Female infertility is caused due to structural problems like blocked Fallopian tubes, defect in cervical canal, uterine fibroid or polyps, hormonal imbalance; Leading ovulation problems too can cause infertility. From Ayurvedic perspective, shukradhatu (reproductive material) can get affected by various physical, mental causes and even by serious diseases. Poor quality shukradhatu can cause infertility in males & females.
