Understanding Infertility
Infertility is a common problem that affects millions of people all
over the world. In the United States, nearly one in five couples
experience some form of infertility issue.
A comprehensive fertility evaluation is the first step in
determining why you have been unable to achieve
pregnancy and have a child. Keeping in mind that
conditions that lead to infertility can be caused by males or females, in
approximately 40% of infertility cases the cause rests solely with the male
partner. In 30% of cases, both partners have conditions that may lead to
infertility. In some cases, the exact cause of infertility may never be
known. Once the cause of your infertility is determined, we will recommend
the proper course of treatment that offers the best chance of you and
your partner enjoying a happy, healthy baby.
If you are under the age of 35 and you and/or your partner have been trying
to conceive for a year without success, we recommend that you contact us
to discuss the matter and come in for an evaluation.
If you are over the age of 35 and have been unable to conceive for six
months, we recommend that you come in for a fertility evaluation.
Women who are experiencing irregular menstrual cycles or are no longer
having a menstrual cycle should also consider evaluation. Given that fertility
declines with age, it is important to act quickly if you are having difficulty
conceiving a child.
