Experts Highlight Importance of Preconception Tests Amid Rising Infertility in India

Infertility affects about one in six Indian couples, with many suffering silently due to stigma and lack of awareness. Experts emphasize that fertility challenges involve both men and women, recommending preconception health evaluations for both partners. Tests like semen analysis for men and hormonal assessments, including the Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) test for women, help evaluate reproductive health. Early detection and lifestyle changes can improve outcomes, though some tests do not predict pregnancy chances directly.
