Patient's question:
Hello doctor! We've been married for several years and haven't been able to get pregnant, which has naturally made me quite anxious. So a few days ago, I secretly went to the hospital for a check-up without telling my husband. The doctor said it's ovulation disorder infertility. How could I possibly have this condition when my periods are usually so regular? After treating it for a while, it hasn't helped at all. What can we both do to improve our chances of getting pregnant?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, the size of mature follicles is 18-25mm. If the follicles cannot mature or do not ovulate after maturing, it is considered ovulatory dysfunction. The factors that can cause ovulatory dysfunction include: central nervous system anovulation; hypothalamic anovulation; pituitary anovulation; ovarian anovulation; polycystic ovary syndrome; luteinized unruptured follicle syndrome; others: endocrine disorders outside the gonads, such as thyroid and adrenal cortex dysfunction, as well as some systemic diseases like severe malnutrition, can affect the regulation of ovarian function and lead to ovulatory dysfunction. Since the factors or causes of the dysfunction are different, the treatment methods will also vary. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for a detailed examination to identify the factors or causes of ovulatory dysfunction infertility and receive symptomatic treatment.
