Patient's question:
I already have a 18-year-old son, and I still want to have a baby. However, the uterine fibroid surgery 3 years ago damaged the uterine wall, and I haven't had my period for almost 2 years. Doctor, is it possible for me to get pregnant, or is artificial insemination a possible option?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, your endometrium is damaged. If the endometrium is abnormal, even if there is a possibility of pregnancy, the fertilized egg cannot implant and delivery cannot occur. Moreover, you have not had a menstrual period for two years, which is highly likely to indicate menopause, meaning you are no longer ovulating and thus cannot conceive. Therefore, you need to have a thorough examination first to rule out menopause, and then assess how well your uterine wall can support pregnancy. Only if both conditions are met is there a possibility of delivery.
