Overview

Fertility Medicine is a branch of medicine that encompasses treating a variety of reproductive conditions — causing infertility — as well as preventing them. A diagnosis of infertility means you haven’t been able to get pregnant after a year of trying to conceive. If you’re a woman over 35 years, it means you haven’t been able to get pregnant after 6 months of trying. Women who are able to conceive, but are unable to carry a pregnancy to term may also be diagnosed with infertility.

A woman who’s never been able to get pregnant will be diagnosed with primary infertility. A woman who’s had at least one successful pregnancy in the past will be diagnosed with secondary infertility. However, infertility isn’t just a woman’s issue. Men can be infertile too. In fact, men and women are equally likely to have fertility problems.

Male infertility

Generally speaking, infertility in men is related to issues with the following:

Effective production of sperm
Sperm count, or the number of sperm
Shape of the sperm
Movement of the sperm, which includes both the wiggling motion of the sperm themselves and the transport of the sperm through the tubes of the male reproductive system.

Risk factors affecting male fertility

Older age
Smoking or tobacco chewing
Heavy use of alcohol
Being overweight or obese
Exposure to toxins, such as pesticides, herbicides, and heavy metals

Female infertility

Female infertility can be caused by a variety of factors that affect or interfere with the following biological processes:

Ovulation, when the mature egg is released from the ovary
Fertilization, which occurs when sperm meets the egg in the fallopian tube after traveling through the cervix and uterus.
Implantation, which occurs when a fertilized egg attaches to the lining of the uterus where it can then grow and develop into a baby.

Risk factors affecting female fertility

Increasing age
Smoking or chewing tobacco
Heavy use of alcohol
Being overweight, obese, or significantly underweight
Having certain sexually transmitted infections (STIs) that can damage the reproductive system
