Fertility index

The fertility index is a measurement used to estimate the likelihood of a woman becoming pregnant within a specific time frame, often based on factors like age, health, hormonal levels, and reproductive history. It helps assess a woman's reproductive potential by analyzing various biological indicators. While not a precise predictor for individual cases, a higher fertility index generally suggests greater chances of conception, whereas a lower index indicates reduced likelihood. This tool assists healthcare professionals in understanding reproductive health and planning appropriate fertility evaluations or treatments.
