sexually transmitted infections
* Pelvic inflammatory disease history
* History of epididymitis or orchitis in men
* Mumps in males
* Male varicocle
* Health background citing exposure to DES (both male and female)
* Eating and food disorders among females
* Irregular menstruation and anovulation
* Endometriosis
* Defects of the uterus (myomas) or blockage of the cervix
* Long-term disease like diabetes

Infertility Factors - Age, Sex & Other

Sunday, March 7th, 2010

 

Infertility Symptoms - Definitions

When a couple is unsuccessful at having a baby after 12 months of unprotected, regular intercourse, they are considered infertile. Infertility is the incapacity to reproduce.

Members of the couple react differently after being diagnosed to be infertile. Extreme reactions often come from couples who are childless.

Infertility, in couples that have never had a child, is referred to as primary infertility.

On another note, couples who classify under secondary infertility are those who have had a baby before but are now having trouble getting pregnant once more.

The Male Factor

Various factors, both emotional and physical, can lead to infertility.

Male-exclusive factors such as low sperm count, retrograde ejaculation, scarring from sexually transmitted diseases, hormone deficiency, and impotence, make up around 30-40% of infertility cases.

Intake of prescription drugs like nitrofurantoin, cimetidine and spironolactone and even frequent marijuana use can negatively affect sperm count.

The Woman Factor

Scarring from STDs, hormonal imbalances, ovulation dysfunction, endometriosis, ovarian cysts, poor nutrition, pelvic infection, tumors, and fallopian tube abnormality are examples of “female factors.” These are the primary causes of 40 to 50 per cent of infertility cases.

Factors from both male and female, including other unknown causes, make up 10 to 30% of infertility cases.

It is projected that just 10 to 20% fail to get pregnant after trying for one year. It is essential for couples to keep trying to conceive for a year at the very least.

Age Sensitive Causes

Healthy couples who are under 30 years old and have sex regularly have a 25 to 30% chance monthly of getting pregnant. A woman is most fertile when she’s in her 20s. The success rate for women aged 35 and over is less than 10%, and this even much lower for those older than 40.

More Non Age Related Causes

Infertility is not solely blamed on age-related factors. Infertility may also be increased due to the following:

* Having had sex with more than one partner
* STDs
* History of pelvic inflammatory disease
* Orchitis or epididymitis history in males
* Mumps in males
* Abnormal vein enlargement in scrotum
* A health history including DES exposure (males and females)
* Eating problems among females
* Irregular menstrual cycles and anovulation
* Endometriosis
* Defects of the uterus (myomas) or blockage of the cervix
* Long-term disease like diabetes

Infertility Symptoms - Sex, Age and Lifestyle Factors

Wednesday, January 27th, 2010

Symptoms from Infertility - Definitions

When a couple is unsuccessful at having a baby after 12 months of unprotected, regular intercourse, they are considered infertile. Infertility is the incapacity to reproduce.

Couples respond in different ways after being told they are infertile. Severe reactions occur more frequently among childless couples.

Infertility, in couples that have never had a child, is referred to as primary infertility.

On another note, couples who classify under secondary infertility are those who have had a baby before but are now having trouble getting pregnant once more.

Maleness

Several emotional and physical factors can cause infertility.

Male-exclusive factors such as low sperm count, retrograde ejaculation, scarring from sexually transmitted diseases, hormone deficiency, and impotence, make up around 30-40% of infertility cases.

Sperm count is greatly affected by certain factors like frequent marijuana use or intake of prescription medicine such as nitrofurantoin, cimetidine and spironolactone.

Femaleness

Ovarian cysts, tumors, pelvic infection, hormonal imbalances, ovarian dysfunction, enometriosis, fallopian tube abnormalities, scarring from STD are some examples of “female factors.” These comprise 40 to 50 % of infertility cases among couples.

It is estimated that just 10 to 20% of couples fail to conceive after a year. It is essential for couples to keep trying to conceive for a year at the very least.

Age-Related Factors

Couples who are healthy, are below 30 years old, and have intercourse frequently have just a 25 to 30 per cent chance a month of conceiving. A woman is most fertile when she’s in her 20s. The success rate for women aged 35 and over is less than 10%, and this even much lower for those older than 40.

More Non Age Related Causes
