Qué causa la infertilidad femenina

Female infertility is understood as trying to get pregnant and not being successful. This is a problem that affects millions of couples around the world. It is estimated that between 10 and 18% of women have problems getting pregnant.

 What are the causes of female infertility?

The causes of female infertility are difficult to diagnose but most are due to ovulation. When problems with ovulation occur, they are known as ovulation disorders.  This means that the woman ovulates very infrequently. These ovulation disorders can be caused by problems with the regulation of reproductive hormones or by problems with the ovary.

Read our entry: Why IVF is convenient for you.

The most common conditions related to ovulation disorders are the following:

Premature ovarian failure.

Caused by premature loss of eggs in the ovary or an immune response causing the ovary to no longer produce eggs and estrogen production to decrease

Polycystic ovary syndrome.

 It is the cause of a hormonal imbalance that affects ovulation, being the most common cause of female infertility

 Too much prolactin.

 Excess prolactin production reduces estrogen production and causes infertility

Another cause of infertility is some damage that is seen in the fallopian tubes.  When the fallopian tubes are blocked or damaged, sperm cannot reach the egg. The same damage to these can also block the passage of the fertilized egg to the uterus.

Endometriosis is also one of the causes of female infertility.

It occurs when the tissue that grows in the uterus manages to implant and grow in other places causing scars to form that block the fallopian tubes and prevent the sperm from joining with the egg. Endometriosis can also affect the lining of the uterus and cause implantation of the fertilized egg to stop.

The cervix can also be affected and be a cause of female infertility since it can affect fertilization at the time of interfering with implantation or, also, it can increase the chances of having an abortion.

 What factors can lead to a higher risk of infertility?

  • Weight: Being underweight can affect a woman’s normal ovulation.
  • Age: A woman begins to decrease the quantity and quality of eggs over the years as the rate of loss of follicles accelerates
  • Sexual history: Having sexually transmitted infections damages the fallopian tubes
  • Alcohol and smoking: They damage both the fallopian tubes and the cervix, as well as increasing the risk of having miscarriages or ectopic pregnancies.  Also their consumption causes the ovaries to age and the eggs to be depleted early

 Now that we have talked a bit about female infertility. What other topic would you like us to talk about on our blog?
