Signs Of Female Infertility
It is recommended that most couples try for at least a year to conceive before they seek medical intervention. Conception can take time, and many couples are surprised by the suggestion that they wait a year before seeking medical help, but conception can take months to occur.
Something that may help meanwhile is conception kits. They help to determine when ovulation is occuring. They are made to detect a hormone called LH that indicates that ovulation will happen in about 24 to 48 hours.
A basal thermometer is also a great help. This special thermometer is designed to show very small shanges in temperature. In a woman cycle, you normally can see small variations when ovulation is going to happen. When it occurs, a rise will be appreciable. One recomendation is to start to plot the temperature day by day during one or more cycle and detect a pattern on when ovulation happens.
At the end of the day, any of the two methods described can help determine that there is a problem. If, for example, you find no change, then, this may indicate that there is no ovulation. Now, before going to drastic conclusions, you must also be aware that women may not ovulate every month. This is not necessarily the sign of female infertility.
There are other possible signs of female infertility, and couples should be aware of what these are.
As stated before, women may not ovulate every month. However, various month without any sign of ovulation can be an important sign of female infertility. Now, there are several reasons on why this occurs and that can help your determine if it’s your case. Sudden weight loss, exercising too much can be possible causes.
Both of these conditions can cause a woman to stop ovulating and then her period would also cease. Some women have irregular periods and these can also indicate problems with fertility. A condition called PCO, Poly Cystic Ovarian Disease is often found to be the issue for women with irregular periods. With this condition, a woman has a hormone imbalance that impedes the process of ovulation.
Another cause can be Endometriosis. It refers to women who have extremely painful periods. This disease corresponds to the case when a woman has developed tissue from her uterus on the outside of the uterus. This endometrial lining can cause excessive damage to organs and the fallopian tubes preventing conception from occurring.
For couples that are trying to find a fertility cure, it is important to be aware of the possible signs of female infertility. These signs can help a physician focus on a particular area that could be the problem in the couple’s infertility. By being aware of these conditions, a couple can help their physician find treatments for their infertility.
