ABCs of Infertility

Journal Title: Journal of the Indian Medical Association - Year 2018, Vol 116, Issue 12

Abstract

One in six couples have an unwanted delay in conception. Roughly half of these couples will conceive either spontaneously or with relatively simple advice or treatment. Most couples presenting with a fertility problem do not have absolute infertility (that is, no chance of conception), but rather relative subfertility with a reduced chance of conception because of one or more factors in either or both partners.
