Patient's question:
Already diagnosed with infertility for many years, I have seen many doctors and changed many hospitals, but I have never successfully conceived. I am almost desperate. Please ask: How should I deal with immune infertility?Doctor's answer:
Immune infertility generally does not have obvious symptoms. If a couple has been married without using contraception and has not become pregnant after normal sexual activity for more than 2 years, and both partners do not have obvious reproductive system disorders, then it is necessary to consider immune infertility. Additionally, men may develop antisperm antibodies due to damage to the blood-testis barrier, leading to autoimmune cells attacking sperm. Therefore, men who have had conditions such as vas deferens injury or testicular/epididymal inflammation should be more vigilant. Treatment methods should be determined based on the underlying cause, and assisted reproductive technologies such as artificial insemination may be used when necessary. Immune infertility patients can still conceive.
