Fertility Glenmarie
One of the common issue in gynaecology is fertility issue in women. The following is the common causes of fertility problems in women:
- Ovulation problems
- Endometriosis
- Poor egg quality
- Polycystic ovarian syndrome
An ovulation problem occurs when eggs don’t mature in the ovaries or when the ovaries fail to release a mature egg. This is sometimes known as premature ovarian failure. Ovulation problems are common in women with infertility.
Possible symptoms: Absent or infrequent periods, unusually light or heavy menstrual bleeding, or lack of such premenstrual symptoms as bloating or breast tenderness.
Endometriosis is a condition that occurs when tissue normally found in the lining of the uterus (endometrial tissue) grows outside the uterus, usually in the abdomen or pelvis.
Possible symptoms: Some women have no symptoms, while others have painful periods or intercourse, heavy bleeding or unusual spotting, and general pelvic pain.
The quality and number of eggs the ovaries produce – naturally or with fertility treatment – declines significantly after age 35.
Possible symptoms: None
Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a condition in which small follicles in the ovaries don’t develop into the larger, mature follicles that release eggs. It’s also characterized by hormone imbalances and unpredictable ovulation patterns.
Possible symptoms: irregular periods, excessive hair growth, acne, and obesity.
