Parenthood is the dream of every couple. The urge to procreate is genetically motivated and is one of the greatest
sources of enduring joy for couples.
Yet, given increasing levels of infertility in today's generation, there are millions of couples who pine for the joy of having a baby.
Most people will have a strong desire to conceive a child at some point during their lifetime. Most couples (approximately 85%) will achieve pregnancy within one year of trying, with the greatest likelihood of conception occurring during the earlier months. Only an additional 7% of couples will conceive in the second year. As a result, infertility has come to be defined as the inability to conceive within 12 months.
