    Transcript

    00:01 In a nutshell, the inability to conceive after 12 months of unprotected intercourse for clients under the age of 35, or 6 months for clients over the age of 35 is the quintessential definition of infertility.

    00:16 Common factors of female factor infertility include hormonal and ovulatory factors, tubal and peritoneal factors, uterine factors and cervical factors.

    00:28 Common factors of male infertility include structural and hormonal issues and factors that affect the quality of the sperm.

    00:37 Clomiphene citrate and letrozole can be used to induce ovulation.

    00:42 Progesterone can be used to stabilize the endometrium.

    00:46 Nonpharmacologic treatments such as stress reduction, changes in nutrition, weight loss and lifestyle changes can in fact impact fertility.

    00:57 Ectopic pregnancies and multiple gestation are possible complications of infertility treatments.

    01:06 All done.
