What you want to know about infertility The failure of having a baby within a year without any contraception is referred to as infertility. There are many difficulties in infertility that are spiritual and material, other than the social difficulties seen in our country such as divorce or the desire of the husband to have another wife. Today, it is possible to solve many of the problems in infertility. WHAT IS INFERTILITY? The failure of having a baby within a year despite regular sexual activity of at least 2-3 times a week is called infertility. About 15% of the society has this problem. For a healthy couple, the probability of conception every month is 25-30%. This rate reaches 75% within a year and exceeds 85% at the end of 2 years. Thus, a couple should present to a doctor at the end of a year if conception does not occur. CAUSES OF INFERTILITY One third of the problems is caused by the male partner, one third is caused by the female partner, and one third is caused by both. The remaining 10% remains unexplained. The reasons for infertility related to the female partner include anovulation, obstruction of the fallopian tubes, congenital defects of the uterus (of the fallopian tubes), benign uterine tumors (myomas) and intra-uterine adnesions (uterine synechiae). The reasons related to the male partner include low seminal parameters or absence of spermatozoa (oligospermia or azoospermia), decreased motility (asthenospermia) or morphological defects in spermatozoa (teratozoospermia). Genetic reasons or chromosomal anomalies are also observed occasionally.
