Patient's question:
Medical Description: Three years ago, I had a cesarean section, and now I still want to have another baby. A year later, I had an IUD inserted, and after removing it in March this year, my menstruation was quite normal. On May 19th, I had my period, which lasted until May 23rd. We haven't been together since then. On the 8th, I noticed that my vaginal discharge was sticky and stringy, so I had sex for three consecutive days. However, it didn't work out in the end.Past Medical History and Treatment: I had an ultrasound once, and there were no issues.
Help Needed: I want to ask if I need to go to the hospital for a check-up.
Doctor's answer:
Hello, a normal woman typically has one menstrual period per month and ovulates once. If she does not have intercourse during the ovulation period but has intercourse at other times, she will not get pregnant. Therefore, not getting pregnant is perfectly normal.You can start using ovulation test strips from the 8th to 13th day of your menstrual period to check for normal ovulation, and then have intercourse. After intercourse, elevate your hips to prevent semen leakage, which can increase the chances of conception.
Excessive anxiety and stress can also be detrimental to pregnancy. It is best for you and your partner to undergo simultaneous examinations. The doctor will provide targeted testing and treatment based on your specific circumstances.
