Patient's question:
What tests are needed for the diagnosis of ovary-related infertility?Doctor's answer:
I. Ovarian-Pituitary Function Examination:1. Basal Body Temperature (BBT) Measurement: Place a thermometer under the tongue for 5 minutes in a resting state every morning, and record the temperature in a specially designed chart. On a monthly cycle, normal women's basal body temperature shows a biphasic pattern under the influence of ovarian function. This helps determine the ovulation date, whether ovulation occurs, and whether ovulation dysfunction exists. It is a crucial examination in infertility testing for women.
2. Sex Hormone Testing: Serum LH, FSH, PRL, E2, P, T, T3, T4, etc. This test can provide precise insights into infertility caused by unclear factors or etiology in women.
II. Cervical Mucus Examination: Assess whether ovulation occurs and the status of the corpus luteum.
III. Endometrial Pathological Examination: Determine whether ovulation or corpus luteum function is present. Simultaneously, it can assess the size of the uterine cavity and internal/external uterine lesions, such as tuberculosis or fibroids.
