Infertility is defined as the inability to conceive a pregnancy after 12 months of unprotected sexual intercourse. It could be argued that the inability to successfully carry a pregnancy should be included in the definition, and we have a leaflet on miscarriage (click here to download). Infertility is a common problem affecting some 15% of the community.
To achieve a successful pregnancy several prerequisites are required: good quality eggs and sperm, an open fallopian tube and a receptive lining of the womb. A problem with any of these factors will reduce fertility and may cause infertility.
The normal monthly success rate (25% at age 25) decreases with increasing female age, particularly after 35 years of age.
