Patient's question:

What are the factors that cause female infertility?

Doctor's answer:

Guidance: The main factors or causes of female infertility are as follows:
1. Tubal factors: Tubal elongation or stenosis, tubal inflammation leading to lumen occlusion, hydrops, or adhesion, all hinder the movement of sperm, eggs, or fertilized eggs.
2. Ovarian factors: Factors affecting follicular development or oocyte release, such as incomplete ovarian development, luteal dysfunction, premature ovarian failure, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), or ovarian tumors, can cause infertility.
3. Congenital or acquired abnormalities of the reproductive organs, or diseases of the reproductive organs, obstructing the patency and function of the reproductive tract from the vulva to the fallopian tubes, hindering the meeting of sperm and eggs, leading to infertility.
4. Immunological factors: Refers to the presence of anti-sperm antibodies in the female reproductive tract or serum, causing sperm agglutination, loss of vitality, or death, resulting in infertility or subfertility.
5. Infertility caused by sexual dysfunction, lack of sexual knowledge, systemic diseases, or unknown factors accounts for about one-third of the causes of infertility.
