Hi Nav, 
I hope you are doing well!

I would love to share my thoughts on this interesting topic.


To discover if you are infertile, your doctor will go over your health history, medicines, sexual history, and sex habits, like how often you have got sex.
Men will get an actual physical exam and often a sperm analysis, which tests the health of the sperm.

For a lady, testing starts with a medical history and actual physical exam, including a pelvic exam. The physician then makes sure that she ovulates repeatedly and that her ovaries are discharging the eggs. tests are taken to measure hormone levels. The ovaries and uterus might be examined by the sonographer, and a specific X-ray test can check the uterus and fallopian tubes.

In about 80% of couples, the reason for infertility is alternatively an ovulation problem, blockage of the vagina, or a sperms difficulty. In 5%-15% of couples, all tests are normal, and the cause is not known.

What Are the Treatments for Infertility?

In men, fertility is treated with:

Surgery, if the cause is a varicocele (widening of the veins in the scrotum) or a blockage in the vas deferens, tubes that carry sperm.
Antibiotics to treat infections in the reproductive organs.
Medications and counseling to treat problems with erections or ejaculation.
Hormone treatments if the problem is a low or high level of certain hormones.

In women, infertility is treated with:

Fertility drugs and hormones to help the woman ovulate or restore levels of hormones
Surgery to remove tissue that is blocking fertility (such as endometriosis) or to open blocked fallopian tubes.

Infertility in men and woman can also be treated with assisted reproductive technology or ART. There are several types of ART:

IUI (intrauterine insemination): Sperm is collected and placed directly inside the woman's uterus while she is ovulating.
IVF (in vitro fertilization): The sperm and egg are collected and brought together in a lab. The fertilized egg grows for 3 to 5 days days. Then the embryo is placed in the woman's uterus.
GIFT (gamete intrafallopian transfer) and ZIFT (zygote intrafallopian transfer): The sperm and egg are collected and quickly placed in a fallopian tube. With GIFT, both sperm and eggs are placed into the fallopian tube. With ZIFT, the sperm and eggs are brought together in a lab and then a fertilized egg is placed into the tube at 24 hours.

I hope this you will find helpful. here I am also going to share the good source of one..about Fertility Preservation Options in Females & Males .
