infections are a common yet mostly unknown cause of infertility. infections such a ureaplasma and lyme disease in the uterus. so many more infections than what are currently tested for are able to be spread via sex. fungal issues, parasites, etc. all leading to infertility.

I've been having problems with my period. I'm 39 and I was on birth control for 4 years. Been off bc for 1 whole year. My periods are havr always been regular on the dot. Now after being of bc They're regular but not normal. They're very light little to no flow. The type of "period" you get on placebo week. They las as little as 6 hours to 1 day. I dont know if the change it do to my age. My amh is 6.39 and I think I might have pcos,but my dr doesn't want to run tests to prove or disprove pcos since I don't "fit pcos picture"
