Male Infertility Causes and Treatments

When male infertility occurs, it can be a stressful situation for the man as well as the couple. As many as 15% of all couples are unable to conceive a child. The typical definition of infertility in a couple is not achieving pregnancy after six months to a year of trying. Some of the reasons that a man may be unable to procreate include sperm quality or quantities, health problems, diseases, injuries or even lifestyle habits. In a female, there are an array of issues that could be present including her age, lifestyle habits, lack of ovulation and diseases. Sometimes it’s the combination of the man and woman that is a problem as their bodies aren’t compatible for procreation due to allergies or something else.
