Infertility

Infertility primarily refers to the biological inability of a person to contribute to conception. Infertility may also refer to the state of a woman who is unable to carry a pregnancy to full term. There are many biological causes of infertility, some which may be bypassed with medical intervention. Or alternatively a couple can't get pregnant

Reproductive endocrinologists, the doctors specializing in infertility, consider a couple to be infertile if:

• The couple has not conceived after 12 months of contraceptive-free intercourse if the female is under the age of 34. 12 months is the lower reference limit for Time to Pregnancy (TTP) by the World Health Organization.
• The couple has not conceived after 6 months of contraceptive-free intercourse if the female is over the age of 35 (declining egg quality of females over the age of 35 account for the age-based discrepancy as when to seek medical intervention).

Alternatively, the NICE guidelines define infertility as failure to conceive after regular unprotected sexual intercourse for 2 years in the absence of known reproductive pathology.

Subfertility

ouples with primary infertility have never been able to conceive,while, on the other hand, secondary infertility is difficulty conceiving after already having conceived (and either carried the pregnancy to term or had a miscarriage). Technically, secondary infertility is not present if there has been a change of partners.

Trying to get pregnant?

Pregnancy is not always easy to achieve. Some couples can get pregnant just by thinking about it. While others can try for years and not achieve a pregnancy. Conception is based on an intricate series of events. Ovulation and copulation need to be timed well for pregnancy to occur. You really do need to watch the calendar. Start timing from the end of the females mentruation. When you take into consideration all the variables, it is a wonder babies are born at all.
