Patient's question:
Our husband and wife have also gone through many medical examinations to check their health, and there were no issues found. They have been seeking traditional Chinese medicine treatment for a year without any effect. My mother-in-law is very upset about this. The latest visit to the provincial hospital doctor said it might be immunological infertility. What treatment should be used?Doctor's answer:
Semen is a female-specific antigen. When exposed to blood, both men and women can trigger autoimmune reactions, producing additional antibodies that hinder the fusion of sperm and eggs, leading to infertility. It is recommended that the diagnosis of antisperm antibodies should first undergo medical examination. If diagnosed, consider using condoms to prevent sperm from coming into contact with women. New antisperm antibodies do not produce and gradually disappear. This process generally takes at least a year. This can also be combined with oral low-dose corticosteroids to suppress autoimmune reactions, which typically requires more than 3 months.
