Patient's question:
Married for many years, I have been actively trying to conceive with my husband, but there has been no good news so far. I am very anxious. Please ask: How can immune infertility be treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello! Immunological infertility can be effectively treated and pregnancy can occur afterward. In about 20% of infertile couples, the cause remains unclear. With the advancement of perinatal immunology tests, it is believed that most of these cases are due to autoimmune factors. The cause of immunological infertility in women is typically when the husband's semen gains an antigen in the vagina, which is then processed by vaginal or cervical epithelial cells. This leads to the appearance of antibodies in the woman's blood or cervical mucus that counteract the husband's sperm, causing sperm that have already penetrated the cervix to become immobile, clumped, or nearly dead. It is important for infertile couples to seek proper medical examination and treatment at a reputable hospital to avoid missing the best opportunity for childbirth!
