A family without children is incomplete. After getting married, everyone hopes to have a healthy baby as soon as possible. However, some people have been preparing for pregnancy for a period of time but still cannot conceive. Therefore, they need to go to the hospital for examination to identify the cause of infertility and receive targeted treatment. Pregnancy and childbirth are the responsibility of both husband and wife, and there are requirements for both individuals' physical conditions. There are also many examination items for infertility. So why check chromosomes for infertility?
Why check chromosomes for infertility
Genetic factors also account for a certain proportion of the causes of infertility. Infertility caused by chromosomal abnormalities is not uncommon, and for some infertile patients, chromosome testing is necessary. Chromosome examination is a medical method for analyzing chromosome karyotypes, mainly used to identify diseases such as autosomal disorders, sex chromosome disorders, carriers of chromosomal structural abnormalities, fragile X chromosome syndrome, chromosome breakage syndrome, etc.
How to improve the fertility rate
1. To identify the causes of infertility, couples must first face the reality of years of infertility together and eliminate objective factors such as cryptorchidism, hernia, fallopian tube obstruction, endometriosis, etc. Treating illness with illness, nurturing the next generation together without illness.
2. When it comes to the timing of pregnancy, it is important to know that the husband's sperm is constantly being produced and can be released daily. Compared to the husband, the wife's egg count is much lower. A normal woman only develops and matures one egg per month, and releases about 12 mature eggs per year, giving her about 12 chances of conception. Therefore, accurately grasping the ovulation date and arranging sexual activity is seizing the best opportunity for conception.
3. Reducing work pressure can affect reproductive ability. If both spouses are workaholics or one spouse is a workaholic, it is not conducive to pregnancy. And in order to conceive, one must adjust their body and mind to the best, which is also very beneficial for the child's health.
4. Quitting smoking, drinking, and secondhand smoke can damage fertility for both husband and wife. Research shows that men who smoke have lower sperm count and vitality, and women who smoke every day are also less likely to become pregnant.
There are many reasons for infertility. It is not necessarily due to chromosomal abnormalities, but if there are chromosomal abnormalities, it can lead to infertility or difficulty conceiving. Even if a person with chromosomal abnormalities is able to conceive and give birth, the resulting child will still have congenital defects, indicating that chromosome testing is still necessary. And it's best for both husband and wife to have blood drawn for chromosome testing.
