Infertility is the disease of the reproductive system defined by the inability to achieve a clinical pregnancy after 12 or more months of unprotected intercourse. The causes of infertility in women may include; not ovulating, fallopian tube blockage, or poor egg quality.

However, the causes of infertility in men include; low sperm count, poor sperm mobility, and sperms that aren’t formed correctly.

However, the issue of infertility goes well beyond its definition for those going through the challenges of building their family. Your struggle through infertility can be frustrating and isolating.

This is why it’s important to raise awareness around infertility. Every year we welcome Infertility Awareness Week from 18 to 24 April 2021. Infertility Awareness Week 2021 aims to dispel the common misconception about infertility.

The mission of Infertility Awareness Week

The Infertility Awareness Week started with the mission to empower you to change the myths around infertility. Most of the couples feel isolated when they struggle to build a family. Considering the scenario, infertility week aims at empowering them to share their story and find a community that cares.

The basic objective behind this infertility week is:

• Enhance public understanding regarding infertility needs.
• Ensure that people who want to build a family must know the guidelines and procedures of infertility.
• Educate lawmakers about the impact of infertility on the state.
