Patient's question:
I can't be pregnant for long anymore, and I usually have abnormal hormones. What are the causes of endocrine disorders leading to infertility?Doctor's answer:
1. Ovulation Disorders: Normal ovulation in women is controlled by many hormones, so ovulation disorders are also the most common type of infertility caused by endocrine disorders.2. Immunological Infertility: A portion of immunological infertility is caused by endocrine disorders. Immunological infertility is often due to endocrine dysfunction and abnormal secretion.
3. Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): It is characterized by irregular menstruation, anovulation, infertility, and bilateral ovarian enlargement with polycystic changes.
4. Hyperprolactinemia: Male infertility caused by abnormally high prolactin secretion includes galactorrhea and luteal phase defect.
