Factors that trigger Female Infertility

Infertility in the male is triggered by a few different factors. It is essential to have healthy sperm production for conception to happen. This sperm needs to be strong enough to reach the egg. It will need good motility. If the sperm count is below optimum or the sperms are of poor quality i.e. poor mobility or motility, this will greatly reduce the chances of conception. Another problem could also be that the sperm is not formed properly or they die prematurely before they can reach the egg.

These could happen due to a structural problem, like the testes are not producing enough hormones or a functional problem of testes like weak motility of sperm. The condition is called oligiospermia when there are very few sperm present in the semen. When the case is zero sperm production, it is called azoospermia. The problems with the form and structure of the sperm can also inhibit fertilization. Like Female infertility, Male infertility problems can also be due to birth defects or genetics that causes damage to the reproductive systems.
