So couples experience a situation where the female partner was once able to conceive but later could not, which can also be considered infertility, specifically secondary infertility.
Just like the first female patient, the second female patient had visited multiple doctors and explained her situation: "My husband and I have been to many hospitals and undergone nurous tests, but the doctors said there were no problems found in our examinations. He even did a ’net’ fluid test (a pun for sen), and the doctors said he did not have any issues in that regard either."
The doctor reviewed the dical records and test results brought by the patient, and they were as the patient described. At this point, the doctors at a major hospital would certainly not imdiately order repeated tests, but instead would recomnd tests that other hospitals had not perford for the patient. Doctor Lee Yuen judged, "In that case, both you and your husband should undergo chromoso testing."
Chromosomal abnormalities account for a significant proportion of infertility in married couples, possibly up to one-third.
"Huh?" The patient was surprised and sowhat confused about why the doctor suspected this as a possible cause in her case.
This leads to another common clinical phenonon. So won have no perception of early natural miscarriages, colloquially considered to be completely carefree. They think they simply cannot conceive and cannot clearly describe their symptoms, unaware whether vaginal bleeding occurred or not, often miscalculating their nstrual cycle, and sotis mistaking it as hemorrhoidal bleeding. Doctors can only deduce based on their own experience. Ninety-nine percent of early miscarriages are due to chromosomal abnormalities.
"What should be done if there is a problem found?" Patients are usually anxious and want to know the consequences from the doctor even before the results are out, for ntal preparation.
"You can try the third-generation in vitro fertilization technology."
It has been over ten years since the first successful in vitro fertilization in the country. Dostic IVF technology has progressed to the third generation, keeping pace with international developnts. The first third-generation case was not at Beidou Third Hospital, but at the Zhongshan dical College First Affiliated in Student Xie’s ho province capital. It shows that while Beidou Third Hospital has the biggest reputation nationally, the fact that neither first nor third-generation cases started there indicates that reproductive technology is flourishing across the country.
The third-generation IVF technology has its distinctions. To put it simply, the first generation addresses infertility caused by factors such as blocked fallopian tubes that prevent the eting of egg and sperm. This cause can typically be diagnosed clearly with ultrasound and other examination thods. The second generation tackles male infertility, such as reduced sperm quality, which can similarly be diagnosed with sen analysis. The third generation addresses hereditary diseases attributed to chromosomal abnormalities in both males and females, requiring chromoso testing. The evolution of the three generations of technology shows that dical developnt is increasingly moving towards molecular levels, edging closer to the realm of the divine. Therefore, obstetrics research is very aningful.
Upon hearing there was a treatnt, the patient was greatly relieved.
Student Geng swiftly proceeded with filling out the test forms. Student Xie assisted in writing the dical record.
Once the electric heating pad was charged, and before the next patient ca in, Xie Wanying placed it in a velour case and set it on the chair where Teacher Li sat, close to their lower back, to keep them warm.
"Thank you." Teacher Li expressed gratitude to the student.
Teacher Li was very amiable and polite. Xie Wanying returned to her seat with a bit of reservation.
The next two patients included one with genuine polycystic ovary syndro, who did not respond to dication and was advised by doctors from other hospitals to co here for IVF.
