Classification

Infertility is grouped into two main categories

• Primary infertility:

Couples with primary infertility have never been able to conceive,

• Secondray infertility:

secondary infertility is difficulty conceiving after already having conceived and carried a normal pregnancy. Technically, secondary infertility is not present if there has been a change of partners.
