female infertility; inability to carry a pregnancy to full term
Medical term for a condition where a woman can conceive but repeatedly fails to carry a pregnancy to term. Often used in clinical contexts.
I visited a specialist clinic to investigate the cause of my infertility.
Infertility (fukuishō) refers to a condition where a woman conceives but repeatedly experiences miscarriages or stillbirths.
Compound of 不 (fu, 'not') + 育 (iku, 'nurture, raise') + 症 (shō, 'condition, disease'). The term is a modern medical coinage.
