Patient's question:
Hello: What are the reasons why women cannot get pregnant? We have been married for a long time and have not been using contraception, but why can't we get pregnant?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if you are not using contraception for 6 months to 1 year and still unable to conceive, you should get checked. For the male: Abstain from sex for 3 to 5 days, and have a routine semen analysis. For the female: On day 3 to 5 of her menstrual period, have an endocrine test using electrochemical luminescence; on day 3 to 5 after her period ends, have a vaginal examination, dynamic digital hysterosalpingography, and 4D vaginal ultrasound. Generally, this should be enough to diagnose the issue. If the cause still cannot be found, further examination with an electronic hysteroscope or laparoscope may be needed.
