Patient's question:
Total time of infertility: one and a half years. In August 2018, a thorough examination revealed intestinal obstruction in the interstitial part of the left fallopian tube, while the right side was normal. The doctor did not provide treatment, saying it could still be pregnant. Now, in March 2019, I have still not become pregnant. Today, I had a detailed check-up for six sex hormones, and the result showed thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) at 5.2. Could this be interfering with pregnancy? How should I be treated?Doctor's answer:
The normal value of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) is 4.2. Persistent elevation of TSH, sometimes below 10, is a clinical diagnosis for hypothyroidism, which can also lead to menstrual disorders. Regular follow-up of thyroid function is necessary. Currently, the aforementioned symptoms will not interfere with pregnancy. Please relax, enhance nutrition, maintain a proper diet, and adopt a healthy lifestyle. Keep the perineum clean and hygienic. It is recommended that the male partner undergo a sperm test for accurate assessment. The recurrence of fallopian tube issues poses a serious threat to women's health.
