Then there are some people who cannot enjoy the so-called family happiness. They are the ones who have been deprived of the right to be parents! That is what is called infertility! So what are the tests that we women should go to the hospital for for infertility examination?

Infertility is divided into infertility and sterility. Adult men and women who live together and have normal sexual life for more than one year without taking any contraceptive measures are said to be infertile. Infertility is caused by female reasons. Infertility is when a woman is able to conceive but fails to have a viable baby due to miscarriage for various reasons. Infertility in a spouse due to male reasons is called male infertility.

Infertility examinations must be comprehensive and one should not simply assume that the problem lies with the wife. Clinically, 20%-25% of women cannot conceive due to male factors. Therefore, when infertile men and women visit the doctor for the first time, it is best to go to the hospital for examination at the same time. After the preliminary examination and judgment, further examination can focus on the woman or the man. This can help avoid many detours, help to make a clear diagnosis as soon as possible, and also save a lot of examination costs.

The items for female infertility examination include:

1. Hysteroscopy: Hysteroscopy can be used to understand the situation in the uterine cavity and to detect lesions that may cause infertility, such as uterine adhesions, submucosal fibroids, polyps, and uterine malformations. During the examination, treatment can also be performed under the direct vision of the hysteroscope.

2. Laparoscopic examination: If you need to further understand the pelvic condition, laparoscopy can be used. Laparoscopic examination can directly observe whether the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries have any lesions or adhesions, and determine whether the fallopian tubes are unobstructed. In about 20% of patients, laparoscopy can reveal lesions that were not diagnosed before surgery.

3. Hysterosalpingography: For women with no inflammation in the reproductive tract, contrast agent is injected into the uterus under B-ultrasound 3-7 days after the menstruation ends to observe the filling of the uterus and fallopian tubes with the contrast agent.

4. Immunological examination: This method can understand whether there are anti-sperm antibodies. In addition to anti-sperm antibody testing, post-coital tests and in vitro sperm penetration tests can also be performed to understand it.

5. Endocrine function measurement: For example, at different times during the menstrual cycle, serum estrogen and progesterone levels are measured to understand the ovarian function; basal metabolic rate is measured to understand thyroid function; adrenal function tests and serum prolactin measurements are performed.
