Patient's question:
I've been married for a year, but I haven't gotten pregnant yet. I had a cervical polyp surgery three months ago. After the surgery, my menstruation was normal for two months, but then it became irregular in the third month—more in volume and occurring earlier. Does this affect pregnancy?Before getting married, my menstruation was also irregular, and it was the same situation. A Chinese medicine doctor told me that my uterus has a cold, and it's particularly cold. How can this be treated?
Every time my husband and I have sex, there is semen leakage, and it feels like very little is entering. Does this also affect pregnancy? What should I do?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, the factors causing female infertility include tubal factors, accounting for 1/3 of female infertility cases; ovulation disorders, such as luteal phase deficiency, uterine factors like endometritis and uterine fibroids; cervical factors such as cervical canal stenosis and cervical erosion; and vaginal factors like candidal vaginitis and trichomoniasis.Advice: First, please don’t be too anxious for her. Female infertility is quite common nowadays, and the chances of cure are generally high. It is recommended to seek treatment at a regular and professional infertility clinic.
Women are most fertile two to three days before and after ovulation. During the ovulation period, vaginal discharge significantly increases, becoming clear, transparent, and resembling egg-white-like strands. Specifically, the optimal time for conception is between the second day after menstruation ends and the 12th day, when intercourse is most likely to result in pregnancy.
