Patient's question:
I have been married to my wife for two years, and so far, we haven't had any children. Our family is very anxious about this. We went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and the results showed that my wife has luteal phase deficiency. Could you please tell me what symptoms are associated with luteal phase deficiency?Doctor's answer:
Patients with luteal phase defect generally show no specific symptoms, and it is only through careful examination that the condition can be identified. The main manifestations of luteal phase defect are infertility or miscarriage. The primary treatment for patients with luteal phase defect is to supplement progesterone. Additionally, human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) can be used to promote follicular growth. With proper coordination of treatment, pregnancy can still be achieved.Patients should develop good daily habits, maintain a regular schedule, avoid smoking and alcohol, and increase physical exercise to enhance their immunity and prevent the recurrence of the condition.
