After total body irradiation, recovery of gonadal function occurs in 10−14% of cases, and the number of pregnancies observed after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation involving such as procedure is lower than 2%. Genetic factors
There are many genes wherein mutation causes female infertility, as shown in table below. Also, there are additional conditions involving female infertility which are believed to be genetic but where no single gene has been found to be responsible, notably Mayer-Rokitansky-Küstner-Hauser Syndrome (MRKH). Finally, an unknown number of genetic mutations cause a state of subfertility, which in addition to other factors such as environmental ones may manifest as frank infertility. Chromosomal abnormalities causing female infertility include Turner syndrome. Oocyte donation is an alternative for patients with Turner syndrome.Some of these gene or chromosome abnormalities cause intersex conditions, such as androgen insensitivity syndrome. By location
Hypothalamic-pituitary factors
Hypothalamic dysfunction
Hyperprolactinemia

Ovarian factors
Chemotherapy (as detailed previously) with certain agents have a high risk of toxicity on the ovaries. Many genetic defects (as also detailed previously) also disturb ovarian function. Polycystic ovary syndrome (also see infertility in polycystic ovary syndrome)
Anovulation. Female infertility caused by anovulation is called "anovulatory infertility", as opposed to "ovulatory infertility" in which ovulation is present. Diminished ovarian reserve, also see Poor Ovarian Reserve
Premature menopause
Menopause
Luteal dysfunction
Gonadal dysgenesis (Turner syndrome)

Tubal (ectopic)/peritoneal factors
Endometriosis (also see endometriosis and infertility)
Pelvic adhesions
Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID, usually due to chlamydia)
Tubal dysfunction
Previous ectopic pregnancy.
Society and culture
Social stigma
Social stigma due to infertility is seen in many cultures throughout the world in varying forms. Often, when women cannot conceive, the blame is put on them, even when approximately 50% of infertility issues come from the man . In addition, many societies only tend to value a woman if she is able to produce at least one child, and a marriage can be considered a failure when the couple cannot conceive. The act of conceiving a child can be linked to the couples consummation of marriage, and reflect their social role in society. This is seen in the "African infertility belt", where infertility is prevalent in Africa which includes countries spanning from Tanzania in the east to Gabon in the west. In this region, infertility is highly stigmatized and can be considered a failure of the couple to their societies. This is demonstrated in Uganda and Nigeria where there is a great pressure put on childbearing and its social implications. This is also seen in some Muslim societies including Egypt and Pakistan. In the United States, and all over the world, infertility and women’s infertility at large is an invisible yet debilitating disease that is stigmatized and looked down upon. But, in recent years many have begun to sue organizations for infertility insurance coverage, as the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) has recognized infertility as a disability. This however adds another stigmatization to women suffering from infertility as the word disability has a negative connotation in various world societies.
