🚻Infertility is a major social, societal and psychological problem. Many couples do not consult a doctor and receive the wrong and delayed treatment.
👩⚕️It is defined as the couple's inability to conceive for a period of one year (for those under 35 years old), and 6 months (for those over 35 years old), with unprotected sexual contact (at least twice a week).
Infertility affects 15% of couples of reproductive age.
🚻The male and female factors count for 35% each. In 20% we find both combined. 10% of cases are idiopathic, or unknown.
🔹Infertility is primary when there has never been a pregnancy, and secondary when there has been a pregnancy at least once with the current partner or another. It can be feminine or masculine (or both).
🔹With the right treatment, the chances of pregnancy for infertile couples can reach up to 85%.
