Patient's question:
I've been married for several years, and so far, we don't have any children. I'm also very anxious about it, not knowing if it's my problem. I've asked my husband to get checked, but he refuses. I'm afraid my condition might worsen. Could you please tell me how infertility treatment works?Doctor's answer:
Don't hurry, first, it's recommended that both the man and woman abstain from sexual activity for three to five days, then try coitus during the ovulation period. Use the man-on-top position, and after each sexual encounter, don't rush to withdraw the penis. Placing a pillow under the woman's hips can also enhance the chances of conception. Excessive sexual frequency may also affect conception. If you've been married for two years and have had normal sexual activity without pregnancy, it may be time to consider infertility. In that case, both partners should abstain for three to five days and undergo a thorough medical examination at the hospital. The man should have a semen analysis, while the woman should have tests for six sexual hormones, basal metabolic rate, ovarian function, and immunological tests. It's recommended that you and your partner visit a regular hospital for a comprehensive and systematic examination to identify the cause of infertility and receive targeted treatment.
