Urine pregnancy tests can detect pregnancy earlier than blood pregnancy tests.
Blood tests are done in a doctor's office. They can pick up hCG earlier in a pregnancy than urine tests can. Blood tests can tell if you are pregnant about six to eight days after you ovulate.
An increase in amount of cervical mucus is correlated with an increase in fertility leading to ovulation.
Changes in your cervical mucus can signal when you are fertile. After your period has finished, your cervical mucus gradually increases in amount and changes in texture. This change reflects the rising levels of the hormone oestrogen in your body. It also shows you are close to ovulating.
Endometriosis is the result of the lack of necessary uterine tissue growth.
Endometriosis occurs when tissue that normally grows in the uterus implants and grows in other locations. This extra tissue growth — and the surgical removal of it — can cause scarring, which may obstruct the tube and keep the egg and sperm from uniting.
Sperm allergy is an immune response in women against semen.
Some men have an immune reaction to semen, which causes them to produce anti-sperm antibodies that damage their sperm.
Infertility in men can be caused by retrograde ejaculation, semen that enters the bladder instead of exiting from the penis.
Retrograde ejaculation may cause infertility. However, semen can often be removed from the bladder and used during assistive reproductive techniques to achieve a pregnancy.
