Patient's question:
Hello, I had a medication abortion two years ago. After that, I haven't been able to get pregnant. I have had tubal hydrotubation, and it showed that the tubes are open. Could you please tell me what could be the reason why I haven't been able to get pregnant again?First follow-up question: Hello, what kind of tests should I do to get a definitive diagnosis?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, cohabitation for a year without contraception and without pregnancy is considered infertility. For more than half a year, you don't need to rush to arrange intercourse during the ovulation period to increase the chances of pregnancy. A woman's ovulation date is generally about 14 days before the next menstrual period. Starting from the first day of the next menstrual period, count backward 14 days or subtract 14 days to find the ovulation day. The ovulation day plus the 5 days before it and the 4 days after it together constitute the ovulation period. If the menstrual cycle is not very accurate, you can go to the hospital for an ultrasound to detect the exact ovulation day. You can start testing from the ninth day of the menstrual cycle to increase the chances of pregnancy. I hope my answer is helpful to you. Wishing you early parenthood.
