Common Causes of Infertility

What are the common causes of infertility in couples? Dr. Harshita S, Fertility Specialist at Cloudnine Hospital, Bellandur and Sarjapur Road, Bengaluru, explains the different factors that can affect conception in both women and men. From blocked fallopian tubes, PCOS and low ovarian reserve to sperm count, motility and hormonal issues, infertility can have several possible causes. Sometimes both partners may have contributing factors, while in other cases the cause remains unexplained despite normal fertility tests. Understanding the underlying cause is an important step towards choosing the right fertility treatment.
