What is Infertility?
Infertility is a condition where a person is unable to conceive even after one year of regular, unprotected intercourse. It may affect people of any gender and can result from several causes—hormonal imbalances, structural abnormalities, or lifestyle factors.
At God’s Grace IVF Center, Dr. Roshi Satija specializes in providing personalized fertility care, helping individuals and couples build the families they dream of.
Types of Infertility
Infertility is typically classified into two categories:
Primary Infertility
Occurs when someone has never achieved pregnancy despite consistent attempts to conceive. Causes can include ovulation problems, hormonal issues, or unexplained fertility barriers.
Secondary infertility
In contrast, secondary infertility refers to the inability to become pregnant again after a previous successful conception. This could happen due to factors such as scarring from past pregnancies, aging, or changes in reproductive health.
In both cases, a thorough diagnosis is crucial, and the right treatment can make a significant difference.
How Common is Infertility?
Infertility affects around 10–15% of couples globally, and several contributing factors have been identified. For example, female fertility generally declines with age, particularly after 35. In addition, unhealthy habits such as smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, poor nutrition, and obesity can negatively impact reproductive health.
Fortunately, early intervention and lifestyle adjustments can improve your chances of conceiving.
What Causes Infertility?
Infertility can stem from various physical, hormonal, or lifestyle-related causes. Let’s look at common causes in individuals with ovaries and individuals with testes:
Causes in Individuals with Ovaries:
- Ovulation Disorders: Conditions like PCOS, thyroid issues, or pituitary gland dysfunction can prevent the release of eggs.
- Blocked Fallopian Tubes: Often due to infections, endometriosis, or pelvic inflammatory disease.
- Endometriosis: A condition where uterine-like tissue grows outside the uterus, disrupting normal reproductive function.
Causes in Individuals with Testes:
- Low Sperm Count: Insufficient sperm production may lead to reduced fertility.
- Poor Sperm Motility: Even with a healthy count, sperm must be mobile to reach the egg.
- Varicocele or Blockages: Swollen veins or obstructions can impair sperm transport and quality.
Therefore, identifying the root cause is key to choosing the most effective treatment path.
Fertility Treatment Options at God’s Grace IVF Center
1. Lifestyle Changes
Initial treatments often focus on improving health habits. These include maintaining a healthy weight, quitting smoking, limiting alcohol, and reducing stress.
2. Fertility Medications
- Clomiphene Citrate (Clomid): Induces ovulation in individuals with irregular cycles.
- Letrozole: Another ovulation-stimulating drug, often prescribed for people with PCOS.
- Gonadotropins: Hormones that help produce multiple eggs during a cycle.
- Metformin: Helps regulate insulin and improves ovulation in PCOS patients.
- Hormonal Therapy for Sperm Count: For individuals with low testosterone or other hormonal imbalances.
3. Surgical Procedures
In some cases, surgery may be needed to treat conditions like blocked fallopian tubes, endometriosis, or varicocele.
4. Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART)
When simpler treatments are not effective, ART procedures are often recommended. These include:

Each method is selected based on your specific diagnosis and response to prior treatment, ensuring optimal results.
