Infertility is a deeply personal and often misunderstood topic. For many couples, struggling to conceive can bring emotional stress — made worse by outdated beliefs and misinformation. 💔
Dr. Vishakha A. Dang, a leading gynecologist and infertility specialist in Dehradun, is here to bust some common infertility myths and offer clarity to couples seeking hope and real solutions. 🕊️
❌ Myth #1: Infertility Is Always a Woman’s Problem
✅ Truth: Infertility affects both partners. Studies show that male factors contribute to nearly 40–50% of infertility cases. Issues like low sperm count, poor motility, or hormonal imbalances can all impact male fertility. Infertility is a shared journey — and so is the solution. 🤝
❌ Myth #2: If You’ve Had a Child Before, You Can’t Be Infertile
✅ Truth: Secondary infertility is real. Many couples face difficulty conceiving again even after a successful first pregnancy. Age, hormonal changes, or health conditions can be the cause. 🧠 Don’t ignore the signs — early consultation can help!
❌ Myth #3: Stress Alone Causes Infertility
✅ Truth: While chronic stress can affect hormone levels, infertility is rarely caused by stress alone. Medical issues like PCOD, endometriosis, fibroids, or thyroid disorders play a more prominent role. That said, a calm mind supports better health overall. 🧘♀️
❌ Myth #4: You Should Try for Years Before Seeking Help
✅ Truth: If you’re under 35 and trying for over a year, or over 35 and trying for 6 months without success — it’s time to consult a fertility specialist. Early diagnosis and treatment can make a big difference in outcomes. ⏳
❌ Myth #5: IVF is the Only Solution
✅ Truth: IVF is just one of many fertility treatments. Ovulation tracking, medications, IUI (Intrauterine Insemination), and lifestyle changes can also help. Dr. Vishakha Dang creates personalized fertility plans tailored to each couple’s needs. 💡
