Patient's question:
I went through menopause two years ago, but recently I've been experiencing intense itching in my outer labia and vaginal opening, and the odor of my discharge is also quite strong. Could you please tell me: What specific factors can lead to immunological infertility?Doctor's answer:
Immune infertility refers to a condition where the patient has normal menopause and reproductive tract function, no signs of sepsis are detected, and the semen analysis of direct relatives falls within the normal range, but there is evidence of antifertility autoimmune response; it is caused by autoimmune or allogeneic autoimmune reactions to antigens in the reproductive system. Recent studies on autoimmune factors suggest that there are mainly two types of immune infertility: anti-sperm and anti-ovum zona pellucida immunity. Due to limited research on the latter so far, clinical diagnosis of immune infertility almost always refers to anti-sperm immune infertility. Immune infertility is an easily occurring gynecological disease, and during medication, women need to pay attention to their self-care, especially in terms of nursing!
