Causes of fertility problems in women

Let’s look at some common fertility problems in women.

1. Ovulation problems.

• Sometimes it may be complete absent of menstrual cycle.
• Other symptoms are related to breast becoming tender and experiencing bloating as well.

4. Damaged fallopian tube.

If your fallopian tube is not functioning well whereby if it is blocked or damaged may be a great cause of infertility in women, This problem prevents the sperm from swimming into your eggs hence no fertilization takes place at all in the uterus. Fallopian blocking is caused by inflammatory diseases, sexually transmitted infections as well.

5. Hormonal problems.

Another cause of fertility problems in women is whereby your hormones keep on changing hence resulting in releasing of ovule in the uterus. This in return causes the lining of the uterus to thicken hence preventing the sperm from entering the uterus. Therefore, no fertilization will take place.

6. Early menopause.

In other cases, it happens to women who are athletic and have had low weight throughout their lives hence is not able to produce enough eggs.

If your ovaries have been damaged, it may be difficult to conceive. This result to the failure of ovulation. Some of the causes of damage to ovaries include having multiple surgeries and repeated ovarian cysts which cause damaging the follicles hence they are unable to mature.

8. Congenital effects.

Although this type of problem is rare, it may occur to some women whereby they are born with irregularities in the uterine part hence making it impossible for fertilization to take place at all.

9. Environmental causes.

Several environmental factors that can lead to infertility. Some may be genetic such as damage to the DNA which makes it impossible to conceive. Other causes may be related to abuse of drugs that causes the body to become toxic.

10. Sexually transmitted diseases.

The sexually transmitted disease also affects the females’ reproductive system hence making them unable to reproduce. Some of the parts that are changed are the uterus which is unable to allow any fertilization to take place.

11. Menopause.
