Patient's question:
Female, already 30 years old this year, but has been dating her husband for many years and has not been pregnant after marriage. Now, after examination, it is found to be a problem with me, and I feel very distressed and self-blaming. Please ask: How is female infertility thoroughly examined?Doctor's answer:
Genital factors: Congenital developmental abnormalities or acquired genital inflammation of the reproductive organs, such as vaginal malformations, vaginal stenosis, or hymen obstruction, can impede the patency and function of the perinatal lower tract from the vulva to the fallopian tubes, preventing sperm from swimming to and fertilizing the egg, leading to infertility.Immunological factors: This refers to the presence of antisperm antibodies in the female reproductive tract or serum, which cause sperm agglutination, loss of vitality, or death, resulting in infertility. Additionally, some infertile women have serum containing antibodies-like substances against their own egg's zona pellucida, which can hinder sperm penetration into the egg, leading to infertility.
