A diagnosis especially for couple who already bear another child or children and who are having trouble conceiving is Secondary infertility. Secondary Infertility extremely vary from the primary infertility and under this infertility, the couple are not able to conceive at least once.

Secondary infertility is often more difficult to accept -for the couple- as well as those around them. 'When are you going to have your next one?' a wise aunt quips at the family reunion. 'Cassie has a baby brother, I want one too, Mommy,' says your preschooler and 'Honey, don't wait too long,' reasons your mother-in-law.

If the system has worked already then it should work as before, right? In OB/GYN lingo, the mother has already a proven birth canal and so further. When it comes to the very first conceive, it is alike a small cake piece for majority of the parents. While subsequent or second times, it is also nothing but only another game of ball altogether.

Family dynamics

Some main reasons when it comes to secondary infertility can be that you don't have energy or time for intercourse during your most fertile period of the month because of your other children's demands.

What other physical factors to take note

Very long years may have been passed after once you conceive your first baby as well as your peak fertile period may also have been passed. When it comes to the maximum fertility period of the women, the age during the mid-twenties to mid-thirties is considered as the best period. However, the infertility starts to touches the women as soon as she reaches 38.

If significant weight is gain without shedding the pregnancy pounds then it can also lead to conceiving difficulty and hormonal imbalance. If a women loss her original partner with whom she had her very first child can also create the reason to raise a red flag for the reproductive endocrinologists.

The new partner may need some additional testing. Other more complicated factors could be polycystic ovarian syndrome, abortions or miscarried pregnancies and uterine or pelvic disorders after the first child was born.

Are you considering emotional factors

One of the emotional rollercoaster rides with secondary infertility is also when couples struggling with primary infertility feel that secondary infertility patients are being ungrateful. 'At least they have one child' and 'At least they have gone through the pregnancy and child birth experience once' is what they have to say. This can also be a reason why many secondary infertility cases are not talked about.

However, the case should not be this way. It's really hard to accept the secondary infertility. If it becomes harder to discuss about this matter then another layer of guilt and burden will be added on the parents. Generally, Couples are recommended to opt on a time frame by which they will attempt once for getting pregnant either considers other alternatives such as adoption or surrogacy. In addition, they can prefer other several tries where they have to go through specific treatment such as in vitro fertilization. However, Faith also plays a vital role in acceptance of any child of infertility.
