Patient's question:
I have been married for many years, and my husband and I have been actively trying to conceive, but we have never received any good news. We are very anxious. Could you please tell me what immunological infertility patients should avoid eating?Doctor's answer:
The hazards of immunological infertility include the following points:1. Blocking sperm from penetrating cervical mucus, anti-sperm antibodies can cause sperm to clump together, hindering sperm movement. Sperm immobilizing antibodies exhibit cytotoxic reactions, leading to sperm death or interference with sperm motility. Additionally, they may disrupt sperm metabolism and the function of sperm condensin proteins.
2. Interfering with the movement of sperm enzymes, inhibiting the aggregation function of the zona pellucida and the corona radiata, including:
① Acrosin: Enhances sperm penetration through the zona pellucida and promotes fertilization;
② Hyaluronidase: Facilitates the aggregation of the corona radiata. Sperm antibodies primarily inhibit the activity of hyaluronidase, affecting sperm aggregation.
