Patient's question:
After a miscarriage, diagnosed with immunological infertility.Doctor's answer:
1. When the female reproductive tract is damaged, sexual intercourse can easily lead to infertility: Most patients with immunological infertility have been detected with anti-sperm antibodies in their bodies, often suffering from reproductive tract inflammation. The female reproductive tract and uterine mucosa have immune functions. When the reproductive tract becomes inflamed or damaged, sperm entering the tract are perceived as the "number one enemy," leading to the production of anti-sperm antibodies and an increased risk of immunological infertility. Experts at the hospital point out that sexual intercourse during menstruation, when the reproductive tract is inflamed or damaged; prolonged sexual activity causing mucosal damage; and promiscuous sexual relationships can all lead to immunological infertility.2. Immunological infertility accounts for infertility: If a couple of childbearing age maintains normal sexual activity for two years after marriage without using contraception and remains childless, they may suffer from infertility. Immunological infertility accounts for 20% of infertility cases, with anti-sperm antibodies being the most common type (accounting for about 60%). The incidence rates of anti-endometrial antibodies, anti-cardiolipin antibodies, and anti-ovarian antibodies are also on the rise.
