Every month that passes without a positive pregnancy test result can be highly disappointing for couples waiting to fulfill their dreams of parenthood. The last decade has seen an increase in the instances of infertility cases reported worldwide. However, with proper fertility treatments, most cases of infertility can be overcome.
The advancement in medicine and treatment techniques have brought about an improvement in the diagnosis and treatment of infertility. The treatment adopted highly depends on various factors such as the cause of infertility, severity of the issue, age of the couple, their preference and so on.
Infertility can occur due to a number of abnormalities in either or both partners. From hormonal imbalances, ovulatory problems or reproductive organ abnormalities in women to azoospermia and other reproductive system disorders in men, causes of infertility can vary highly in intensity and nature.
When regular, unprotected intercourse of about 12 months fails to bring about a positive pregnancy result, it is advisable to consult a fertility specialist. Age plays an important role in infertility treatment as well.
Infertility Treatment Methods
Fertility treatments options have evolved over the years and have achieved greater success rate today. Some of the treatment methods include
Fertility drugs – Hormonal imbalances or infertility caused due to minor ovulation issues in women can be treated with the help of fertility drugs and hormonal therapy to some extent.
Surgery – surgical procedures are used when diagnosis tests reveal a reproductive system abnormality as the cause of infertility. This may range from fallopian tube blockage, ovarian cysts and fibroids to uterine disorders such as endometriosis. Surgery helps in correcting the irregularity to restore fertility.
Assisted Reproductive Techniques (ART) – ART techniques have evolved to be an effective treatment option to overcome a wide range of infertility issues. IVF has become one of the most popular assisted techniques, what with its growing success rates. Other ART techniques include IUI (Intrauterine Insemination), ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) and so on.
