What are the symptoms?

Symptoms of infertility are inability to conceive a child. Infertility can be classified in two categories: Primary Infertility and 2. Secondary Infertility.
Primary infertility is defined as the absence of a live birth for women who desire a child and have been in a healthy non consanguionous relationship for at least 12 months, during which they have not used any contraceptives. The World Health Organisation also adds that 'women whose pregnancy spontaneously miscarries, or whose pregnancy results in a still born child, without ever having had a live birth would present with primarily infertility'.
Secondary infertility is defined as the absence of a live birth for women who desire a child and have been in a union for at least 12 months since their last live birth, during which they did not use any contraceptives.

In Vitro Fertilization treatment(IVF):
Third party reproduction:
- Sperm donation – a process by which donated sperm is used for insemination in the uterus, or for fertilization of eggs in the IVF process
- Egg or ovum donation – a process by which an egg donor undergoes an IVF cycle in order to obtain her eggs which are then donated and fertilized. The resulting embryos are then transferred into the uterus of the future mother, known as the recipient. Usually no more than 1 – 2 embryos are transferred, and therefore additional embryos can be frozen, or cryopreserved, for future use.
- Embryo donation – a process where a fully developed embryo from another person in combination with donor sperms or eggs are donated to another woman.
- Surrogacy – a process where another woman will undergo an embryo transfer and carry the pregnancy for another person. Your fertility gynecologist will discuss these approaches to having a baby if appropriate to your particular case.
Infertility related Surgeries – After a thorough history, physical examination, and ultrasound are performed, your fertility gynecologist may recommend surgery to correct any abnormality. In reproductive medicine, the most common surgical procedures are laparoscopy and hysteroscopy.
