Why and how does Secondary Infertility happen?

About

The inability to conceive or carry a child after previously giving birth.

Secondary Infertility affects more than 3 million women in U.S. alone. (1)

- Medical diagnosis by a fertility specialist is required for confirmation.
- Affects both men and women.
- Lab tests and imaging are often required.
- Can be physically and emotionally painful.

Ages Affected - between 13 and 35 - highly unlikely; 35 years and above - highly probable
