[Ovulation Disorders] If you’re having trouble conceiving even when timing intercourse to coincide with ovulation, you should first check for ovulation disorders

  • Key points
  • Ulsan When consulting about ovulation disorders, the most important factor is not whether you “have your period,” but whether “ovulation occurs regularly.”
  • If your menstrual cycle is getting longer, you’re having trouble getting pregnant even when timing intercourse around ovulation, or your basal body temperature and ovulation test results are inconsistent, you should check for ovulation disorders.
  • Polycystic ovary syndrome, diminished ovarian reserve, thyroid and prolactin abnormalities, weight fluctuations, lack of sleep, and stress may all play a role.

[Digestive System] If You Experience Recurring Nausea and Gagging, Check Your Autonomic Nervous System as Well

  • Repeated feelings of nausea and retching do not necessarily indicate an autonomic nervous system disorder.
  • Causes vary widely and may include gastroenteritis, reflux esophagitis, medication side effects, migraines, pregnancy, and ear disorders. If you experience weight loss, repeated vomiting, vomiting blood, black stools, severe abdominal pain, dehydration, or new neurological symptoms, prompt medical evaluation is essential.
  • Some people experience an upset stomach when they wake up in the morning, feel the urge to retch before important events, and postpone meals because even a small amount of food makes them feel nauseous.

[Endometrial Adhesions] If Your Menstrual Flow Has Decreased and You’re Having Trouble Getting Pregnant, Here’s What to Check First

  • Endometrial adhesions refer to a condition in which the inner walls of the uterus stick together, which can affect the shape of the uterine cavity or the flow of menstrual blood.
  • If your menstrual flow has noticeably decreased or stopped following a D&C after a miscarriage, uterine surgery, or an intrauterine infection, or if you are experiencing recurrent miscarriages or difficulty conceiving, you should consult an OB/GYN to determine whether an evaluation of the uterine cavity is necessary.
  • It can be concerning if your menstrual flow decreases significantly compared to before after a miscarriage or childbirth, or if you experience lower abdominal pain around your expected period but have almost no bleeding.

[Male Infertility] If Your Semen Analysis Results Are Inconsistent, Addressing Male Infertility Is Half the Battle in Preparing for Pregnancy

  • Ulsan When consulting on male infertility, rather than making a judgment based solely on a single semen analysis result, it is important to evaluate sperm concentration, motility, morphology, total motile count, variability between tests, and factors such as sleep patterns, alcohol consumption, smoking, weight, stress, and history of fever.
  • Preparing for pregnancy is not just a woman’s issue; male factors are one of the major causes of delayed conception.
  • If your test results show a temporary fluctuation, rather than getting discouraged right away, it’s best for both partners to review the criteria for retesting, lifestyle factors, and your overall health to determine the best course of action for preparing for pregnancy together.

[Pregnancy in Later Life] Preparing for Pregnancy After Age 35: Consider Both Ovarian Age and the Implantation Environment

  • Ulsan Preparing for a pregnancy later in life is not simply a matter of judging based on age alone.
  • After age 35, factors such as ovarian reserve, the regularity of ovulation, the quality of eggs and sperm, the condition of the endometrium, and lifestyle rhythms—including sleep and stress—can all have an impact.
  • Even if you start preparing for pregnancy later in life, taking the time to calmly assess your current physical condition can help you develop a realistic plan rather than letting vague anxieties take over.

[Low AMH] If Your AMH Is Low, Things to Check When Preparing for Pregnancy

  • The most important principle in pregnancy preparation counseling for low AMH levels in Ulsan is not to make definitive conclusions about the likelihood of a natural pregnancy or the time frame for conception based solely on a single AMH number.
  • AMH is one of the indicators used to estimate the number of remaining follicles in the ovaries and should be interpreted in conjunction with age, menstrual cycle, the number of follicles detected on ultrasound, ovulation status, the fallopian tubes, the uterus, and male factors.
  • If you’re told during a health checkup or infertility test that your AMH level is low, you may start to worry: “Is my ovarian age advanced?” or “Is it over if I can’t get pregnant right away?”
