Infertility is a global phenomenon affecting about 1 in 6 people. And contrary to the common perception, it affects men and women equally. According to research, male and female infertility is responsible for 33% of infertility cases each, whereas another 33% involve problems with both partners.
There can be a multitude of reasons behind a couple’s inability to conceive, but ovulation disorders are the most common cause of infertility in women. Men, on the other hand, most commonly struggle with poor sperm quality, low sperm count, or motility issues. Other common fertility problems include PCOS, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, structural reproductive system issues, autoimmune disorders like lupus, poor egg quality, sexual dysfunction, genetic disorders like cystic fibrosis, and low testosterone levels.
Given the widespread fertility issues, there are various treatment approaches available to address them and help improve the chances of a successful pregnancy. Acupuncture is one of them!
