Do I Need Help?
It is estimated that about 10-20% of couples experience difficulty conceiving at some point. Infertility is defined as the inability to conceive after one year of unprotected, timed intercourse. If the woman is over 35, a 6-month guideline is applied, since the biological clock is moving more rapidly.
Approximately 40% of infertility issues can be attributed to the male, about 40% to the female, and the remaining 20% are a combination of both, or deemed "unexplained" infertility.
If you are having difficulty conceiving and aren't sure where to start, contact an SIRM center to set up a consultation with one of our doctors. They can help you get your bearings and develop a custom-tailored plan for diagnosis and treatment.
