Patient's question:
I really want to get pregnant and haven't used any contraception for 5 months, but I still haven't conceived. My menstrual cycle is 33 days, and I used to have trouble calculating my ovulation period. In October, I bought ovulation test strips and got a positive result. I had sex several times during those days, but today my period came again, and I failed once more. I don't know what the reason is.I rarely use anything under my buttocks, and after my husband finishes, I immediately go to wash. A lot of semen flows out. A friend told me to place a small pillow under my buttocks and lie there for half an hour before moving around. Is this method likely to help? Thank you.
Doctor's answer:
Hello: Fertilization is a complex physiological process that requires the following conditions:1. The ovary must release normal eggs
2. Sperm must be normal and contain healthy sperm
3. The egg and sperm must meet in the fallopian tube and combine to form a zygote
4. The zygote must be successfully transported into the uterine cavity
5. The endometrium must be fully prepared for the zygote to implant. If any of these steps are abnormal, fertilization can be hindered. The cause of infertility may be related to the woman, the man, or both.
It is recommended that you visit a specialized hospital for examination. Based on the results, you should undergo targeted treatment under the guidance of a doctor before trying to conceive. Wishing you good health!
