Infertility related problems among young men and women all over the world reveal a phenomenon Kashmir has been more prone to because of the stressful and special conflict conditions here. With spread of fertility clinics stigma attached to the problem in slowly going away and the awareness about availability IVF treatment is also spreading.  Saima Bhat examines and explains the issues involved. The condition is somewhat similar in Kashmir.  According to a study carried out by the Department of Endocrinology at Sher-i-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences in 2008, 15.7 percent of women in Kashmir who are of child-bearing age will never have a child without clinical intervention. PCOS (Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome) is believed to be one of the main reasons for this problem.Kashmir’s renowned endocrinologist, Dr. Ashraf Ganaiesays  that in recent years there has been a tremendous increase in the number of PCODpatients. A specific unpublished study revealed that 90% of female infertility problems are due to PCOD and related diseases, 5% are due to POF (Premature Ovarian Failure) and another 5% due to other stresses in our lives. All these problems have lead to a blooming of IVF (In-vitro Fertility) treatment centers in the valley. The IVF is a treatment where fertilization of the egg is done outside the womb in a Petri-dish. The man’s sperm and woman’s egg are fertilized in a vitro (glass) dish and after fertilization the resulting embryo is transferred into the uterus of the woman.Worldwide success rate of this IVF treatment is 40%. However, the percentage varies with age. It is highest when the patient is between 25-30 years while for patients below 21 and above 40 it can be less than 20 percent. Initially it was used on women who had tubal factor infertility, a condition in which the fallopian tubes are blocked, damaged or absent but today it is tried on most of the infertilitypatients.
