Patient's question:
I have been living with my girlfriend for over a year, but we have not had any children yet. Originally, we planned to get married after having a child. Could you please tell me what the infertility examination items are?Doctor's answer:
Hello: Couples of childbearing age living together for 1 year, with normal sexual life, and who have never taken any contraceptive measures but fail to conceive are referred to as infertile. Infertility is divided into primary infertility and secondary infertility. I don't know what factors or causes have led to your infertility? Infertility is not a simple disease but a comprehensive condition caused by over 150 factors or causes.Factors related to the female: issues with the ovaries, tubal diseases, uterine cavity, cervix, vagina, immunological antibodies (over 20 types), and other diseases.
Factors related to the male: abnormal semen (e.g., non-liquefaction, inflammation, acidic or alkaline imbalance), blockages in the spermatic ducts, genital malformations, and systemic diseases. Additionally, there are common factors for both partners: lack of sexual knowledge, immunological factors (antibodies present in both partners), psychological factors or causes (e.g., excessive stress), etc. Only by relying on advanced modern medicine to accurately analyze multiple causes and provide targeted treatment can infertility be cured.
Based on your current situation, you can choose to undergo detailed examinations at a specialized infertility clinic to identify the main factors or causes of infertility. If you have any related questions, feel free to ask. Wishing you good health!
