Patient's question:
Patient Age: 25Patient Gender: Female
Married and trying to conceive for 1 year without pregnancy, diagnosed with infertility. Please ask why she suffers from anovulation.
Doctor's answer:
Ovulation failure accounts for 25% to 30% of infertility cases and is a common endocrine disorder. In addition to infertility, patients often exhibit menstrual irregularities such as hypomenorrhea, oligomenorrhea, or amenorrhea, as well as symptoms like hirsutism and obesity. Due to prolonged anovulation, the endometrium becomes excessively fibrotic, lacking the counteracting effect of cyclic progesterone, thereby increasing the relative risk of developing endometrial or breast cancer.
