A Brief Glance Into Your Fertility Treatment Options

One in every eight couples has trouble getting pregnant, or carrying a child to birth. A couple between the ages of 29 and 33 only have a 20-25% chance of conceiving in any given month, even with normally functioning reproductive systems. Luckily, modern medicine has a variety of different infertility procedures that have helped thousands of couples achieve their dream of having a family. Today, approximately 85-90% of infertility cases are treated with drug therapy or surgical procedures administrated to them by fertility experts. Here is a look into four common infertility procedures that may be able to help you and your significant other get pregnant.

Fertility Drugs
A doctor may prescribe you or your partner with drugs that are meant to help aid the process of fertilization by balancing hormone levels. This is typically the first thing a doctor will suggest, as it is the least invasive procedure. However, lack of hormones is not always the cause of infertility, so there is no guarantee that the drugs will be able to increase your chances of having a child.

Artificial Insemination
This is a process that aids the transportation of the sperm to the woman’s uterus. During the artificial insemination process, doctors ask the male to provide a sperm sample, which is then manually inserted into the uterus. This helps for couples that have issues getting the sperm to travel to the uterus, such as damaged fallopian tubes or low sperm count.

In Vitro Fertilization
In Vitro Fertilization, or IVF, is a process where an egg is fertilized outside of the womb, and then placed back into the uterus. This helps for couples who have issues with the actual fertilization process, or whose infertility case is undiagnosed. However, there is no guarantee that the egg will make it to term, and it can be a costly procedure.

Surgery
In some cases, minor surgery can be performed to increase a couple’s chances of conceiving a child. Surgeries are used to fix genetic affects, remove blockage from fallopian tubes, remove endometriosis tissue, and more. To perform the surgery, a small incision is made in the abdomen in order to reach the affected area.
