Female infertility is a complex medical condition that affects many women of reproductive age. Today, effective diagnostic and treatment methods are available, helping women struggling with infertility achieve the joy of motherhood.
Infertility in women can be caused by a variety of factors categorized as physiological, genetic, and external. One of the most common causes is ovulation disorders, where the egg either does not mature or fails to leave the ovary. This may result from hormonal imbalances or conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
Another common cause is fallopian tube obstruction. This can be due to inflammatory processes, past infections, or adhesions following surgery. The condition of the endometrium—the inner lining of the uterus—also plays a role in fertility. If the endometrium is too thin or damaged, a fertilized egg cannot implant successfully.
The age factor should not be overlooked. After the age of 35, the chances of natural conception decrease significantly due to the declining quality of eggs. Additionally, female infertility can be linked to endocrine disorders, genetic anomalies, or autoimmune processes.
