Here are some of the common myths and the facts about fertility:
Myth: Fertility problems only affect women.
Fact: Fertility problems can affect both men and women equally. Male reproductive problems account for one-third of infertility cases, female reproductive problems account for another one-third, and the rest are due to both parties or unknown factors. Therefore, it is important to evaluate both partners when diagnosing and treating infertility.
Myth: More than 2 growing follicles during IUI therapy provide a higher pregnancy rate.
Fact: There is a common myth associated with IUI therapy, which says that if more than 2 follicles are observed in follicular monitoring, it indicates a higher pregnancy rate. But in reality, the growth of more than 2 follicles during the therapy leads to the risk of multiple pregnancies.
Myth: Follicular monitoring is only necessary for women undergoing fertility treatment.
Fact: Follicular monitoring is a process that uses ultrasound scans to track the growth and development of ovarian follicles during a menstrual cycle. It can help identify the optimal time for ovulation and conception, as well as diagnose any ovulation-related problems.
