Infertility is a major issue that we are seeing in today’s world. So if you have been having unprotected intercourse for a period of more than 1 year and still not pregnant or in an elderly or a high risk couple, for more than 6 months and there is no pregnancy, then you probably may be suffering from infertility. Infertility may be either a male infertility or a female infertility. So we get routine investigations done as a semen analysis in male, we find out if he is suffering from male infertility but in female infertility we see today is polycystic ovarian syndrome or PCOS. Other than that the other problems are the elderly or having thyroid problems, excessive weight gain, diabetes, high blood pressure to begin with. All these are common causes of infertility we see in today’s world. PCOS is one of the, major causes for infertility today. Signs and symptoms of PCOS we see are excessive weight gain, lot of acne on the face, hirsutism in the beard or in the midline in the body and very irregular cycle. They may be getting their cycles once in a month, also sometimes if not treated. So PCOD being one of the major causes needs to be treated and the treatment for infertility other than the routine medications and other things that we do is basically lifestyle changes that is maintaining a healthy body and a healthy mind, will lead us to less and less number of patients with PCOS and hence less number of infertile patients.
