Does psoriasis cause infertility?

Patient's question:

Hello, doctor, I am a psoriasis patient. I have had this condition for 4 years. I finally got it cured last year. This year, I want to have a child, but I haven't been able to conceive. I know someone else who is also a psoriasis patient, and she hasn't been able to get pregnant either! I'm afraid it's due to the factors or causes of psoriasis. Doctor, can psoriasis patients suffer from infertility?

Doctor's answer:

Psoriasis primarily manifests as skin lesions and does not cause damage to internal organs. It also has no effect on infertility. It is recommended that you undergo a check-up to determine the exact cause of infertility, as improper use of medications for psoriasis may lead to infertility.
