---

For healthy young couples, the likelihood of getting pregnancy varies. In 2010, an estimated 48.5 million couples worldwide were infertile [1]. This paper provides a review on infertility causes, investigations, treatment modalities and role of nurse midwife in dealing with infertile couples. Infertility (a state of subfertility) can be manifested either as the inability to become pregnant, inability to uphold a pregnancy, and inability to continue a pregnancy till term [2,3]. There are various causes of female and male infertility. A vast number of investigations can be done to rule out the exact cause of infertility both in males
and females. There are various treatment modalities that may be useful for the infertile couples. Although, for infertility treatment, couples visit gynecologists, but along with them the nurse midwives’ play an important role to help the couple explore and identify problems related to reproductive health and coordinate with multidisciplinary team to promote and
maintain reproductive health.
