Patient's question:
I am 36 years old and got married in June this year, but have not been able to conceive in the past few months. I have had medical check-ups at the hospital and confirmed that I am ovulating, but for some reason, I still haven't been able to get pregnant. Can I get pregnant at my age?Doctor's answer:
Those who can bear children, of course, older women, should first undergo pre-pregnancy examinations. This is also considered from the perspective of maintaining their own health, ensuring healthy and optimal reproduction, and postpartum recovery. It is recommended that you first undergo various examinations such as endocrine, ovary, eggs, uterus, immunity, and sperm from the male side. These examinations also have time requirements, and performing them at a reasonable time yields more accurate results and higher clinical reference value. Generally, sex hormone tests are conducted on the second or third day of the menstrual cycle, and routine and ovulation monitoring tests are performed around the tenth day. The male partner should abstain from sexual activity for 5-7 days before the examination.
