A couple who is trying to get pregnant that has not conceived yet may become concerned about being infertile. While the words relating to infertility are often thrown around in a synonymous fashion, the two words have some clear differences that couples must understandInfertile or Infertility?
When doctors suggest that a problem with the pregnancy is infertility, he or she means that the couple is not able to conceive for at least two years while trying without using contraceptives. Infertility is only diagnosed in a couple that is unable to get pregnant through normal means for at least two years.

In general, doctors suggest that any couple where the woman is 34 years or younger seek medical assistance after one year of trying to get pregnant without results. Women who are 35 or older should discuss the problem with a doctor after six months of trying instead. This does not mean the couple has an infertility problem is infertile, but rather that most couples will conceive within one year of trying without
contraceptives Infertile:
The term is used to describe a time when a woman is unable to get pregnant. The term might be used to describe a general problem with
fertility where something is abnormal or the natural time period in a woman’s menstrual cycle when she is not able to become pregnant.
All women have a time through their menstrual cycle when they are not able to get pregnant. The time period is directly after a menstrual cycle finishes. The period of time before and during a menstrual cycle is the time when women are most fertile and likely to become pregnant.
Women who are not able to become pregnant during a time when they should be fertile, at the time between ovulation and a menstrual cycle, and when the problem persists for at least one year are eventually given a diagnosis of infertility.Infertility:
The problems with fertility that a couple faces vary depending on specific situations. Women might not become pregnant due to physical problems with her body. If the woman is the cause, the problem might include age, infections, blockages in the fallopian tubes, issues with ovulation, problems with the uterus that prevent implantation or a tubal litigation.
Any fertility problem that stems from the male partner in the couple is typically related to low quality of semen.
Fertility issues are often left undiagnosed in a couple because some causes are not yet known or too complex to determine a single factor.
Any couple that has an issue with natural conception might turn to medical assistance to get pregnant. Medical assistance will often vary depending on what the doctors determine as the cause. Options include medical implantation, taking antibiotics to remove an infection or getting a surrogate mother if the woman is unable to maintain a pregnancy.
Only a doctor can determine the appropriate choice for any specific couple based on the needs of the couple.
Infertility is a problem that might cause grief and heartache fpr a couple. Fortunately, a doctor can often help improve the chances of becoming
pregnant in couples who are
infertile.
