For some couples conceiving a baby may be more difficult than they had expected. Approxi- mately one in every 10 couples of childbearing age experiences infertility concerns. Infertility is defined as the in- ability to conceive after one year of unprotected sexual in- tercourse. After this time cou- ples should seek assessment from a health professional. Women over the age of 35 may wish to receive assistance earli- er. Looking at the cause of infer- tility can be complex. Problems can exist with the male, the fe- male, or in some cases both partners. Some of the common causes include: problems with ovulation, blocked fallopian tubes, endometriosis and male factors such as low sperm count. Unfortunately, there may be times even after thorough test- ing when the infertility 1s unex- plained. A person's lifestyle and over- all health may have an impact on their fertility. It is important to consider such things as a healthy diet, decreased alcohol and caffeine consumption and smoking reduction or cessation. Couples often feel like they are the only ones with this con- cern. When having difficulty be- coming pregnant they will often experience such feelings as frustration, embarrassment and depression. Talking to oth- ers about their infertility can be difficult. Infertility touches eve- ry aspect of a person's life and is a stressful time for couples. Emotional support may be found through a support group, family, friends or a health pro- fessional. For those who would like more information The Durham Region Health Department is pleased to offer on Monday, June 13 an evening presenta- tion on infertility. Guest speak- er will be Dr. N. Braithwaite, Obstetrician/Gynaecologist. The location will be the Mi- chael Starr Building, King Street West and Centre Street in Oshawa from 7-9 p.m. There is no admission charge for this presentation. Please register by June 6 at 723-8521, extension 2111. Society reminds us to be careful around the water With warm weather around the corner, millions of Ontari- ans will be cooling off in and around water these next months. The vast majority will have a fun and safe summer. Unfortunately, some will die accidentally and others will suf- fer debilitating injuries. On av- erage, 200 people die each year in Ontario in water-related ac- cidents, making drowning the third leading cause of acciden- tal death. Most drownings can be pre- vented by following three easy- to-remember rules. Wear your lifejacket, boat sober and super- vise your children. As Canada's leading aquatic lifesaving organization since 1896, the RLSSC wants to take this opportunity to remind its friends in the media of the many other ways they can hel Ontario residents enjoy a safe summer. The Royal Life Saving Society is a national, charitable organi- zation working to prevent drowning and water related in- juries through lifeguard and lifesaving training, public edu- cation, research and advocacy. Last year in Ontario the society certified more than 90,000 peo- ple in lifesaving and lifeguard courses.
