Why Havent I Been Able to Conceive?
Couples who have not taken contraceptive measures but cannot conceive after marriage should be alert to the possibility of infertility. Infertility can have multiple causes, which may be related to both husband and wife. Common causes of male infertility include poor sperm quality, smoking and drinking, staying up late frequently, masturbation, and other unhealthy habits, which can all lead to decreased sperm quality and make male infertility more likely. What are the reasons for infertility? Let's take a look below.
Firstly, there are many reasons for infertility, which may be due to female infertility or male infertility. There are many factors that can cause female infertility, such as frequent abortions causing irreparable damage to the uterus, immune infertility, or a weak body that cannot produce mature eggs. Male infertility can also have many causes, including poor sperm quality due to excessive masturbation, smoking and drinking, and prolonged sitting. Additionally, male infertility can also be caused by diseases such as asthenospermia. Both husband and wife need to make efforts for pregnancy, and men should also engage in relevant pregnancy preparation work. Choosing to have sex during ovulation can greatly increase the chances of pregnancy after intercourse. Men should also change unhealthy habits to increase the chances of pregnancy. Only by working together can both men and women make pregnancy easier.
Secondly, if a couple has been married for a year and has not conceived, the following tests are clinically recommended: Monitoring ovulation, starting on day 12 of the menstrual cycle and repeating B-ultrasound on days 14 and 16 to assess follicle growth and ovulation. Blood tests for sex hormones, thyroid function, and immune infertility. Routine gynecological examination and cervical smear to assess inflammation that can affect fertility by phagocytosing sperm. In necessary cases, imaging tests of the fallopian tubes may also be required to assess patency.
