The Wish for a Child

If a couple fails to conceive the reason could be a fertility disorder. Just like any other health problem, having to deal with fertility disorders can cause anxiety and result in considerable emotional distress.

Infertility is a medical condition that arises if you, your partner or perhaps both of you, suffer from physical conditions that interfere with the reproductive process. Many people are surprised to learn just how frequently this condition arises. In Germany and Austria roughly one in every five to seven partnerships is affected by fertility problems. So you are certainly not alone in this situation and with your search for answers.

In most cases, infertility can be treated. Increasing the likelihood of a pregnancy is sometimes a very simple affair, in other cases forms of treatment are required that are tailored to individual needs. In many cases a drug therapy is enough to solve the problem, but occasionally more intensive forms of treatment such as in-vitro fertilisation or surgical procedures are necessary to increase the chances of success.
At this point it must also be said that despite all medical advances it is impossible to guarantee that treatment will be successful. Mother Nature is not a machine, but a complex interaction of body and soul.
