neplodnosti

Neplodnost, also known as infertility, is a condition characterized by the inability to conceive a child after one year of regular, unprotected sexual intercourse for a woman under the age of 45, or after six months for a man. It affects approximately 10-15% of couples worldwide. The causes of infertility can be complex and vary widely, including both male and female factors. Common female factors include ovulation disorders, uterine abnormalities, and endometriosis. Male factors can include low sperm count, motility issues, or abnormalities in sperm morphology. Other causes may be related to the couple, such as unexplained infertility, or to the partner, such as male factor infertility or female factor infertility.

Diagnosis of infertility typically involves a detailed medical history, physical examinations, and various tests. These may include blood tests, ultrasound scans, and hormonal assessments. In some cases, genetic testing or intrauterine insemination (IUI) may be recommended. Treatment options depend on the underlying cause and may include medications, surgical procedures, or assisted reproductive technologies such as in vitro fertilization (IVF). It is important for individuals and couples experiencing infertility to seek medical advice and support, as it can be a challenging and emotionally taxing process.
