What tests are needed if you have been infertile for a year?

Patient's question:

Detailed medical history and consultation purpose: Three years ago, I had an induced abortion. Since then, I have experienced varying degrees of metrorrhagia during menstruation. Over the past year, I had unprotected intercourse without any contraception, but I have remained infertile. I seriously suspect that I might have secondary infertility. I hope the expert can advise me.
First follow-up question: I have undergone an ultrasound and gynecological examination before. The only issue found was retroverted uterus, with no other problems. I would like to ask, what other tests do I need to undergo? Thank you.

Doctor's answer:

Fertility refers to the inability of a couple of reproductive age who live together for a year, have normal sexual life, and have not taken any contraceptive measures to conceive. The essential conditions for pregnancy are: 1. Normal ovarian function, releasing normal eggs. 2. Normal sperm and semen from the male. 3. Sperm and egg can combine in the fallopian tubes, and the fertilized egg can be normally transported into the uterine cavity. 4. The endometrium is fully prepared, suitable for the development of the fertilized egg. If any of these links are abnormal, it can lead to infertility. It is recommended that both partners go to a formal hospital for examination and treatment.
