It is recommended that you undergo a sex hormone six-item test and a detailed ultrasound examination to confirm the diagnosis and then proceed with targeted treatment.Since each person's condition is unique, the appropriate therapy will also vary. Therefore, patients must identify the specific cause to receive targeted treatment, which is essential for achieving optimal results. It is advisable to seek medical attention at a reputable specialized hospital for infertility and reproductive health to avoid any impact on fertility.
