Patient's question:
[Condition Description: After marriage, I have taken birth control pills four or five times. Now married for three years, I have not been able to get pregnant since stopping the medication. My husband has also been tested and found to have issues, but he has taken forty doses of traditional Chinese medicine and has recovered. Previous Treatment and Effects: My husband's sperm quality reached 80%. What Help Do You Want: I want a comprehensive check-up.Doctor's answer:
The first examination for the male is a routine semen analysis. Since male semen tests are simple, convenient, non-invasive, and low-cost, infertility examinations first focus on the male. If the male's semen analysis is normal, the cause can then be sought from the female.For female infertility testing, the doctor will first inquire about the medical history, including: age, menstrual history, marital and reproductive history, past medical history, surgical history, and pregnancy history. General physical examinations and gynecological examinations will also be conducted, so it is recommended to avoid the menstrual period during the first visit. Additionally, family history, exposure to radiation and toxic substances, as well as smoking and alcohol habits, need to be understood.
