What is fertility

The parts of your body that help you do this are called your reproductive system.


A woman has eggs stored in her ovaries. A man makes sperm in his testicles (balls).


To start a pregnancy, a man’s sperm needs to fertilise a woman’s egg. This may happen when a man and a woman have sex. This fertilised egg is called an embryo and may grow into a baby.


Some people have difficulty getting pregnant or making someone pregnant. They may need treatment to help them.



Fertility in women:-


The egg leaves the ovary and moves along the fallopian tube. This is where it can be fertilised by a sperm. If it meets a sperm and is fertilised, the egg develops into a group of cells called

an embryo. The embryo moves to the womb where it settles into the womb lining. The embryo stays in the womb and grows into a baby.
