General Info about Infertility

Infertility is a condition or a disease of the reproductive system often diagnosed after a couple fail to achieve pregnancy or if the woman has been unable to carry a pregnancy that results in a live birth.

The importance of examining the husband before subjecting the wife to operation will be appreciated when I state that he is, as a rule, at fault in at least one instance in every six.

-Samuel Weissell Gross, 1881


Primary Infertility is the term used to describe a couple that has never been able to conceive a pregnancy, after a minimum of one year of attempting to do so through unprotected intercourse.

Secondary Infertility is the term used to describe couples who have previously been pregnant at least once, but have not been able to achieve another pregnancy.

What a dilemma, misfortune for the people of Pakistan due to lack of modern technology in Pakistan. But whatever is the reason I suffered. And right from the roots of my sufferings there arises a thought for poor and deprived folks - to be able to build and establish an infertility modern centre with all latest technologies and modern techniques as far as the treatment of infertility is concerned..bcoz I am childless even after six years of marriage even after having treatment in Pakistan. Though I have consulted with the fertility centers of the first world and their response are quiet reassuring and hopeful but the question I ask myself is that why should not I be treated successfully in Pakistan. So I have decided to build an infertility center in Pakistan and I have few idea to face the problems in the accomplishment of this dream. Can u pls suggest me some ideas on how I can do this or what help can I seek from Medindia in this regard... Sheikh suleman javied, Sialkot,Pakistan.

My husband and i have been trying to get pregnant for 2 years. I have one child from a previous marriage and he has 2 from his former marriage. Will fibroids prevent me from getting pregnant?
