Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. How should I undergo thorough infertility testing?Doctor's answer:
Infertility: Causes 1. Vaginal factors 2. Cervical factors 3. Uterine factors 4. Tubal factors 5. Ovarian factors 6. Endocrine factors 7. Congenital factors 8. Systemic factors 9. Psychoneural factors 10. Others: Immunological infertility, blood type incompatibility (e.g., habitual abortion or stillbirth caused by Rh factor or ABO hemolysis)Traditional Chinese Medicine believes that infertility in women is fundamentally rooted in kidney deficiency, or due to inherent weakness and insufficient endowment; or due to careless sexual practices that damage kidney essence; or due to physical weakness and multiple pregnancies that harm the kidneys and spleen. The spleen is the source of essence and blood, and when the spleen is weak, the body lacks the energy to sustain fertility.
Women regard the liver as their innate organ. The liver stores blood and governs the smooth flow of qi. Liver stagnation and qi obstruction naturally lead to infertility.
