Secondary Infertility Explained
Secondary infertility is the inability to conceive or carry a pregnancy to term after previously having a successful pregnancy. Here are some factors that may contribute to secondary infertility:
Age
Advanced maternal age can impact fertility and increase the risk of pregnancy complications.
Medical conditions
Conditions such as endometriosis, PCOS, and thyroid disorders can impact fertility.
Male factor infertility
Male factor infertility, such as low sperm count or poor sperm motility, can contribute to secondary infertility.
Stress and lifestyle factors
Stress, poor diet, and excessive alcohol or drug use can impact fertility.
If you are experiencing secondary infertility, it is important to work with a healthcare provider to identify any underlying causes and explore treatment options.
