Female Infertility Treatment
Infertility is referred to as the inability to achieve conception after trying to conceive for one year or longer with unprotected intercourse. If pregnancy does not occur during this period, the man or woman is diagnosed as having an infertility problem. If a woman keeps having miscarriages, it is also considered as infertility.
In women, several factor can hinder the process of pregnancy. This includes irregular menstrual cycle, PCOS, history of pelvic infection or STDs, thyroid disorder, blocked fallopian tube or uterine abnormalities such as fibroids. Factors such as age of 35 or older in women, smoking, obesity, diabetes, stress or certain medication can also increase the risk of infertility in women.
If you are unable to conceive 12 months of trying, seeking medical advice is recommended. Commonly used infertility treatment for women involves fertility and hormonal medications, assisted reproductive technology (such as IVF) or surgeries. Many of the conventional treatments may cause side-effects. The most common side-effects are mood changes, nausea, vomiting, painful swelling in the ovaries or increased risk of premature twins.
Homeopathy, on the other hand, offers a safe, effective and side-effect free solution for infertility treatment. Homeopathy has proven its efficacy in infertility treatment. It was demonstrated in a clinical study published in the ClinMed International Library. The study revealed the effectiveness of homeopathic treatment in the management of infertility in women by a significant positive outcome. Out of 40 cases of female infertility, 27 patients (67.5%) conceived after individualized homeopathy treatment.

FAQs
What can cause infertility in a woman?
- Irregular menstrual cycle - If a woman has periods at intervals of greater than 35 days, it may indicate that she is not ovulating an egg predictably, or even at all. This could be a result of a hormonal imbalance.
- Pelvic or sexually transmitted infection - Infections can cause inflammation and risk permanent scarring or blocking of the fallopian tubes. These fallopian tubes are important for natural conception. To determine if the fallopian tubes are open, HSG test may be suggested.
- Uterine fibroids - Fibroids can impair the lining of the uterus and where the fertilized egg grows and develops into a baby. These abnormalities can cause irregular bleeding and affect the chances of pregnancy.
- Age - As women age, the quality and quantity of eggs decrease. Aging changes the likelihood of an egg being genetically normal. Hence, the ability to conceive a normal pregnancy in reduced once a woman is in her 40s.
What are the signs of infertility in women?
- Pain during sex - Pain during sex can be a sign of an underlying health problem such as infections, endometriosis or fibroids. This can influence a woman’s fertility.
- Light, heavy or painful bleeding - Anywhere between three to seven days is considered a normal menses period. However, if the bleeding is pale, extremely heavy, or if you suffer from severe cramps, it can be a symptom of endometriosis or pelvic inflammatory disease.
Hormone changes, obesity or medical conditions such as thyroid can also cause infertility problems in women. While there are a variety of drugs and treatment options available, homeopathic infertility treatment helps to address the root cause in a safe way without any side-effects.

Myths and Facts
Know more- Age does not affect male fertility.
According to a recent study, paternal fertility decreases with age. If you are older and looking to conceive, a semen analysis evaluating shape and motility will provide a valuable guide to fertility potential. - Only women need to take supplements to improve fertility.
It has long been known that women should take folic acid while trying to conceive, as well as during pregnancy, to prevent certain birth defects, but folic acid is now known to be an important supplement in male fertility as well. - Smoking does not affect male fertility.
Smoking increases the chances of male infertility by 30%. Cutting out cigarettes is an obvious health advantage, and cigarettes can be especially harmful to fertility. Smoking as few as five cigarettes per day has been associated with lower fertility rates in men as well as women. - Cell phones, laptops, hot tubs and bicycles do not have an effect on semen quality.
Heat in extreme amounts can damage the testes and decline semen quality. A recent study by Fertility and Sterility found that the heat created from laptops can affect sperm motility and cause DNA damage. Cell phone emissions can also cause sperm damage; keep your phone in your back pocket and put a fan under your laptop. Men should be careful of spending too much time on a bike or lounging for too long in a hot tub. - Only hard drugs can affect male fertility.
Hard drugs affect fertility and, more importantly, pose a threat to your life. However, it is not just hard drugs that can affect fertility. Prescription drugs, antibiotics, blood pressure medication, and even exposure to lead and mercury can affect the quality and quantity of sperm. Frequent marijuana use has also been known to cause similar problems. - In a healthy male, all sperms are healthy.
In an average male, only 14% sperms have a normal shape, size and the ability to move properly. The count may look low, but the fact is that you only need one sperm to fertilise an egg and get pregnant. - Male infertility is genetic.
While male infertility can be genetically passed down, there are several additional factors that contribute to it. - There is no common diagnosis with male infertility.
While the specific cause of male infertility can vary greatly, the most common diagnosis associated with male infertility is low sperm count. - Separate health problems do not affect male fertility.
Chronic conditions such as diabetes and liver cirrhosis can cause abnormal male ejaculation due to nerve damage and retrograde ejaculation. - Weight does not affect fertility.
Extra weight presents a multitude of health issues including male infertility. Obesity causes elevated oestrogen and low testosterone levels, which can cause the sperm count to decrease. Overweight males also experience a decreased libido. - Diet does not affect male fertility.
Men with a high-fat diet have been found to have a decreased sperm count. Conversely, a mostly plant-based diet has been found to improve fertility and overall health.
