Fertility, Sub-fertility & Infertility: Why am I having trouble conceiving?
1 in 6 worldwide experience infertility.
Infertility or subfertility is defined as the inability to conceive or carry a baby to term after one year of regular intercourse without birth control.
Frustrated couples unable to conceive often consider assisted reproductive technologies, but these can bring a whole new set of frustrations. Intra-Uterine Insemination (IUI) is expensive and time-consuming, while IVF (in-vitro fertilisation) is particularly gruelling and involves harsh medication as well as putting immense emotional strain on the couple.
There are many other factors to consider when trying to start a family: pollution, nutritional deficiencies, body weight, processed food consumption, stress, smoking and alcohol consumption – all of which have significant impact on fertility.
