Patient's question:
Female, 23 years old. I had two medication-induced miscarriages within half a year two years ago. After the second miscarriage last year, I developed acute pelvic inflammatory disease, which was later cured. During the ultrasound examination at that time, it was said that my endometrium was a bit thick (it was something like 1.0 cm). I would like to ask what effect does a thick endometrium have on pregnancy? Also, will having had acute pelvic inflammatory disease affect my ability to get pregnant?Doctor's answer:
Normal ovulation period endometrial thickness is 8-10mm. Fertilization is a complex physiological process that must meet the following conditions:1. The ovary releases a normal egg
2. Sperm is normal and contains normal sperm
3. The egg and sperm can meet and combine in the fallopian tube to form a zygote
4. The zygote is successfully transported into the uterine cavity
5. The endometrium is fully prepared for the implantation of the zygote.
If any of these steps are abnormal, it can hinder conception. The reasons for infertility may be related to the woman, the man, or both. It is recommended that you visit a specialized hospital for examination. Based on the examination results, under the guidance of a doctor, you should receive targeted treatment before trying to conceive. Wishing you good health!
