tWhat are the characteristics of infertility

Infertility is a fertility disorder caused by multiple causes and is an adverse event in the reproductive health of couples of childbearing age. If you have a normal sex life, do not take any contraceptive measures, and still fail to conceive successfully for a year, you are said to be

Infertility.


During the initial consultation, couples are strongly encouraged to attend together and go to the medical department to evaluate infertility. This is an excellent opportunity to gain knowledge about pregnancy. It should be noted that the emphasis here is on both spouses, not just

Only women or mainly women.


However, there is an indelible shadow and phenomenon in the concepts and customs of Chinese people. That is, as long as there is no child after marriage, the first person to be questioned, condemned or even abused is often the woman.

Once upon a time, many women could not bear the pressure from their hearts, families, and society, and were full of unwillingness...

In fact, among the causes of infertility, the proportion of both parties is equal. The female factor accounts for one-third, the male factor accounts for one-third, and the common factors of both parties also account for one-third. Searching for the original

In the process of cause, the assessment of fertility is of primary importance, and the principle of assessment should follow the principle of non-invasive or painless examination before considering invasive or surgical treatment.


There is no doubt that men's semen examination is a non-invasive examination. It obtains the richest amount of information and is extremely cost-effective.

Compared with male examinations, even the simplest female gynecological examinations are more painful than semen sampling examinations, not to mention hysterosalpingography, hysteroscopy, and laparoscopy. Examination such as

Invasive inspections are not only painful, but also costly.


Generally, the main factor leading to male infertility is sperm.


Therefore, semen analysis is a core test for assessing male fertility. At least two semen samples should be analyzed at least one month apart.

Men's testes have two functions: producing mature germ cells (sperm) and producing male hormones. Unlike women's ovaries, stem cells in the testis (the source of sperm) can continue to produce

Mature germ cells, and this process continues throughout a man's life.


Fertile men can produce 100 to 200 million sperm per day, of course, this is data from twenty years ago. Regrettably, with the continuous advancement of industrialization and modernization, male talents

Seed production and fertility continue to decline.


Generally speaking, it takes about 90 days for sperm to mature. Any harmful event during these three months will adversely affect the sperm's characteristics.

Due to the long development process, semen analysis results reflect the past three months rather than a specific time point.

An environment slightly below body temperature is a suitable condition for sperm production. Therefore, it is as if God deliberately created humans, hanging the testicles outside the pelvis, like an air conditioner and outdoor unit placed on a house

Outside to facilitate heat dissipation.


Because sperm are extremely afraid of heat, high fever diseases or long-term use of hot tub baths can temporarily affect the quality of sperm.

If the testicles do not descend into the scrotum, but are located in the abdominal cavity or groin-medically called (cryptorchidism), the relatively warm abdominal temperature may cause permanent damage to stem cells

The result may be oligospermia or azospermia.


In addition, high blood pressure, diabetes and nervous system disorders may be associated with erectile dysfunction. Sexually transmitted diseases cause obstruction of the vas deferens and directly affect the transport of sperm. Cigarettes, alcohol, antibiotics

Illegal drugs and environmental toxins can also affect the quality of semen.

The assessment of a woman's infertility should first be divided based on age:

For people younger than 35 years old, if menstruation is irregular, it should be determined whether the ovulation status is normal

For those aged 35 or older, understand the ovarian reserve function, that is, how many eggs are left, and rule out premature ovarian failure; secondly, use hysterosalpingography to understand the patency of the fallopian tubes.

Here, we must solemnly inform infertile couples about the concept of the "fertility window" of pregnancy.

That is, from five days before ovulation to the day of ovulation, the probability of pregnancy increases during this period.

If the quality of the man's semen is normal, the couple should sleep in the same room every day during this time to maximize the chance of pregnancy.

Although the density of sperm decreases with the frequency of sexual intercourse, this decrease is not enough to have a negative impact on conception. At the same time, couples should also be reminded to avoid using oily lubricants because it

It is harmful to sperm.


The egg is like a proud little princess. No matter how the man discriminates against the woman in life or how he upholds the concept that men are superior to women, the egg will not actively "cater to" the sperm. She will only Be patient at the date location

Wait, stand tall, and would rather die.


The survival time after expulsion is about 24 hours, and if the sperm does not wait for appointment and fertilization, it will die.

After the semen enters the vagina, the sperm leaves the semen and enters the fallopian tube cavity through the cervical canal and uterine cavity. While running hard towards the dating site, it also gains energy in the female reproductive tract-penetrating the egg "


The

energy required to encapsulate the film is like marathon runners constantly getting water from the track. This process takes about 7 hours. In this way, normal fertilization can be achieved when the egg is encountered.


Unfortunately, not every batch of sperm is a good athlete and can arrive at the appointment place on time.

Therefore, before the egg dies, the man needs to work harder to enable the sperm to move forward one after another to ensure that one or more sperm arrive at the specified place within the specified time. Otherwise, he can only date again.

is a month later or even longer.


Even if the fertility conditions of both couples are very good, the method is wrong and it will run counter to the contrary and it will be difficult to achieve the goal. This is probably the main factor among the one-third of the infertility factors for both parties.
