Infertility & ovulation?


Infertility & ovulation?
Some one just told me that if a person is having a problem with infertility she will not ovulate, is this true?

Infertility is much more than a woman not ovulating. If a woman does not ovulate then she is infertile (unable to conceive). However, many women that are dealing with infertility do ovulate, but have other problems and are unable to conceive.

Infertility is described as the inability to conceive (get pregnant) after one year of having well timed, unprotected intercourse. To say it another way, if a couple is not using any form of birth control at all, always has intercourse at least every three days, and does this for one year and pregnancy does not happen, then either the male, female or both have a fertility problem. In about 30% to 40% of cases it is male factor infertility, in another 30% to 40% of cases it is female factor infertility, and in 20% to 30% of cases it is both partners that are infertile. In about 10% of cases there is no known medical reason for the couple's inability to conceive (unexplained infertility).

I hope that this helps to answer your question.

Not necessarily. A fertility problem between a couple can be 40% her problem, 40% of the time it's his problem, and 20% it's both or unknown. If a woman has infertility problems, it might be that her tubes are the problem, that she's ovulating but the tubes prevent sperm from reaching the egg or that the egg doesn't reach the uterus, just as an example. There are a lot of other problems, too, that might come up, so it's not just ovulation.
