Patient's question:
Hello!I and my husband now want a baby. Due to our work schedules, the first two times we got pregnant, we didn’t keep the pregnancies (they were medication-induced abortions). Before that, I had an ultrasound at the hospital, which showed no abnormalities in the ovaries or adnexa, but there was 1.5×3.0 cm of fluid in the pelvis. After that, I took a course of Jinchicken capsules and continued taking them every time I had my period, from mid-September until now. We have not taken any birth control measures, but we still haven’t gotten pregnant. I want to know if I can get pregnant and whether I might have infertility. What other tests do I need to undergo?
Thank you!
Doctor's answer:
Hello, adults of both genders living together for one year, with normal sexual activity for more than one year, without using contraception, and who remain pregnant-free are referred to as infertile. The basic conditions for conception are: the female needs to have normal endocrine function, ovulation, endometrium, and immune function, while the male's semen quality should be good. An abnormality in any of these links can lead to infertility. It is recommended that women avoid sexual intercourse within 3-7 days after their period is clean, and men abstain for 2-7 days. Both partners should go to a regular infertility and subfertility specialty hospital for a detailed examination. Wish you health!
