Patient's question:
I've been married to my wife for 2 years, and we haven't had any children yet. At first, we didn't want to have kids, and we've been using condoms. Six months ago, we decided to have a child, so we stopped using contraception. But until now, my wife hasn't gotten pregnant. When we got married, we had a pre-marital health check, and they said everything was fine. However, this time we didn't get checked because we felt too embarrassed. I'd like to ask, what factors or conditions usually cause infertility?Doctor's answer:
Experts from Wuhan True Love Gynecological Hospital remind: There are many causes of infertility. In addition to reproductive, endocrine abnormalities, and reproductive organ abnormalities that can lead to infertility, some systemic diseases can also cause infertility. The most common ones are endocrine and metabolic diseases, such as hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, adrenal cortical dysfunction, diabetes, and obesity. Therefore, it is recommended that you still go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination to rule out the causes.
