[Prevention of infertility : recognizing and targeting numerous risk factors].

Abstract

Follow-up consultations in gynaecology and general practice offer valuable opportunities to discuss fertility and the importance of a pre-conceptional assessment before attempting pregnancy. During these consultations, it is vital for healthcare professionals to provide patients with essential information about considerations before conceiving a child. Additionally, it is important to educate patients about basic hygiene practices that can impact both male and female fertility. The prevention of fertility disorders requires a holistic approach identifying and targeting numerous risk factors.
