2.  Having a baby of your own is considered one of
the most invaluable gifts of life. It is considered a
different type of accomplishment and fulfillment
in which the love of the couple for each other is
fortified. Unluckily, not all individuals are blessed
with a gift of childbirth. There are circumstances
when a married couple suffers problems in
getting pregnant even after a year or month of
regular contact or when a woman is incapable to
accomplish at least 7-9 months or full term
pregnancy. This is termed as Infertility.

3.  Several researches have been completed to give
information concerning the explanations on why
infertility occurs among couples. Although it is
widespread that most of the explanations are
because of complications on the part of the
female. Such as a female suffering issues in her
ovulation or when she is not ovulating at all. It is
imperative for a female to have his period
regularly and properly for this will influence her
fertility in the long run. Other factors which also
bring infertility to women are complications in
the uterus, tubal blockage, tubal ligations, etc.

4.  Obviously, the notorious reason for the
fertility problems of men and women today
can be attributed on the rising big amount of
individuals who have STDs (sexually
transmitted diseases). Sexually transmitted
diseases are not only deadly through the
passing of time but they also portray a
significant role in issues encountered in
getting pregnant among couples.

5.  Infertility can also be attributed on the age of a
woman. Each month, a female drops ten
thousand eggs. With this in mind, there actually
is a particular timeframe for a female wherein
she is naturally unable to get pregnant because
of the scarcity of egg cells. Females in their early
30s and late 20s are the ideal years for child birth
and child conceiving. On the other hand, fertility
problems in men are associated with their sperm
count. Generally, sperm disorders or
complications make a man infertile. This is why
tracking sperm counts are very imperative.

6.  Diseases such as Gonorrhea, Pelvic Inflammatory Disease
(PID), Endometriosis and Polycystic ovarian syndrome
(PCOS) also result to fertility problems between couples.
These diseases are very extreme medical concerns which
need intensive health care. Even though some of these
health problems can be healed just like PID which is a type
of inflammation of the pelvis. Conception can be
accomplished if a married couple is eager to undertake a
procedure called IVF (in vitro fertilization). In vitro
fertilization is a very well-known process of fertilization or
reproduction in which the egg cell is inseminated by a
sperm outside the womb of a woman. This type of
procedure has been proven and tested effective but it is
sometimes expensive.

7.  In many cases, fertility problems can be
linked solely on the lifestyle of a person.
People always take for granted their vices like
use of illegal drugs, drinking, smoking and
weight-related diseases. What people do not
know is that these unhealthy habits have a
huge impact on the fertility of a person.
