What Is Infertility?
Infertility is typically defined as the inability to conceive after a year of regular, unprotected intercourse (or six months for those over 35). While it can be caused by a variety of factors, both male and female partners may contribute to the challenges, making a comprehensive approach to diagnosis and support essential.
Exploring Ovulation Issues
One of the most common causes of infertility in women is ovulation problems, such as insufficient, irregular, or absent ovulation (anovulation). Understanding the underlying causes—whether hormonal imbalances, stress, or medical conditions like PCOS—can pave the way for targeted solutions. Tracking your cycle through tools like basal body temperature (BBT) charting can also shed light on your ovulatory patterns.
Support for Men in the Infertility Journey
Infertility is often seen as a women’s issue, but male factor infertility accounts for up to 50% of cases. For men, finding emotional support and understanding their role in the journey is crucial. Whether it’s learning how to advocate for testing or simply finding someone to talk to, men deserve space to process and heal too.
