CAUSES  OF INFERTILITY IN FEMALE

  1. FAILURE TO OVULATE

This accounts for 40 % cases of infertility in women. This can result from several causes

  • Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
  • Premature Menopause
  • Aging and Diminished Ovarian Reserve
  • Hormonal Disorders Such as Hypothyroidism or Raised Prolactin
  1. BLOCKED TUBES

Tubal block can be one-sided or both sided and is most often due to infections of the genital tract such as gonorrhoea or chlamydia. Pelvic tuberculosis is also a major cause of the tubal block

  1. ENDOMETRIOSIS

Endometriosis occurs when tissue that grows in the lining of uterus implants and grows in other locations. It causes scarring and can block fallopian tubes. This also disturbs the normal relationship of the ovary to tube. It can also cause infertility by damage to sperm and eggs and by preventing implantation.

  1. STRUCTURAL ABNORMALITIES

Sometimes abnormalities in the uterus or cervix can cause infertility.

  • Fibroids – sometimes fibroids can cause infertility by blocking the tubes or interfere with implantation.
  • Polyps – may interfere with implantation. However, many women who have fibroids and polyps do become pregnant.
  • Uterine abnormalities present from birth, such as an abnormally shaped uterus can cause problems becoming pregnant
  • Cervical stenosis or narrowing of the cervix
  • Sometimes cervix can’t produce good quality mucus to allow sperms to travel through the cervix into the uterus.
  1. UNEXPLAINED INFERTILITY
