Patient's question:
I've been married for over a year now, and during this time, I've never taken any contraceptive measures. However, I haven't been able to get pregnant. Later, I had an ultrasound at the hospital, and the doctor informed me that it was due to blocked fallopian tubes, which caused infertility. Is my infertility something that will always prevent me from having children?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if a sexually active, cohabiting couple with normal sexual life and no contraception has not become pregnant within 2 years while the male's fertility is normal, it can be considered as female infertility. There are multiple reasons for this, with the most common being fallopian tube blockage. Other conditions such as uterine disorders, ovarian disorders, endocrine diseases, and immune disorders can also lead to infertility. Treatment is based on the underlying cause and involves symptomatic measures, and in most cases, fertility can be restored.
