Infertilidad, condición o problema: un desafío actual

The impossibility of procreating has always been a cause of anguish and pain since ancient times, regardless of its social connotations; However, achieving pregnancy is not something that always occurs in a simple and predictable way, as there are unexpected and unwanted events that force us to reformulate expectations in relation to fertility and all that this implies. The recognition of infertility as a global health problem is increasing every day. Although the scientific and technological progress made in the biology of reproduction is remarkable, the number of couples seeking counselling and treatment for infertility is increasing considerably. Becoming parents and creating a family is the goal of most couples, however, not all will be able to achieve it without some medical intervention, which is why infertility has been declared a Public Health problem by the World Health Organization (WHO)
