What is female infertility?

Female infertility is the inability to conceive after trying for a year or more.

Female infertility can result from various factors, including ovulation disorders, blocked fallopian tubes, or issues with the uterus. Hormonal imbalances, age, lifestyle factors, and conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) or endometriosis are common contributors. A fertility evaluation usually involves hormone testing, ultrasounds, and other diagnostic procedures to determine the cause and guide treatment options.
