Fertility Issues

What are fertility issues?

Are you having trouble getting pregnant after trying for several months? Learn what causes fertility issues and how they can be evaluated and treated.
Fertility issues refer to difficulty conceiving or carrying a pregnancy to term. They can affect women, men, or both partners and may be related to hormonal imbalances, ovulation problems, reproductive conditions, or lifestyle factors. Early evaluation can help identify the cause and improve the chances of pregnancy.

Common Symptoms

  • Irregular or absent menstrual cycles
  • Painful or very heavy periods
  • Hormonal symptoms such as acne or excessive hair growth

  • Periods are irregular or absent
  • You have known reproductive conditions
  • You have had pelvic surgery or infections
