What Is Infertility?
Infertility is the inability to conceive a pregnancy despite having regular, unprotected sexual intercourse for 12 months or more. For women above the age of 35 years, infertility may be diagnosed after 6 months of trying without success.
Infertility can affect both men and women, and in many cases, it is a shared condition where multiple factors contribute. At Matritwa IVF, we believe infertility is a medical condition, not a personal failure—and with the right care, many couples can achieve their dream of parenthood.
Types of Infertility
1. Primary Infertility
When a couple has never been able to conceive.
2. Secondary Infertility
When a couple has conceived at least once in the past but is unable to conceive again.
Both types are common and treatable with proper evaluation and fertility care.
Common Causes of Infertility
Causes of Female Infertility
Irregular or absent ovulation (PCOS, hormonal imbalance)
Blocked or damaged fallopian tubes
Endometriosis
Uterine abnormalities (fibroids, polyps)
Age-related decline in egg quality
Thyroid disorders or other hormonal issues
Causes of Male Infertility
Low sperm count or poor sperm motility
Abnormal sperm shape
Hormonal imbalance
Varicocele (enlarged veins in the scrotum)
Infections or genetic conditions
Lifestyle factors (smoking, alcohol, stress)
Unexplained Infertility
In some cases, standard tests may not reveal a clear cause. This is known as unexplained infertility, and advanced fertility treatments can still offer successful outcomes.
How Common Is Infertility?
Infertility affects nearly 1 in 6 couples worldwide. With changing lifestyles, delayed marriages, stress, and medical conditions, infertility is becoming increasingly common—but so are effective treatments.
