The World Health Organization (WHO) describes infertility as a disability for couples in childbirth to attain pregnancy within 12 months of daily sexual intercourse. Infertility affects 13-20 per cent of couples worldwide, regardless of race or ethnicity. Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), also known as the "pregnancy hormone," plays a significant role in human reproduction. The present study was conducted in the departments of biochemistry and dept. of obstetrics and gynaecology. The study was conducted on two groups of 40 infertile Females and 40 healthy controls. Blood sample was collected for the estimation of prolactin and hCG was assessed by dry chemistry analyzer. Serum prolactin levels in infertile females is 33.96±11.46 and hCG levels was86.38±12.45 which was higher in infertile female as compare to healthy control with a p value of<0.05. Present study concludes that hyperprolactinemia is a major contributing hormonal factor in infertility among infertile women and, as such, prolactin and hCG should be measured in infertile women.
