Patient's question:
How to find out the causes of female infertility? I got married last year, and recently I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried it might affect fertility, and I also feel extremely cold and sensitive to cold.Doctor's answer:
Infertility is a problem that troubles many families. As the number of infertile patients in our country continues to rise, the causes of infertility also become diverse. If the fundamental cause of infertility cannot be identified, effective treatment cannot be administered. Post-coital test is also a common method for diagnosing infertility. Below, we will briefly explain it.1. The best time to perform the post-coital test is when the female has reached her menopausal cycle. Patients should strictly refrain from sexual intercourse for 2 days before the test. The test should be conducted 6 to 10 hours after intercourse. If infertility still persists, the test should be repeated 18 to 24 hours after intercourse. The optimal time to perform the test is 2.5 hours after intercourse. Although there are more sperm in the mucus, it can more clearly determine the survival rate of sperm in the cervix.
