🌸 Prevention of Infertility: Protecting Fertility Through Healthy Choices

 

🧬 Understanding Infertility

Infertility is defined as the inability to conceive after 12 months of regular, unprotected sexual intercourse. It affects 1 in every 6 couples, and both men and women can be equally responsible.

While some causes are medical or genetic, many cases of infertility are preventable through lifestyle changes, timely health checks, and early intervention.

At Harsh Hospital, Himatnagar, our goal is to help couples protect their fertility and plan for a healthy future.
