How much is appropriate to treat immune infertility?

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 are preparing to get married, my family elders keep urging me, which is really annoying. Could you please tell me: how much does it cost to treat immune infertility?

Doctor's answer:

Immune infertility may refer to the presence of immune-competent cells in certain parts of the uterus or the presence of immunoglobulins in cervical secretions. Both of these reasons can lead to the body's autoimmune response to sperm, resulting in the production of endometrial antibodies, among other effects. However, since there is no direct contact with the immune system and no systemic autoimmune reaction is formed, it is referred to as local autoimmune response. The cause plays a dominant role in determining the direction of treatment. Although two patients may both have issues related to autoimmune factors, the differences in underlying causes can lead to significant variations in treatment costs, which is also normal.
