Patient's question:
I have been married to my wife for many years, and we have not used any contraception, but we have never been able to conceive. After checking at the hospital, I found out. Please ask how to prevent immunological infertility.Doctor's answer:
Immunological infertility refers to infertility caused by immunological factors. Autoimmune responses to antigens in the reproductive system can be triggered in both males and females, leading to autoimmune infertility, such as male anti-sperm immunological infertility and female anti-perivitelline autoimmune infertility. Sperm antigens can also cause homologous anti-sperm autoimmune reactions in females, known as homologous anti-sperm autoimmune infertility. Immunological infertility is caused by abnormal autoimmune factors in the body. Prevention efforts should focus on a balanced diet, personal hygiene, regular physical exercise to enhance immunity, and appropriate sexual practices. Excessive frequency or over-coldness during sexual activity can negatively affect the body, leading to a decline in male sperm quality.
