Overview
Anovulation is a condition in which a woman does not ovulate, or release an egg from her ovary, regularly. This can disrupt the normal menstrual cycle and make it difficult to predict when ovulation will occur. Anovulation is a common cause of infertility in women and can be caused by a variety of factors including hormonal imbalances, medical conditions, lifestyle factors, and medications. If left untreated, anovulation can lead to infertility. Treatment options for anovulation-related infertility include medication, lifestyle changes, and assisted reproductive technologies.
