Relating to or characterized by the absence of pregnancy or inability to become pregnant.
From 'acyesis' + the adjective suffix '-ic'. This medical term derives from Greek roots meaning 'not' and 'pregnancy,' creating an adjective form to describe conditions associated with non-pregnancy.
Medical terminology piles up these Greek-based words because doctors needed precise terms to distinguish between different causes of infertility—each condition needed its own name for diagnosis and treatment!
