• There are some common causes of infertility in
  women that should be kept in mind are

Incapable of Ovulating
There are several reasons that can be the major
factor behind incapability to ovulate like
ageing, hormonal imbalance in the body, some
eating disorders, addiction or drug abuse,
concerns related to thyroid, pituitary tumours,
or stress. 40 per cent of women deal with this
problem.
5
Imbalance in the Menstrual Cycle
Having a regular menstrual cycle is very
important to get pregnant. If your menstrual
cycles are irregular then it can lead to
infertility as it is the process that prepares
the human body to conceive.

Problems Related to the Reproductive System
Presence of abnormal tissues in the uterus or
fallopian tube, blockage in fallopian tubes,
Problems such as endometriosis, growth of
fibroids around the walls of the uterus, growth
of polyps inside the surface of the uterus,
scarring due to infections, surgery or injury are
some of the issues that can cause infertility in
women and should be treated as soon as diagnosed.
7
Damage in Fallopian Tubes
The fallopian tube carries eggs from ovaries to
the uterus. If they get damaged due to scars,
endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease,
pelvic tuberculosis or injury during any surgery
can stop the egg to meet the sperm that forms the
embryo. Damage to the fallopian tube due to the
above-mentioned reasons can lead to infertility
in women.
8
Hormonal Issues
If your body is going through some hormonal
imbalance then that can cause infertility. Our
pituitary glands produce two main hormones namely
follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and
luteinizing hormone (LH). The production of these
hormones can get disturbed due to physical or
emotional stress, extremely low weight or obesity.
9
Endometriosis
Endometriosis is a condition in which the tissues
start growing in other parts of the body that
otherwise grow in the uterus. The scars caused
during the surgical process of removing it may
block fallopian tubes and sometimes also affect
the lining of the uterus that can damage the eggs
or sperms or disrupts the implantation of
fertilized eggs.
10
Problems Related to Ovaries
PCOS better known as polycystic ovary syndrome or
POI known as primary ovarian insufficiency are
some of the conditions that can interfere with
the pregnancy in women. While the former disrupts
the ovulation process and the production of high
levels of androgens hormone, the latter is a
condition where women ovaries stop producing eggs
or hormones.
11
Medication and Drugs
Chemotherapy or radiations, long term usage of
nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs,
antipsychotic medications, or taking of marijuana
and cocaine can cause infertility and thus one
should stay away from these as much as possible.
