Infertility Center
Infertility is a common disease of the reproductive system that can affect both women and men. In India, 10-15 % of couples are affected by infertility. This can prevent men and women from getting pregnant or staying pregnant. With the advent of IVF technology in 1978 by Drs. Steptoe and Edwards, it has become possible to help women, conceive and stay pregnant. Today, IVF has become a routine procedure for making a family.
Is Infertility Curable?
Assisted reproductive technology has come a long way. It may not cure all cases, but can help couples to have children of their own. One in eight infertile men can be treated, and after treatment, couples can become pregnant naturally. Infertile women can also be treated to become pregnant and carry the baby to term.
