Patient's question:
I am a man and I am already 22 years old. I got married a year ago, but my wife hasn't been pregnant yet. I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and her health is quite good. If a man is treated for infertility, how long does it generally take?Doctor's answer:
If you have had normal sexual activity for over a year and have not become pregnant, it is important to get a thorough examination promptly. First, the male partner should have a semen analysis, which requires abstaining from sexual activity for 3 to 5 days. Then, observe your menstrual cycle. If your periods are irregular, check for six reproductive hormones and three thyroid function tests between days 2 and 5 of your period. Monitor the data to see how your menopause is progressing. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery and good health!
