ABSTRACT
Fertility is the capacity to
produce offspring while fecundity is a woman's biological ability to reproduce
based on the monthly probability of conception (Wood, 1989). Clinical
infertility is defined as the inability to become pregnant after 12 months of
unprotected intercourse and 15% of the population in industrially developed countries
has been estimated to be affected (Healy et al., 1994 ). Fertility problems in
female are often directly linked to hormonal imbalance and anovulation which
·are commonly associated with ovulation, ovarian syndrome, premature egg
production, malfunction of hypothalamus, malfunction of pituitary gland,
scarred ovaries, premature menopause follicle problems, etc. The endocrine
system co-ordinates hormones thereby, maintaining proper hormonal balance.
Disorder of the endocrine systems results in over production or underproduction
of hormones which results from dysfunction originating in the peripheral
endocrine gland itself or from understimulation or overstimulation by the
pituitary gland. Sometimes, endocrine disorder especially underproduction of hormones
occurs because of abnormal tissue response to hormones (John, 2013).
