Patient's question:
The first child I had three years ago was quite normal. But now, I'm trying for a second child, and it's been a long time with no success. I suspect it's my problem. Please ask: Where is it best to treat immunological infertility?Doctor's answer:
Hello, immunological infertility refers to a condition where the patient's fertility and reproductive tract function are normal, with no signs of hemorrhagic disease detected, and the semen analysis of direct relatives falls within the normal range. However, there is evidence of anti-fertilization autoimmune immunity. It is caused by autoimmune or allogeneic autoimmune reactions to antigens in the reproductive system. In recent years, experiments on autoimmune factors have shown that there are mainly two types of immunological infertility: anti-sperm and anti-oolemma (zona pellucida) immunity. Due to the limited research on the latter so far, clinical diagnoses of immunological infertility almost always refer to anti-sperm immunological infertility. For patients with immunological infertility, in addition to immediate treatment, it is also important to pay attention to self-care, such as maintaining cleanliness, avoiding sexual intercourse, and reducing the intake of spicy and irritating foods. Lastly, it is advised that female patients must undergo regular follow-up examinations!
