Uterine Or Cervical Abnormalities And Fertility

-



Infertility can be caused by many things. If you are trying to get pregnant and have had a year or more of unprotected sexual intercourse, you and your partner should be checked for fertility issues. Problems with a woman’s uterus and/or cervix are among the problems that can cause infertility.

When there are abnormalities with the uterus, egg fertilization and embryo development can be affected. These abnormalities include:

- Fibroids – These benign tumors located in the uterine wall can change the shape or size of the uterine cavity and affect the ability of an embryo to implant. In rare instances, they may block the fallopian tubes.

- Endometriosis – When endometrial tissue implants and grows outside of the uterus, the function of the ovaries, uterus and fallopian tubes may be affected.

- Polyps – Fertility can be affected by either uterine polyps or cervical polyps. Uterine polyps are lesions of the uterine wall, and cervical polyps are smooth growths in the cervix. Polyps can impair fertilization or growth of an embryo.

- Adhesions – These are bands of scar tissue that form between or inside abdominal organs. When uterine adhesions are severe, they can block or distort the inside of the uterus. This can cause difficulty in carrying a pregnancy to full term.

Male Fertility And Anabolic Steroids

-

Male infertility can be a very sensitive and difficult issue for many men to accept. It can come as a big surprise that they may be creating the problem by taking certain supplements – especially (anabolic) steroids. Steroids that are used to enhance strength and fitness can actually drastically lower a sperm count (to zero in many cases). These types of steroids can do damage to male fertility. The drugs interfere with the hormone signals required to produce sperm. The amount of damage depends on which drugs are being used, the dosage and how often they are taken. Anabolic steroids can be found in some fitness and muscle-building dietary supplements from unreputable companies. Excessive amounts of anabolic steroids may help you achieve a more muscle-bound physique; however, at the same time, it can also lower your sperm count considerably. Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) are important hormones in sperm production. These drugs affect FSH and LH and i...

Testicular trauma refers to damage to the testicles, which hang outside of your body and are vulnerable to being hurt. Your scrotum is the tissue that covers your testicles, but there’s no other protection from muscles or bones. Much of the time, testicles can absorb the shock that comes from an injury without serious damage. At other times, you may need to seek medical attention for treatment. Trauma can hurt your scrotum and your testicles, even tearing the protective tissue or causing the testicles to split open. Your testicles make sperm and hormones. Testicular trauma can harm those functions and interfere with blood flow. Who Is Affected By Testicular Trauma? Testicular trauma can affect anyone with one or two testicles. They are outside the body and have little protection. What Are The Types Of Testicular Trauma? There are several types of testicular trauma, including: - Contusion:  This is a bruise or a hematoma, a collection of blood beneath tissues. - Testicular torsion:...
