Patient's question:
I've been married to my wife for nearly three years, but we haven't been able to have a child. My wife and I have gone to many hospitals for check-ups. Both of us have undergone numerous tests repeatedly. The doctors said there were no major issues, but we've argued quite a bit about this. What could be the problem?Doctor's answer:
Fertilization is a very complex physiological process. It requires the fusion of sperm and egg to form a zygote, which ultimately implants in the uterine cavity. In addition to having normal sperm, eggs, and an appropriate intrauterine environment, it is also an important step in the fertilization process for sperm and eggs to meet and be successfully transported to the uterine cavity. This task is completed by the fallopian tubes. If the fallopian tubes are inflamed, leading to blockage or curvature, it can affect fertility. There are also some patients who are infertile due to immunological factors.
