According to the Hong Kong Council on Human
Reproductive Technology, a couple may be classified as
"infertile" or "sub-infertile" if pregnancy has not
occurred after one year of regular unprotected sexual life. In Hong Kong, an
estimated one in six couples has difficulty conceiving due to different
reasons.
There
are many reasons for infertility. Problems affecting male fertility include
tubal obstruction or damage, semen abnormality or unexplained infertility while
those affecting women include ovulation disorders, endometriosis and
unexplained infertility. Age may also be one of the other factors affecting
fertility.
A
Reproductive Technology (RT) procedure means a medical, surgical, obstetric or
other procedures assisting or bringing about human reproduction by artificial
means. RT treatment may be considered as one of the options to increase the
chance of conception. Apart from RT treatment, other methods such as timed
intercourse, drug therapy and surgery may be recommended by medical
practitioners. You are strongly advised to consult your doctor for the most
appropriate and suitable procedures if you intend to go through infertility
treatment.
Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI)
