Fertility problems in men and women can arise due to conditions like PCOS, endometriosis, thyroid disorders, low ovarian reserve, or low sperm count, often without obvious symptoms.

Timely fertility testing helps detect these hidden issues early, allowing couples to take preventive measures or begin treatment before conception becomes difficult.

Fertility problems are on the rise among both men and women, and experts are urging couples not to wait for symptoms before seeking reproductive health tests. Early testing can identify underlying conditions and improve the chances of conception, especially for working couples who may be planning families later in life. With fertility challenges increasing, timely awareness, routine screening, and guidance can help couples plan effectively and take control of their reproductive health.

Fertility problems are rampant in men and women. Women may face hidden conditions such as polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), endometriosis, thyroid disorders, or low ovarian reserve, which can affect fertility even before any noticeable symptoms appear. Symptoms of fertility problems in women can include irregular or absent periods, pelvic pain, or hormonal imbalances, though many women may have no noticeable symptoms. Men, too, may have issues such as low sperm count, hormonal imbalances, or poor sperm quality, which can go undetected until conception becomes difficult. Hence, taking timely fertility checkups is key for everyone.
