Patient's question:
Started trying to conceive right after getting married with my husband, and it's been many years now with no success. My periods have also been quite irregular, so I suspect it might be my issue. Could you please tell me what tests are typically done for female infertility?Doctor's answer:
General causes of infertility in women are commonly related to fallopian tube issues, ovarian functional inflammation, such as fallopian tube blockage, uterine diseases, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), Sheehan's syndrome, anovulation caused by long-term stress, external environmental factors, and autoimmune factors, among others. You can visit a hospital for an ultrasound examination to carefully check the uterus, fallopian tubes, and other organs. Additionally, follicle tests, hormone tests, fluid infusion, or contrast imaging can be performed, along with thorough antibody tests.For infertile women, in addition to standard treatment, it is also important to pay attention to self-care. For example, maintain cleanliness, avoid sexual intercourse, and reduce the intake of spicy and irritating foods. Finally, it is essential to remind female patients to undergo regular follow-up examinations!
