Patient's question:
After one year of marriage, the couple had always wanted a child but had not been successful. After a thorough examination at the hospital, they discovered they had immunological infertility. I would like to know what are the better treatments for immunological infertility?Doctor's answer:
Treatment methods for immunological infertility:(1) Prevent antigen contact: Use condoms during each sexual encounter to prevent further stimulation of the female by sperm antigens. Once the female's sperm antibody levels decrease, encourage the patient to engage in condom use during ovulation or perform artificial insemination.
(2) Immunological infertility treatment: Immunosuppressive methods. Corticosteroid drugs have anti-inflammatory effects and can affect macrophage toxicity. Therefore, they can be used to treat immunological infertility.
(3) Intrauterine artificial insemination: When a patient's cervical mucus contains sperm antibodies that affect fertility, the husband's semen can be processed outside the body to combine with high-quality sperm for artificial insemination.
