Changing lifestyles, delayed marriages, stress, obesity, and environmental factors are contributing to a growing number of infertility cases among couples. Conditions such as PCOS, endometriosis, fibroids, poor sperm quality, and lifestyle habits like smoking and alcohol consumption can further affect fertility.

According to Dr. K. Shilpi Reddy, couples below the age of 30 who are unable to conceive after one year of regular unprotected intercourse should consult a fertility specialist for evaluation.

Advances in reproductive medicine, including IUI and IVF, along with technologies such as embryo freezing and genetic testing, have significantly improved the chances of successful pregnancy.

Early diagnosis and timely treatment can make a meaningful difference in the journey to parenthood.
