Patient's question:
Female, 25 years old, I have been married for 12 years. During this time, I have never used contraception, but I still haven't been able to get pregnant. What could be the reason? Is it infertility? Please ask: How can infertility be treated effectively to achieve good results?Doctor's answer:
(1) Congenital testicular dysgenesis or cryptorchidism leading to impaired spermatogenesis(2) Varicocele, hydrocele of the tunica vaginalis
(3) Inflammation of the reproductive tract
(4) Immunosuppression and endocrine disorders
(5) Chromosomal abnormalities, particularly sex chromosome aberrations, severely affect sperm density, motility, and other parameters
(6) Factors such as drugs affecting spermatogenesis, insecticides, heavy metals, radiation, smoking, and alcohol intoxication can inhibit sperm production. However, in a small subset of patients, despite thorough examinations, the cause of reduced sperm count remains undetermined, known as idiopathic oligospermia. It is recommended to visit a hospital for detailed examinations to identify the underlying cause. If the infertility is due to acquired disease factors, there is a possibility of cure. Infertility is a common gynecological condition.
