Patient's question:
Started trying to conceive right after getting married with my husband, and it's been many years now without success. My menstrual cycle has also been quite irregular, so I suspect it might be my issue. Could you please tell me what the early signs of immunological infertility are?Doctor's answer:
Autoimmune response is a natural self-defense mechanism of the human body. When a woman's reproductive tract experiences inflammation or injury again, antibodies will be produced in her serum and cervical mucus.Antisperm antibody testing checks whether antisperm antibodies are present in a woman's blood. The doctor will also inquire about the patient's medical history, including any potential hereditary issues.
The examination for immunological infertility is conducted based on how autoimmune responses may be abnormal. After diagnosis, timely treatment is necessary. For patients with immunological infertility, in addition to taking medication, they must also pay attention to self-care, such as maintaining good hygiene in the private area and avoiding sexual activity during medication. Finally, the female patients are advised.
