Very often infertility in women is divided into two types: primary and secondary. And according to the manifestations, they are divided into acquired and congenital infertility, relying on the pathogenesis. Primary infertility occurs only in nulliparous women, and secondary in women who already had a fetus (regardless of whether the pregnancy ended with the birth of a child).
It happens that infertility is formed as a result of any irreversible processes: for example, the absence of ovaries or uterus, due to malformation or removal. In such cases, pregnancy is not possible. And all other causes of infertility are reversible and can be eliminated, even despite the pathology.
In rare cases, women have mixed infertility. This is when a combination of anatomical changes and complex endocrine disorders occurs.
Causes of infertility in women .
The most common cause of female infertility ovulation. This is when, due to incorrect functioning of the brain structures or ovaries, the egg is unable to fertilize.
Another cause of infertility is the immune response against the embryo or sperm.
Although the most common cause is tubal infertility, which is caused by the complete closure of the lumen in the fallopian tubes. Such a pathology prevents not only the merger, but sometimes the meeting of the female and male reproductive cells. Usually, this type of infertility is formed due to tuberculosis of the genitals or previous inflammatory processes.
Another risk factor for infertility in women is the mucous membrane of the cervix, namely endometriosis, that is, the appearance of growths that are not characteristic of the genital tract, and poor quality or a small amount of uterine mucus.
There is such a myth about the "empty" Turkish saddle of the brain, which can also cause infertility. But experts argue that this deviation affects only the hormonal background, and if it is correctly adjusted, there will be no risk for pregnancy.
Symptoms of infertility in women - This is, above all, the inability for a long time to reproduce offspring. But such a diagnosis is made either in irreversible situations, or if a woman does not become pregnant within a few years. Again, it is worth considering the regularity of sexual activity without contraceptives.
It should also be borne in mind that for young girls (or women already) who are less than 20 years old, these few years can be a long term. But for mature women who have crossed the line in 30 years, the terms are reduced to one year.
Signs of infertility in women look on your face if abortion has occurred. In this case, this may be a clear sign of secondary infertility.
For marriage, infertility disease is a difficult test, with both partners suffering. After all, it is known that for a man, heirs are very important. And no matter who he is by nationality, procreation is a matter of principle. But because of illiteracy, many are accustomed to consider only a woman guilty of this problem. And when a wife tells her husband about a joint checkup, this often sounds insulting to him, despite the fact that male infertility is very common in medical practice.
And how do you think a woman is behaving, accused of the fact that the causes of infertility come from her? She falls into prolonged depression and, as a result, various diseases. But what if the causes of infertility lie not in her, but in the man? And he lives for himself, calmly throwing the burden of his worries to a helpless woman.
Therefore, I urge all men to become more educated, although in our age of the Internet, to be not so would be very embarrassing. And if you and your beloved woman (wife) cannot conceive, look at the information that both partners can be the reason for this.
