Infertility no more a problem

​Vijayawada: “Infertility is no more a matter of concern for the couple who do not have children. Various new advanced procedures are available in the field of medicine for couple to have children,” said Dr Swapna, fertility consultant, Nova IVI Fertility here.

Addressing the media here on Thursday, she said that awareness should be created among couples without children that infertility was curable, and couple could enjoy parenthood. One of the most common reasons for infertility in men was due to the concentration and motility of sperm. The most common cause in females was non-release of egg every month.

She said that root causes behind infertility are lifestyle choices. Heavy alcohol use, smoking, drugs, and the usage of anabolic steroids are all among the chief reasons why a man’s sperm might not be performing at the top of their peak potential.
