Female Infertility
Infertility and reproductive challenges are often treatable. Many people are unaware that male infertility is just as common as female infertility. Causes may include certain medical conditions, lifestyle factors, or aging. Fortunately, advances in fertility treatment—including medication and assisted reproductive technologies—have made it possible for many couples to conceive.
In the United States, about 10% of couples experience infertility. According to the American Society for Reproductive Medicine,
-
About one-third of cases are related to female infertility,
-
Another one-third to male infertility,
-
And the remaining one-third involve both partners.
For approximately 20% of couples, the exact cause remains unknown.
