Is poor pregnancy qi related to endometriosis? Patients account for more than 40% of the infertile population
Is infertility or difficulty conceiving in women related to endometriosis? Dr. Lin Xinda, the attending physician of the infertility department of Hongqi Maternity and Children’s Hospital, explained that endometriosis is a benign endometrial disease. When a woman’s menstruation comes, the menstrual blood abnormally retrogrades to the uterine wall, pelvic cavity, ovaries, and even Caused by bladder and lungs. In addition, menstrual blood may also migrate to various organs in the body through blood vessels or lymphatic vessels.
Dr. Lin Xinda said that accumulation of old menstrual blood in women’s ovaries may lead to “chocolate cysts”, causing uterine wall hypertrophy and abnormal pain during menstruation. It is also one of the most likely causes of infertility. According to statistics from the Taiwan Health Promotion Administration, endometriosis accounts for about 5% of the overall female population of childbearing age, but accounts for about 15-40% of the female population with infertility.
Is severe menstrual pain a sign of endometriosis? Doctor: “This surgery” allows for quick recovery and early discharge
There were rumors on the Internet that the abnormal pain caused by endometriosis can be relieved by “eating a vegetarian diet”. Dr. Lin Xinda clarified that endometriosis is related to personal constitution and has little to do with whether one is a vegetarian or not. If a woman feels that the pain is more severe during menstruation, she should seek medical attention immediately to obtain appropriate treatment to relieve the pain.
Dr. Lin Xinda further explained that the treatment of endometriosis is divided into two types: drugs and surgery. For mild chronic pelvic pain, medication can be used to treat the symptoms. If the pain cannot be relieved or the endometriosis is more severe, surgery must be performed to cure it. At present, the main surgical treatment method is “laparoscopic minimally invasive surgery”, which has the characteristics of fast recovery, less bleeding, and early discharge (about 3 days).
Dr. Lin Xinda said that a 39-year-old woman once came to the emergency room because of abdominal pain in the middle of the night. After ultrasound examination, it was found that chocolate cysts about 5 cm on each side had grown in the uterine cavity. Therefore, we urge women not to be careless if their dysmenorrhea has become more severe in recent months. They should promptly go to an obstetrics and gynecology department or infertility specialist for ultrasound testing. If necessary, they can also use CA-125 (Ovarian Tumor Index) to confirm the condition.
Is there hope for endometriosis? She had “as many cysts as precious breasts” and still managed to conceive
Is there still a chance of pregnancy if I have endometriosis? Dr. Lin Xinda pointed out that after mild endometriosis is treated with medication, it can help increase the chance of pregnancy in the future. For those with more serious conditions, it is recommended to get pregnant as soon as possible after surgery. The golden fertile period is generally between 6 and 12 months. If you do not get pregnant in time, the risk of recurrence is higher, and you should receive drug treatment for at least six months to reduce the chance of recurrence.
If the patient is unable to conceive for a long time, artificial reproduction intervention is required. Dr. Lin Xinda explained that artificial reproduction is divided into “in vitro fertilization” and “artificial insemination”. Generally speaking, the success rate of in vitro fertilization is higher than that of artificial insemination. It is recommended for those who cannot get pregnant for more than one year, those who are older, and those with severe intrauterine insemination. People with conditions such as fallopian tube edema and obstruction, adenomyosis, and chocolate cysts caused by ectopic cysts can improve their pregnancy success rate through in vitro fertilization.
Dr. Lin Xinda cited a previous case of a female patient: The patient suffered from severe endometriosis. The left and right chocolate cysts grew to about 12-15 centimeters each, and the number of cysts removed reached 500 cc. Finally, the fallopian tubes were removed through surgery, the pelvic cavity was reset, and 7 eggs were successfully retrieved. Finally, a baby girl was born through in vitro fertilization. Therefore, we urge the public to seek medical treatment as soon as possible if they have the idea of conceiving. The higher the chance of successful pregnancy.
This will improve egg quality! Doctor reveals “5 measures” to increase pregnancy rate
In addition to timely medical treatment to improve endometriosis, Dr. Lin Xinda also reminds women who are preparing to become pregnant or preparing for pregnancy to take the following 5 measures to help increase the chance of pregnancy:
Eat a balanced diet. A high-protein, low-irritation diet should be consumed.
Work and rest normally. It is recommended to have a normal daily routine and avoid going to bed after 11pm. In addition, you should quit smoking and drinking during pregnancy preparation to avoid affecting fetal development.
Exercise more. It is recommended to do aerobic exercise for half an hour a day or 4 hours a week, with the heart rate exceeding 110, sweating and slight breathing.
Supplement nutrition. Arginine, DHEA, vitamin D, Q10 and other nutrients can be supplemented appropriately.
Traditional Chinese medicine conditioning. It is recommended that women regulate their bodies through traditional Chinese medicine before preparing for pregnancy or raising eggs, which has a certain effect on improving the success rate of pregnancy and can improve the quality of eggs.
Finally, Dr. Lin Xinda reminded the public that although artificial reproduction technology has made great progress, the success rate will still decrease with age. The best age for artificial reproduction is “the sooner, the better.” Couples experiencing infertility or difficulty in getting pregnant are reminded to seek medical evaluation as soon as possible to grasp the best chance of pregnancy and successfully achieve the goal of childbirth.
