Hi, guys any of you had an experience with the ovulation dysfunction fertility? I accompanied my friend to a fertility clinic recently, and the diagnosis was appalling.

Though my friend had been having her cycle normally, she could not be able to get pregnant. This condition is what the doctor referred to as ovulation dysfunction.

From what I have all along known, infertility in women is a straight forward affair. However, this new twist, which understands contributes a sizeable chunk of childless women is worrying.

In this case, though the other tests proved she was OK, it was the ovulation test that finally brought everything home. A closer check revealed that she was not ovulating at all.

Such women do get their normal 28 ovulation cycle without ovulating. Quite strange. Tell me how to treat the condition?

Hi, I also only found out about 3 years ago that I have anovulatory periods along other things which left me shocked. I have always had regular periods - they always come to the exact date each month so never suspected I wasn't ovulating. I was advised to try clomid and still didn't ovulate so was then told IVF was my only option.

Good luck to your friend - I hope she's doing okay, she's lucky to have you looking out for her x

Hi frida775. Fortunately there are many treatments available to treat ovulation problems, ranging from the use of drug treatment such as Clomid tablets to IVF. I'm sure her clinic will be able to offer some appropriate treatment. Hope all works out well. Diane
