INFERTILITY
Infertility is the inability of a couple to become pregnant ( regardless of cause) after 1 year of unprotected sexual intercourse.
It is said to occur when :
- A woman under 35 has not conceived after 12 months of contraceptive free intercourse (CFI).
- A woman over 35 has not conceived after 6 months of CFI
Women who can get pregnant but are unable to stay pregnant may also be infertile.
** HOW IT OCCURS * *
- egg is released from a woman during ovulation
- Egg moves through the fallopian tube to the uterus
- Sperm deposited by man swims to meet the egg
- The fertilized egg attach to the endometrium of uterus
- Implantation occurs
However, disruption of any of these steps leads to Infertility issues.
Infertility is a common problem in both sexes.
CAUSES OF INFERTILITY IN MEN
- Infertility in men is often caused by a problem called Varicocele. This occurs when the vein on a male testicle is too large. This heat up the testicles and affects the number or shape of the sperm.
- Sexually transmissible infections
- Sometimes injury to the reproductive system block the sperm.
- Birth defects. This is problem associated during development of an embryo.

- Too much Alcohol
- Taking Drugs and Smoking cigarettes
- Toxins from environment e.g. pesticides, Lead
- Health challenges like Mumps, kidney disease or hormone imbalance
- Age
- Medicine
- Exposure to some radioactive materials.
