Secondary Infertility



What is secondary infertility?
 15 – 20 % of fertile women often experience difficulty in conceiving after a childbirth or an abortion. This condition is called secondary infertility and it affects a woman socially and emotionally. The causes of secondary infertility are also same as primary infertility but it confuses a woman who has already experienced a pregnancy.


How Changes in the lifestyle of partners affects fertility?
 Ovulatory disorders are primarily related to food and lifestyle. Eating polyunsaturated fats, less dietary fibers, carbohydrates with high glycemic index are key factors in causing diet related fertility disorders. These dietary factors often increase weight and subsequently leads alteration in hormone balance. With gain in weight the periods become irregular and the woman ends up with fertility problems. 



How male fertility profile can change with time?
Men continue to produce sperm throughout their lives, a man’s decrease in sperm characteristics occurs much later. Sperm quality deteriorates somewhat as men get older, but it generally does not become a problem before a man is in his 60s. there is no maximum age at which a man cannot father a child, as evidenced by men in their 60s and 70s conceiving with younger partners. However ageing men may develop medical illnesses that adversely affect their sexual and reproductive function. Alcohol, Obesity and diabetes can affect sperm quality which are acquired due to lifestyle changes over time.
