A word of infertility was used in the past for a state of not being able to get pregnant for a long time. However, as the wording of infertility can give a negative impression about pregnancy, a terminology of subfertility is being used often these days.

Medically, WHO defines subfertility as a state of not being able to get pregnant despite regular sexual relations without using contraception for more than 1 year. Since the age of women have close relations with subfertility, women aged over 35 years old and not being able to get pregnant for more than 6 months are recommended to seek medical advice considering subfertility. In case of not being able to get pregnant for a long time despite regular sexual relations, it is needed to see a doctor to check if there is any medical problem.
