An assessment of factors influencing infertility in a rural Nigerian community revealed a prevalence rate of 12.9% primary infertility. Secondary infertility among the subjects was 54.1%. Age, education and religion of respondents had statistically significant influence on infertility (P less than 0.05) but not income (P greater than 0.05). The correlation between age of respondents and infertility was statistically significant (P less than 0.05). Primary health care efforts aimed at implementing maternal and child health care should explore the traditional customs on infertility in rural areas of developing countries.
