Female infertility is difficulty conceiving after a year of regular unprotected sex (six months if over 35). It affects around one in seven UK couples and has many possible causes, most of which can be investigated and treated.
Understanding Female Infertility
Medications for Female Fertility
What is female infertility?
Common causes include ovulation disorders (PCOS, thyroid issues), blocked fallopian tubes, endometriosis, fibroids and age-related decline in egg quality.
When to seek medical advice
See a GP after 12 months of trying, or after 6 months if you are over 35 or have known risk factors like irregular periods or previous pelvic infections.
Available treatments
Options include ovulation induction (clomifene, letrozole), hormonal treatments, surgery for fibroids or endometriosis, and assisted conception (IUI, IVF, ICSI).
What to expect
NHS funding for IVF varies by ICB in England and by country in the devolved nations. Private clinics offer shorter waits but at higher cost.
Self-care
Track your cycle, maintain a healthy BMI, take folic acid 400 micrograms daily when trying, limit alcohol, stop smoking and manage stress.
How Prescriptsy compares providers
We compare available options using verifiable attributes, not clinical suitability. Only a doctor working for the chosen provider can make that assessment.
We consider indicative price and availability, the consultation and prescription route, and public information about the provider and its licences.
Prescriptsy may receive a fee after a referral. This does not change the user's price or determine the medical information we publish.
Prices, stock and terms can change. Always verify final details with the provider; display order is not medical advice or a treatment recommendation.
