A subject that concerns everyone, but remains taboo

Fertility is a central topic for many people, and yet it is often surrounded by silence or misunderstandings. According to WHO statistics One in Six People Has Difficulty Conceiving, and this does not only affect women: men represent approximately 30% of identified causes of infertility, another 30% Being Linked to Women, and 40% to combined or unexplained factors. If you want the details of these infertility studies, you will find them Right Here.

But first of all, what is fertility?

Fertility refers to the ability to conceive a child. For this, several factors must be aligned:

  • For women : regular ovulation, permeable tubes, and a favorable uterine environment for implantation.
  • In humans : sufficient production of mobile and functional sperm.

In Theory, a Young and Healthy Couple at 15 to 25% chance of conceiving each month. However, this rate can be influenced by age, lifestyle, and various health conditions. In any case, and as you will discover in our section dedicated to Pregnancy, it's completely ok and completely normal not to get pregnant right away. Waiting a few months before becoming pregnant, if you do not have a known health problem, it does not mean that you are infertile.

endometriosis

Trouver un.e spécialiste
If you are here, you probably don't need to be reminded what endometriosis is. What we can tell you, on the other hand, is that it affects about 1 in 10 women and that it is being taken more and more seriously by the medical sphere. Being a female condition that has taken time to be considered, too little research has been done on the subject. At Reflet, we strongly believe in the positive impact of a global approach to patients with endometriosis. This approach is called “integrative”: this means that it involves care through various practices: medical (obviously), but also paramedical, complementary and emotional. Doctors are still too resistant to complementary approaches because there have been a lot of excesses and magic formulas announced when they do not really exist. Our aim is not to give you a magic formula. Our aim is to improve your overall well-being. This is why, specialty by specialty, we searched the net to find you studies, dissertations, surveys carried out by statistical institutes sometimes, by students at other times, in France and abroad. The aim? Get things done together for your well-being and in a secure way. This is exactly why we created Reflet: in addition to evangelizing on an integrative approach to health, we seek and select, city by city, the best multidisciplinary experts to support endometriosis. We want to help you and we want to do it with the best in their field, and only the best. In the rest of this page, you will find the known benefits of each of the approaches as well as mentions of the surveys, studies or dissertations carried out on the subject of various complementary practices and endometriosis. In all cases, it is essential to have regular medical follow-up for your endometriosis (gynecologist, general practitioner...). Integrative practices only come in addition to solid medical support.

oocyte freezing

Trouver un.e spécialiste
If you are here it is probably because you are considering egg freezing. Whether for medical reasons or because you are getting older, it is very healthy to ask yourself the question so for that, congratulations! This is a subject that is still little talked about, but since the biggest factor in infertility is age, egg freezing should be much more popular. It is not that all women should freeze their eggs, but all women should be informed about the possibility of doing so and the importance of asking themselves the question. And like all other topics related to fertility, freezing your oocytes in an optimal way can be supported by multidisciplinary experts. They can be a support both to explain the risks, to understand what motivates you to do this process or to increase the quality of your oocytes at the time of the puncture and therefore improve your long-term fertility. Since a global approach is key in our opinion, we bring you, in addition to the advantages of a multidisciplinary approach, a factual vision of things. We are seriously looking at the facts: what do the statistics say about egg freezing?

ART

Trouver un.e spécialiste
Approximately 2.5 million assisted reproductive technology (ART) cycles are performed worldwide each year. In big cities, dozens of centers, private or public, support couples and single women in medically assisted procreation. Many factors are taken into account in an ART procedure: age, lifestyle, emotional well-being... And in addition to support from the ART center, being supported and monitored by complementary professionals is key. Through our experiences, we have noticed that couples are sometimes sent too late by their gynecologist to assisted reproduction centers and that they are sometimes partially accompanied. Our objective with Reflet? Lay the foundations of the starting point of support, have a dedicated action plan and be supported by a multidisciplinary team that helps you along your journey. The aim? Support your dedicated medical team on site and your gynecologist. Reflet offers multidisciplinary support and a global career, but your file must always be followed up by your gynecologist first. Some gynecologists sometimes question the impact of other professions in a global context: this is why we looked for all the existing studies and statistics that support the benefits of a multidisciplinary approach.

PCOS

Trouver un.e spécialiste
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common hormonal disorder, affecting approximately 1 in 10 women of reproductive age. It can lead to ovulation disorders, infertility, excess androgens, acne, weight gain, and menstrual cycle disorders. We talk about it more and more, that's for sure (and that's good), but are we really supporting it in the best way possible? Indeed, there are countless companies that sell miracle food supplements, but to treat PCOS in a personalized way, it is also and above all to refocus on yourself. How do we react? What do we personally need? Gynaecological medicine and support are key, as are other existing approaches, and some international studies confirm their positive impact on PCOS.

Questions about Fertility ?

What are the fertility statistics worldwide?

According to WHO, 17.5% of total couples encounter difficulties conceiving. This rate is increasing and, according to studies, it is primarily linked to the older age of conception, which therefore has an impact on overall fertility.
In addition, INED takes an average of 7 months To Get Pregnant So Don't Panic! Also, if one person in the couple smokes, we go up to 12 months and we go up to an average of 18 months if both partners smoke.

⏱️ Temps moyen pour tomber enceinte selon l’âge (France)

Âge de la femme Délai moyen estimé
25 ans 3 à 5 mois
30 ans 6 à 7 mois
35 ans 8 mois
40 ans 12 à 18 mois

Note : Ces délais sont des moyennes issues d'études démographiques (INED, INSERM) et de la pratique clinique. L’âge est un facteur clé de fertilité. Après 35 ans, la fertilité diminue, et un accompagnement médical peut être envisagé au-delà de 6 à 12 mois sans grossesse.

When is someone considered infertile?

Infertility is considered when you have tried to conceive a child naturally for more than a year. However, this does not mean that you are definitively infertile: after one year, gynecologists recommend going on assisted reproduction courses to get help with conception. Common causes of infertility include the following:

  • Age : fertility declines naturally from the age of 35, with a marked decrease after 40;
  • Hormonal disorders : polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), ovarian failure, thyroid problems... ;
  • Tubal or uterine abnormalities : endometriosis, fibroids, or sequelae of past infections;
  • Sperm alterations : low numbers, reduced mobility, or abnormalities in sperm shape;
  • Environmental Factors : tobacco, alcohol, overweight, excessive heat (frequent wearing of tight clothing);
