How to deal with infertility caused by cold in the body?

Patients with cold-induced infertility often have a close relation to their living environment, lifestyle, and dietary habits. Keeping feet in warm water for about 10 to 30 minutes can effectively improve blood circulation and metabolism, promoting better blood flow and removing blockages in channels and collaterals, which can effectively alleviate cold constitution. Additionally, practices like scraping therapy and acupuncture can remove dampness from the body.

Why does adenomyosis cause infertility?

Under normal circumstances, adenomyosis is mainly due to factors such as the elasticity of muscle fibers in the uterine muscle layer, leading to abnormal enlargement of the uterus. This causes severe complications such as increased menstrual flow and painful menstruation. There are no specific treatment methods. During the onset of adenomyosis, it might affect the normal menstrual cycle of women, leading to increased menstrual flow or irregular menstruation. This can easily interfere with the normal development and ovulation of follicles, therefore significantly impacting normal conception. Once diagnosed, it is also necessary to actively treat the symptoms to avoid delaying normal conception.

Can chronic bacterial vaginitis lead to infertility?

Long-term bacterial vaginitis can lead to infertility. If bacterial vaginitis occurs, a large number of bacteria proliferate in the vagina. When sperm enter, they may quickly die off. Even if they do not die, their quality is greatly reduced. Vaginitis results in a significant increase in vaginal discharge. The secretions contain a large number of white blood cells, which can hinder the survival of sperm, thus potentially causing infertility. Therefore, women must pay attention to personal hygiene. Once the inflammation of bacterial vaginitis becomes severe, it can spread to the uterine cavity and cause more serious diseases such as adnexitis and pelvic inflammatory disease. If not treated promptly, these can lead to infertility. It is important to develop good hygiene habits regularly.

What should an infertile man check?

The definitive diagnosis of male infertility requires determination based on professional examination procedures. Common examinations include the following: First, it is crucial to conduct a medical history interview. The patient should actively cooperate and honestly report their conditions, such as whether they have had mumps, any unsafe sexual behaviors, and what their occupation is. Second, a physical examination, including a general body and reproductive organ examination, is necessary. Special attention should be given to the patient's developmental, nutritional, and mental status, with a focus on the development of the reproductive organs. Third, laboratory tests. The most common is semen analysis. Other tests may be selected based on specific conditions, such as X-ray examinations to determine the location of any blockage in the vas deferens. Techniques such as vasography, epididymography, vas deferens and seminal vesicle radiography, or urethrography can be used. Testicular exams are also performed to assess the condition of the testicles. Additionally, immunological tests, including sperm agglutination and immobilization tests, are used to detect sperm agglutination antibodies or immobilization antibodies in serum or seminal plasma, which help assess the immune status.
