Patient's question:
I have a friend who has been married for several years and has never had children. Everyone says she has infertility and there's a hint of mockery in their tone. This has made my friend very unhappy, to the point where she doesn't want to talk to anyone anymore. Can her infertility be completely cured?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if a sexually active, cohabiting couple with normal male fertility has not conceived within 2 years without contraception, it can be considered female infertility. There are multiple potential causes, with the most common being tubal blockage. Other conditions such as uterine disorders, ovarian disorders, endocrine diseases, and immune disorders can also lead to infertility. Treatment involves symptomatic measures based on the underlying cause, and in most cases, fertility can be restored.
