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 precautions should be taken when treating immunological infertility?Doctor's answer:
1. Immunosuppressive therapy: Through the stimulation of adrenal cortical hormone drugs, immune infertility can be treated. For example, two weeks before menopause, prednisone 5mg can be taken three times a day. It also has the effect of locally applying hydrocortisone to treat infertile women with anti-sperm antibodies in cervical mucus.2. It can be completed through intrauterine artificial insemination: Once anti-sperm antibodies are present in cervical mucus, it will affect conception. The husband's sperm can be fertilized in vitro to combine high-quality sperm and then perform intrauterine artificial insemination.
3. Barrier therapy: This primarily refers to women with sperm homologous immune infertility. Condoms can be used for several months to prevent sperm antigen stimulation of the female. After the antibodies disappear, artificial insemination can be performed during the ovulation period, which may lead to pregnancy.
