Introduction
The common reason for infertility in males is the sperm. The male may not be producing enough sperm. The sperm may have a short life and may not assist the egg in fertilization. There is fertility treatment for males that can help boost their sperm count. The most common reason for women's infertility is that there is a disorder in the ovulation phase. This will prevent the egg from developing and therefore will cause a blockage in the fallopian tubes. If you have any questions on why you can't seem to have children, check with a doctor that deals with infertility.


Many people desire to have children and can't figure out why it just isn't happening. Knowing the reason for infertility problems can help you decide what your next step is going to be. There are many common causes for infertility and one of these reasons could be the reason you are not able to conceive.

The Most Common Causes for Infertility in Men

Infertility does not have to take place within the woman's body and can take place within the male reproductive system. Figuring out who is the cause for infertility in your partnership should be the first step in the treatment process and can mean the difference between being successful and not being successful. Infertility can be caused by one factor or a combination of more than one.

In men the most common reason for infertility is a problem with their sperm. Sperm problems involve things such as the amount, quality and the lifespan of the sperm. The male may be producing sperm, but not making enough sperm. The sperm may also have too short of a lifespan and may not be viable enough to survive sexual intercourse.

Other complications and reasons for infertility are problems with the way the sperm is delivered. In many cases, the sperm is malformed and will not be able to live long enough to reach the egg for fertilization or the male may have erectile dysfunction, ejaculation issues or blockages in the ejaculatory ducts.

The Most Common Causes for Infertility in Women

In women, the most common reason for infertility is a disorder in ovulation. This problem will prevent the development of a viable egg and can include a blockage of the fallopian tubes. This can be caused by endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease, adhesions and scarring or poor amounts of ovarian reserves. Ovarian failure is usually caused by aging but can also be caused by other factors. Often times it can be a defect in the female anatomy that restricts the movement of the egg into the uterus or keeps the egg from being implanted.

Many factors can be involved in causing infertility and you will need to go to a doctor to find out what those factors are. The best option for you if you have been having trouble conceiving is going to a doctor who specializes in couples who are dealing with infertility.
