Patient's question:
I met my husband when I was in college, and we never took any contraceptive measures while dating. However, I have never been pregnant. Now that we're preparing to get married, my family elders keep urging me, which is really annoying. Could you please tell me: What are the signs of immunological infertility?Doctor's answer:
Hello!1. Autoimmune: This refers to the male sperm, seminal fluid, or female eggs, reproductive tract secretions, hormones, etc., flowing out of the reproductive tract and entering the surrounding tissues of the body, triggering an autoimmune response in the body. This leads to the production of additional antibody substances in the body, affecting sperm vitality or follicle maturation and menopause.
2. Alloimmune: This refers to the male sperm or seminal fluid acting as antigens in the female body, leading to the production of antibodies that cause sperm agglutination or loss of motility. Under normal circumstances, women do not produce an autoimmune response, and only about 15%–18% of infertile women have anti-sperm antibodies.
