Who is Infertile ?
Statistics vary, but roughly one-third of the cases of infertility are female factor (ovulation disorders, tubal issues, etc.), one-third of the cases are male factor (poor sperm motility or mobility, lack of sperm, erectile dysfunction, etc.), and one-third are caused by a combination of male and female factors, or the cause is unknown. There is also a condition known as secondary infertility, where pregnancy has previously been achieved without difficulty and now pregnancy is not coming easily.
