Patient's question:
Doctor;I have been living with my boyfriend for a while. Every time we have sex, we don’t use condoms. I also never take birth control pills. We’ve been together for such a long time, but I’ve never gotten pregnant. Doctor, I’m 18 years old, and my boyfriend is 20. I’m not trying to have a baby, I’m just worried—why are we not using any protection but still not getting pregnant? Is there something wrong with us? He always finishes inside me.
Doctor's answer:
There are many causes of infertility, and factors from both men and women can lead to infertility. For example, in men, insufficient sperm count, poor motility, and prolonged semen liquefaction time can cause infertility. In women, vaginal inflammation, cervical inflammation, endocrine disorders, abnormal ovulation function, tumors, endometriosis, blocked fallopian tubes, and autoimmune issues can all lead to infertility.
