Patient's question:
Married for three years, no contraceptive measures have been taken, but still no pregnancy. Which tests do both parties need to undergo?Doctor's answer:
Hello: Infertility is defined as the inability of a sexually active couple of childbearing age to conceive after one year of trying, without using any form of contraception. Infertility is classified into two types: primary infertility and secondary infertility. I wonder 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: Ovarian issues, tubal diseases, uterine cavity, cervical issues, vaginal problems, immunological antibodies (over 20 types), and other diseases.
Factors related to the male: Abnormal semen (e.g., nonliquefaction, inflammation, acidic or alkaline pH), blocked reproductive 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).
It is recommended that both you and your partner visit a specialized hospital for further examination to identify the underlying cause and receive targeted treatment. Wishing you good health!
