Patient's question:
I've been married for several years, but so far, we don't have any children. I'm very anxious about it myself, not knowing if it's my problem. I've asked my husband to get checked, but he refuses. I'm so afraid that my condition might worsen. If I have infertility, what should I do? I feel like I'm on the verge of giving up.Doctor's answer:
Autoimmune factors, sperm and seminal fluid producing antibodies that counteract their own sperm can lead to male infertility. Ejected sperm undergo self-aggregation and are unable to penetrate cervical mucus. Endocrine dysfunction, such as hypothyroidism, hyperadrenocorticism, and hypopituitarism, can also cause infertility! Treatment should be tailored to the specific condition, and prompt medical attention is necessary.In addition to timely treatment during infertility therapy, the patient's dietary habits and psychological state are also particularly important. It is essential to maintain a light diet and a consistently cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary impacts on the complete recovery from infertility.
