Disease/Condition Glossary

Female Infertility: When a woman cannot become pregnant within a year of trying without the use of contraception, then the condition is called female infertility. If a woman gets pregnant but experiences miscarriages or stillbirths, it is also included in infertility. It can occur due to ovulation disorders (problems with ovaries), fallopian tube damage, and uterus or cervix problems. The risk factors can be age, being overweight or obese, smoking, alcoholism, and the presence of sexually transmitted infections.

Hypogonadism: It is a condition in which the gonads (testes in men and ovaries in women) produce insufficient sex hormones. Sex hormones are responsible for secondary sexual characteristics.
