In women, the first step is to find out if she is ovulating each month as problems with ovulation are the most common cause of female infertility. Ovulation problems are often the result of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). PCOS is a hormonal imbalance issue in women. Primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) is the next most common factor causing ovulation problems. POI is when the ovaries cease functioning properly before a certain age. There are many factors that affect male and especially female fertility.
