There are many women who have trouble getting pregnant. The cause behind infertility can be different in each of them. Some causes of infertility in women are:
1. Ovulation Problems
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can be a cause behind problems in ovulation. There can be interference in normal ovulation because of this, which is a hormonal imbalance. POI (primary ovarian insufficiency or premature ovarian failure) can also be a cause behind ovulation problems. When your ovaries stop working properly before you reach the age of 40 years, the reason behind it may be POI. There may also be problems in ovulation if there is hyperprolactinemia, a condition in which there is too much prolactin, the hormone that stimulates breast milk. Your menstrual cycle can also be affected by thyroid issues like too little thyroid hormone (hypothyroidism) or too much thyroid hormone (hyperthyroidism). You should consult the top infertility doctor in Kolkata for proper diagnosis and treatment.
2. Endometriosis
There is the growth of the tissue that lines the uterus in other places like behind the uterus, in the fallopian tubes, in the abdomen, in the pelvis or the ovaries. This leads to irritation and the development of scar tissues. Some of the symptoms include painful intercourse or periods, heavy bleeding or unusual spotting and general pelvic pain. There can be difficulty in pregnancy due to endometriosis as this condition can cause blocked fallopian tubes, disrupt implantation, cause inflammation in the pelvis and impact egg quality. There are different treatment options for endometriosis. You can have better chances of getting pregnant if the best infertility doctor in Kolkata surgically removes the scar tissue or opens the blocked fallopian tube.
3. Abnormal cervical mucus
When estrogen stimulates production, cervical mucus, a fluid secreted by the cervix, helps the sperm to survive in the hostile, acidic environment of the vagina. The sperm cannot reach the egg because of abnormal cervical mucus. If there is intra-uterine submission to bypass the mucus, it may prove effective in treating this problem.
4. Tubal issues
Sperm cannot reach your eggs if your fallopian tubes are damaged or blocked. Sexually transmitted infections like Chlamydia and gonorrhoea can lead to pelvic inflammatory disease or PID. It is a generalized infection of the pelvis that can cause scarring and blockage of the fallopian tubes. There are also other causes of tubal problems. You should consult a specialist at an infertility clinic in Kolkata.
