Understanding Primary Infertility Causes: Insights from Dr. Hitesh Patel, Harsh Hospital, Himatnagar, Gujarat
What is Primary Infertility?
Primary infertility refers to the inability to conceive in couples who have never achieved a pregnancy. It can affect both men and women and may be caused by a variety of factors. Identifying these causes is the first step toward finding the right treatment.
Common Causes of Primary Infertility
1. Hormonal Imbalances
Disruptions in hormonal levels can affect ovulation and sperm production.
Conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) or thyroid disorders often play a role.
2. Ovulation Disorders
Irregular or absent ovulation can prevent conception.
This is often caused by stress, excessive exercise, or medical conditions like PCOS.
3. Blocked Fallopian Tubes
Fallopian tubes can become blocked due to infections, endometriosis, or pelvic inflammatory disease (PID).
This prevents the sperm from reaching the egg.
4. Endometriosis
This condition occurs when the tissue lining the uterus grows outside it, potentially causing infertility.
It can lead to scarring, inflammation, and blocked fallopian tubes.
5. Low Sperm Count or Quality
Male infertility contributes to about 30-40% of infertility cases.
Causes include hormonal issues, genetic factors, lifestyle habits, or medical conditions.
6. Lifestyle Factors
Smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, obesity, and stress can all negatively impact fertility.
Poor dietary habits and lack of physical activity also play a role.
7. Age
Female fertility declines significantly after the age of 35, while male fertility declines more gradually.
Diagnosis of Primary Infertility
At Harsh Hospital, Dr. Hitesh Patel employs advanced diagnostic tools to identify the root causes of infertility. These include:
Blood Tests: To assess hormone levels.
Ultrasound: To check for ovulation and reproductive organ health.
Hysterosalpingography (HSG): To examine fallopian tube health.
Semen Analysis: To evaluate sperm count and quality.
Treatment Options
Once the cause of infertility is identified, personalized treatment plans are developed. Common treatments include:
Lifestyle Modifications: Encouraging a healthy diet, regular exercise, and stress reduction.
Medications: Hormonal therapies to regulate ovulation or improve sperm quality.
