The simple answer for the question “how to get pregnant?” is as simple as the questions itself “have sex.” If you are not getting pregnant after having unprotected sex for over a year, then you may have one of more of the problems which we are going to describe below. Getting solutions medically for your infertility problems is recommended throughout this blog, but medicine treats your problem, it is the nature which heals. We are going to put in as many posts as possible in this website describing alternative treatments for infertility to get pregnant.
Before choosing something like so called “Chinese methods” you need to know the causes of infertility and consult the Fertility Clinic in your locality. There are many causes for female infertility both structural and hormonal. We are explaining each cause and their possible solutions below, go through them one by one.
Knowing these reasons may not help you in getting pregnant or you many understand clearly your problem of infertility when ob/gyn physician explain it to you. In addition, if you are someone like us who believe that the process of pregnancy is more mental and spiritual than just medical, you may benefit from other posts in this website.
Ovulation Problems:
Problems in releasing of eggs from ovary results in infertility are listed in this cause. Most of the reasons are hormonal. Many glands take part in helping the ovaries to release eggs; malfunction in any of these glands can result in infertility. These glands include pituitary gland, adrenal glands, thyroid gland, hypothalamus, and female genital organs. If hypothalamus malfunctions and fail to release gonadotropin releasing hormone which stimulates pituitary gland to produce hormones which trigger releasing of eggs, you will not get pregnant.
Apart from hormonal other reasons for ovulation problems are weight loss, overweight or obesity, excessive stress etc. The symptoms of ovulation problems are absence of periods, infrequent and irregular periods, excessive bleeding or scanty bleeding. Possible treatments for this cause of infertility are drugs like Clomid (Clomiphene) which stimulate ovulation, HCG human chorionic gonadotropin, and in-vitro fertilization. Success rate is around 20 to 70 percent with these treatments but not 100% which is the reason we have started this website.
Female Tubes (Fallopian Tubes) Blockage:
This condition prevents eggs from reaching the uterus and blocks sperms in getting to the egg. There are many causes for fallopian tube blockage including pelvic inflammatory disease, endometrosis, sexually transmitted infections, abnormal structure of fallopian tubes, ectopic pregnancy, surgery to the pelvis which results in adhesions (scar tissue). The possible treatment is through surgery (laparoscopic) if the area of blockage is small and IVF. Success rate depends on the extent of blockage and varies from 20% to 70%.
Endometriosis:
This is the major cause for infertility in woman and is caused when the endometrium grows outside the uterus. There are many symptoms of this condition like heavy bleeding, miscarriages, painful periods etc. The possible treatments for this condition of infertility includes surgery (laparoscopic) to remove the abnormal endometrial tissue, and also IVF. The success rate is reported as 40% to 60%.
Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome:
In this condition, ovaries develop many cysts and as a result do not ovulate due to hormonal imbalances. The treatment for this condition of infertility includes ovulation stimulating drugs like Clomid (Clomifene), follicle-stimulating hormone, and IVF. The success rates of treatment are reported as 70%.
Other than these major causes age of the woman plays an important role in infertility. The quality of eggs become poor as the woman grows older leading to infertility. In addition, the woman may also suffer from one of the infertility conditions described above.
