The female reproductive system is a complicated but a fascinating subject. It has the capability to function intimately with nearly every other body system for the purpose of reproduction.
Infertility means difficulty in becoming pregnant (conceiving) despite having regular sex when not using contraception. There is no definite cut-off point to say when a couple is infertile. Many couples take several months to conceive.
Doctors usually suggest some tests if a couple have not conceived after one year, despite regular sexual intercourse. After two years, treatment may be considered. Tests or treatment may start earlier if the woman is older, or if there is an obvious reason why a particular couple will not conceive, however long they try.
I have seen this behaviour especially among women to consider pain as a normal part of their body. Which is not the case. Painful periods, scanty periods and irregular periods are red flags, which you must not ignore at any stage.
Consult your gynaecologist right away, if you have been experiencing any abnormalities regarding the anatomy of your reproductive organs. Dr. Rahul Manchanda elaborates further:-
The medical field has made some significant advancements so don’t hold yourself back, don’t think it’s normal, and please don’t think that it not curable. Consult a gynaec before jumping the fence.
