Patient's question:
Recently, I wanted to have a child and went to the hospital for a check-up. I found out that I don't have any follicles. No wonder I couldn't get pregnant before. What happens when a woman doesn't have follicles? Is there any medicine that can produce follicles and affect fertility?Doctor's answer:
Hello! If the follicle development is poor, using ovulation-inducing drugs forcibly in a short period to force ovulation, although the eggs can be released, these eggs are not mature enough to be fertilized normally. Even if fertilization occurs, it is prone to miscarriage, stillbirth, and other conditions. Anovulation is just a symptom, and clinically, it can be caused by many factors or etiologies, such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, and premature ovarian failure. When anovulation occurs, it is necessary to go to a formal infertility hospital for a six-hormone test and vaginal ultrasound to confirm the diagnosis before treatment. If necessary, a pituitary stimulation test should be performed to confirm the diagnosis and treat the underlying cause, which is scientific!
