It has been estimated that the chances of having baby decease by 3% to 5% per year after the age of 30 years. This reduction in fertility is noted to a much greater extent after the age of 40.
  • Smoking – It not only damages your cervix and fallopian tubes but increases your risk of miscarriage and ectopic pregnancy.
  • Weight – Being overweight or underweight affects normal ovulation. A healthy body mass index (BMI) may increase the frequency of ovulation and chances of pregnancy.
  • Sexual History – Sexually transmitted infections such as chlamydia and gonorrhoea can damage the fallopian tubes. It is caused mainly when having sex with multiple partners without using protection.
  • Alcohol – Excessive alcohol to be avoided
  • Stress – It is observed that couples with high level of mental stress are mostly infertile
