Infertility

Female infertility involves difficulties in achieving pregnancy despite regular, unprotected intercourse over a period of time. Factors influencing fertility can include ovulation issues, reproductive tract conditions, and age-related changes. Diagnosis typically involves a range of tests and evaluations, including hormonal assessments and imaging. Lifestyle adjustments, and assisted reproductive technologies, customised to the individual’s needs and circumstances are some of the treatment options for infertility in women.

Causes
Causes of female infertility can include ovulation disorders, blocked fallopian tubes, endometriosis, and age-related factors. Lifestyle choices like smoking and excessive alcohol consumption, along with underlying health conditions such as diabetes and thyroid issues, may also contribute to female infertility. A comprehensive evaluation often helps identify the specific factors affecting fertility in women, guiding appropriate treatment strategies.
Symptoms
Female infertility may present symptoms like irregular menstrual cycles or irregular periods, heavy or painful periods, sometimes absence of menstruation. Occasionally, pelvic pain might present too. Hormonal changes, such as skin issues, reduced libido, and hair growth abnormalities like male pattern baldness and unwanted hair growth known as hirsutism might also be seen.
Risk Complications
Female infertility can include risk complications like emotional stress, anxiety, and depression. Potential medical risks are associated with treatments like hormone therapy and assisted reproductive technologies such as ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) and multiple pregnancies. Fertility outcomes and overall well-being are impacted by long-term health conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and endometriosis.
Treatments
Treatments for female infertility include lifestyle changes, apart from hormone therapy and medications for stimulating ovulation. Other common treatments include assisted reproductive technologies such as the intrauterine insemination (IUI) and in vitro fertilization (IVF). To address conditions like blocked fallopian tubes or endometriosis, surgical interventions may be needed. Each treatment plan is personalised to specific needs and underlying causes.

A comprehensive evaluation often helps identify the specific factors affecting fertility in women, guiding appropriate treatment strategies.

Pelvic Inflammatory Disease
Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) is an infection of the female reproductive organs. Sexually transmitted infections like chlamydia and gonorrhea are usually the cause for PID. Pelvic pain, abnormal discharge and fever are the symptoms of PID. Early diagnosis through pelvic exams and lab tests is crucial. Prompt care and antibiotics can help in preventing complications such as infertility.
Endometriosis
Female infertility involves difficulties in achieving pregnancy despite regular, unprotected intercourse over a period of time. Factors influencing fertility can include ovulation issues, reproductive tract conditions, and age-related changes. Diagnosis typically involves a range of tests and evaluations, including hormonal assessments and imaging. Lifestyle adjustments, and assisted reproductive technologies, customised to the individual’s needs and circumstances are some of the treatment options for infertility in women.
Recurrent Pregnancy Loss (RPL)
Recurrent Pregnancy Loss (RPL) is a disheartening experience of two or more consecutive miscarriages before the 20th week or the fifth month of pregnancy. This usually affects about 1-2% of women and a range of genetic, anatomical, or hormonal issues can be the possible causes. With accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment, most of the couples can achieve a successful pregnancy.
Sexual dysfunction
Sexual dysfunction in women comes with issues such as low libido, difficulty with arousal, pain during intercourse, or inability to get orgasm. This can crop from medical conditions, hormonal imbalances or psychological factors. Women can overcome sexual dysfunction issues and improve their overall well-being, with the appropriate approach that includes therapy, lifestyle changes or medical treatments.
Menstrual Disorders
Menstrual disorders, like the heavy bleeding, irregular cycles, and amenorrhea, disrupt hormone levels and ovulation lead to infertility. These irregularities may lead to prevention of egg release or hinder the process of implantation. Diagnosis involves tracking menstrual patterns and hormonal assessments. Medications to regulate cycles, assisted reproductive technologies and lifestyle changes are the treatment options to support fertility.
Uterine Scars
Uterine scars usually result from infections, surgeries, or trauma to the uterus. They potentially affect fertility and menstrual health. Cesarean sections and previous surgeries also stand as common causes for uterine scars. Pain, irregular bleeding, or difficulties during pregnancy are some of the complications of uterine scarring. Imaging and medical evaluation are involved for diagnosis, with treatment options like medications, surgical interventions for managing symptoms and improving reproductive health.
Uterine Septum
A uterine septum is an abnormality where a fibrous or muscular partition divides the uterine cavity. This is a congenital condition that can lead to reproductive issues like recurrent miscarriages or difficulties in holding a pregnancy to term. Hysteroscopy or ultrasound are the imaging techniques typically opted for diagnosis. Surgical removal of the septum is a treatment usually involved to improve reproductive outcomes.
Low Ovarian Reserve
Reduced number of healthy eggs in the ovaries is often referred to low ovarian reserve. This condition leading to infertility is usually caused by aging, genetic factors, or medical treatments. It is diagnosed through hormone tests and ultrasound. Fertility medications, lifestyle changes or assisted reproductive technologies like IVF may be the treatment options to help improve chances of conception.
Polyps
Polyps develop in the cervix or uterus. These are non-cancerous growths which often cause pain, irregular menstrual bleeding and lead to infertility. Ultrasound or hysteroscopy are typically diagnosis. Depending on size and symptoms, treatment options include medication or surgical removal. To prevent complications and improve reproductive health, early detection and treatment play a crucial role.
Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome / Polysystic Ovarian Disease (PCOS/PCOD)
Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) and Polycystic Ovarian Disease (PCOD) are common hormonal disorders affecting women of reproductive age. They lead to irregular periods or menstrual cycles, cysts in ovaries, and symptoms like weight gain, acne, and excessive growth of facial and body hair. Diagnosis involves hormonal tests and ultrasound. Lifestyle changes, medications, and fertility treatments usually advised to manage symptoms and improve reproductive health.
Fallopian Tube Disorders
Fallopian tube disorders like scarring and blockages can lead or obstruct the passage of eggs from the ovaries to the uterus, causing infertility. Pelvic inflammatory disease, previous surgeries and endometriosis are usually the causes for fallopian tube disorders. HSG or laparoscopy are the imaging tests done for diagnosing these disorders. Medications, minimally invasive procedures assisted reproductive technologies like IVF are the treatments for these.
Fibroids
Adhesions are scar tissue bands that usually form between tissues or organs, often after infection or surgery. They can lead to infertility by interfering with the functionality of the reproductive organs. Diagnosis usually involves imaging techniques like ultrasound or laparoscopy. Treatment for adhesions may require surgical procedures to release them the and support overall health.
