Why Is Pregnancy Not Happening, Even If Ovulation Occurs?

Hello! Today, we will discuss an important question: Why doesn't pregnancy happen, even if a woman is ovulating? I am Anastasia Sokhach, an obstetrician-gynecologist and gynecologist-endocrinologist, and I will tell you about the four key factors that need to align for conception to take place.

Four Key Factors for Conception

• First Factor: Women's Reproductive Health

For pregnancy to occur, it is essential that there are no obstacles to the movement of sperm. This means that there should be no polyps, large formations, or other pathologies in the uterus, vagina, or ovaries.

• Second Factor: Male Sperm Quality

A good sperm analysis is required from the male partner. The sperm should be motile, active, and of good quality without abnormalities. This is a critical point for successful conception.

• Third Factor: Ovulation

Without ovulation, pregnancy is impossible. However, it's important not only to feel ovulation but also to confirm it through medical methods. This involves tracking follicle growth, its rupture, the formation of the corpus luteum, and progesterone levels to ensure proper ovulation functioning.

• Fourth Factor: Fallopian Tube Patency

The fallopian tubes play a crucial role in conception. They are the channels through which sperm reach the egg for fertilization. If the tubes are blocked, pregnancy cannot occur.

What to Do If Pregnancy Doesn’t Happen?

If pregnancy does not occur within a year of regular sexual activity, it is important to see a doctor to check these four key factors. By working together with your doctor, you can understand the reasons and find the best treatment.
