Patient's question:
I've been married for several years, but so far, we haven't had any children. I'm very anxious about it and don't know 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 which department to go to at the hospital for a thorough check-up on infertility?Doctor's answer:
Infertility can be treated in the infertility department or the perinatal department. It is recommended that you go to a specialized hospital for a detailed and thorough examination to confirm the diagnosis and receive targeted treatment. Do not miss the best time for treatment. Before going to the hospital for examination, it is advised that both partners refrain from sexual activity for three to five days before the examination. The male partner should undergo a semen analysis, while the female partner should have tests for six sex hormones, basal metabolic rate, ovarian function, and immunological tests, among others. In addition, during the treatment of infertility, besides receiving targeted treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. The patient must always maintain a positive mood and eat a balanced diet to avoid unnecessary impacts on the complete recovery from infertility.
