Infertility is defined as failure to achieve pregnancy after 1 year of unprotected regular intercourse or therapeutic donor insemination in women <35 years old or within 6 months in women >35 years old. 
Ovulatory disorders account for about 30% of infertility and manifest clinically with irregular menstruation or absence of periods; other causes include cervical factors, endometriosis, tubal factors, and uterine abnormalities. 
Most couples will require diagnostic assessment.
Ovulation induction is part of the patient's management for polycystic ovarian syndrome which aims to achieve development of a single follicle and subsequent ovulation in a woman with anovulation.
