Of course every woman has the tendency to get pregnant. But at times our daily activities or other things might obstruct the reproductive organs.

What is Fertility?
Fertility is the quality of being able to produce children. As a measure, the fertility rate is the average number of children that a woman has in her lifetime and is quantified demographically.
Tests to find out the cause of infertility in women include:
1. Blood tests. Samples of your blood can be tested for a hormone called progesterone to check whether you’re ovulating.
2. Chlamydia test. Chlamydia is an STI- sexual transmitted infection that can affect fertility.
Ultrasound scan.
X-ray.
Laparoscopy.
In general:
women are most fertile before the age of 30. After 30, women’s fertility starts to decrease.
After 35 fertility declines more significantly.
By 40, a woman’s fertility is about half the level it was before she was 30.
A woman’s peak reproductive years are between the late teens and late 20s. By age 30, fertility (the ability to get pregnant) starts to decline. This decline becomes more rapid once you reach your mid-30s. By 45, fertility has declined so much that getting pregnant naturally is unlikely for most women.
If your menstrual cycle lasts 28 days and your period arrives like clockwork, it’s likely that you’ll ovulate on day 14. That’s halfway through your cycle. Your fertile window begins on day 10. You’re more likely to get pregnant if you have sex at least every other day between days 10 and 14 of a 28-day cycle
Common Signs of Infertility in Women
1. Irregular periods. The average woman’s cycle is 28 days long.
2. Painful or heavy periods. Most women experience cramps with their periods.
3. No periods. It’s not uncommon for women to have an off month here and there.
4. Symptoms of hormone fluctuations.
5. Pain during sex.
