Therefore, infertility is a diagnosis, which most often causes depression, despair and even discourages the desire to live.
It is believed that the alarm should be beat after two unsuccessful years in an attempt to acquire an heir. But, as in the case of any disease, the sooner the treatment begins, the faster and more efficient the result, so let's look at what female diseases lead to infertility.
Fashionable now the freedom of sexual relations with their characteristic consequences in the form of ZPP and unfavorable ecology led to a sharp increase in the number of infertile marriages. Shelves in women's consultations literally break from the cards of patients who have serious problems with conception and bearing. The urgency of the problem naturally provokes active research in this field, which, as a result, reveals the main causes of the disaster.
Infertility is not considered an independent disease. Most often this is just a symptom, and the reasons can be varied.
Perhaps the most common obstacle to conception is the infectious inflammatory diseases of women, and in particular their neglected forms. Often, the insidiousness of such diseases lies in the inconspicuous flow. A woman does not even suspect that something is wrong with her, and the infection in the meantime has its destructive effect, the consequences of which are hard to cure or even irreversible. Thus, chronic inflammation of the tubes lead to the formation of scars and adhesions on them, making them impassable. Oophoritis, or inflammation of the ovaries, leads to malfunctions in the process of ovulation. That is why it is so important to visit the gynecologist's office at least twice a year.
Another fairly often leading to infertility cause is a violation of the hormonal background. And this imbalance can concern not only the sex hormones, but also the hormones of the pancreas or the endocrine system. Because of such problems, a woman may not have any menstruation at all or the egg can not ripen, making conception impossible.
Dysfunctions of the ovaries manifest themselves irregular menstruation and cycles, the duration of which deviates significantly from the norm in greater or lesser degree. This problem is also considered a frequent cause of infertility.
In some cases, there is an early menopause, when the period of menstruation in a woman under 45 years of age completely ceases. However, now the European model of life becomes fashionable, when before a child is given birth, the girls prefer to make a career, earn enough money, etc. The age of the first-born in Russia is noticeably "matured". In addition, even from a medical point of view, the early menopause is not the norm and its cause, ovarian malnutrition, is treatable.
Often, the appearance of two coveted polosochek on the test prevents polycystosis. The cause of this disease lies in the increased level of male hormones (androgen and testosterone). This deviation from the norm leads to the inability to mature a full-fledged ovum, and one can suspect a violation by scattering of inflamed acne on the face and an obvious hypertrichosis (excessive "hairiness").
Various problems in the cervical channel are also included in the list of which female diseases will lead to infertility. The increased density of mucus in the cervix does not allow spermatozoa to penetrate inside. In some cases, the chemical composition of this mucus can generally be poisonous for the nimble carriers of a new life.
Erosion of the cervix, as gynecologists assure, in itself can not be the cause of infertility. However, the violation of the integrity of the cover of this important for conception and vynashivaniya body, as well as the presence of polyps in the cervical canal sometimes change the mucus, which reduces the chances of conception.
A separate category of causes of female infertility are the problems with the pipes. They can be completely or partially impassable, and sometimes problems are associated with changes in their mobility. More often all pathologies of this type are a consequence of infections and inflammations of the genital tract. In addition, the emergence of defects can lead to unsuccessful births, miscarriages, abortions (especially criminal), some diseases of internal organs (for example, colitis or chronic appendicitis).
Pipe changes that prevent conception can be very different - from simple disruption of the lining of this organ from the inside of the cilium to a dangerous accumulation in the sealed tube of a liquid (hydrosalpinx).
It is not rare and congenital malformations of the reproductive system, manifested in the pathological structure and development of the uterus and tubes.
Surgery, for example, to remove cysts on the ovaries, and various infectious diseases provoke the formation of scars, which, in turn, interfere with the development of the follicle and lead to the disappearance of ovulation.
Sometimes the timely release of a full-fledged mature egg is prevented by the "undisturbed" follicle at the right time. The reasons for this inability to conceive a seemingly perfectly healthy woman are being clarified, but for the time being there is no theory explaining this phenomenon.
Infertility leads to a woman's disease, such as endometriosis. Its essence lies in the fact that the elements of the tissues lining the uterus from the inside penetrate into the other parts of the pelvis. This contributes to the formation of cysts, prevents the maturation of the egg and its fusion with the spermatozoon, and also the attachment of the embryo to the walls of the uterus.
Any pathological formation in the uterus cavity plays the role of a natural contraceptive in the form of a spiral, preventing the fertilized egg from taking its position in the endometrium. These are all kinds of polyps, fibroids and congenital changes - such as saddle, double or bicornic uterus. Ultrasound can help detect these changes, but their treatment is rather complicated and long.
Finally, there are also psychological causes of infertility, when due to constant "fixation" on conception, subconscious rejection of pregnancy or due to stresses, the natural functions of the female body fail.
In no case should you despair. A high level of modern medicine today allows you to identify and correct the most severe pathologies. The main thing here is to realize the problem and turn to help in time.
