The most complicated part of women’s bodies is the reproductive system. There are several organs that are very delicate and can have several problems. There are several factors that affect a moman’s ability to ovulate, get pregnant, and go full term. More often than any there is more than one contributing factor in infertility. Sometimes a doctor will group these reasons by structural, hormonal, or disorders depending on the location of the problem.

Cervical Tubal Ovarian Uterine

Unfortunately, sometimes more than one category is involved. Just because a problem in one of these categories is identified, it doesn’t mean you should stop looking for others. Be sure your doctor rules out other likely causes, including male factor infertility.

Cervical Problems

The cervix is a vital component in the female reproductive system. It is the conduit through which sperm must first pass from the vagina into the uterus, up the Fallopian tube, and, it is hoped, to an awaiting egg. Here are some cervical abnormalities that can impair conception or lead to miscarriage:

Malformations of the cervical canal, such as those seen in DES daughters.

A rare occurance of the cervix not be in the right place

Infections that keep sperm from being able to pass due to the thick cervical mucus. This happens when injuries from procedures are often performed.

Tubal factors

Damaged or malfunctioning Fallopian tubes account for 20 to 35 percent of the infertility cases treated. These abnormalities will prevent eggs from ever reaching the approaching sperm. The tubes may be blocked or immobilized by scar tissue, which makes it impossible for them to move and to pick up eggs.

Here are some possible causes of tubal disease:

Apparent or inapparent infections Endometriosis Sterilization Miscarriages

Overian Problems

The development of the viable ova is hindered with Ovarian problems. Twenty five percent of female infertility is due to the irregularity and abnormal ovulation periods. You should make sure to tell your doctor if your menstural cycles are not regular. This includes how heavy it is and how severe the cramps are. This could be signs of having ovarian problems.
