Sexually transmitted diseases have a great impact on fertility

　　sexually transmitted diseases What impact does it have on fertility? Whether you are a man or a woman, sexually transmitted diseases definitely have an impact on the reproductive system. However, because the pathogenic bacteria are complex and diverse, the severity of the harm varies and the location is uncertain. However, according to experts, the greatest harm of sexually transmitted diseases to fertility is manifested in the following two aspects.

　　1. cause Ectopic pregnancy

　　After the 1980s, it was called the second generation of sexual transmission disease Mycoplasma and chlamydia infection of the genital tract, if the infection lasts for a long time, has caused the fallopian tube to be deformed. Even if it has been cured (the test is negative), it is difficult for the deformed fallopian tube to transform into a normal fallopian tube on its own. If the fallopian tube disease makes it narrow and incompletely adhered, and contraception is not used, then sperm After fertilization with the egg in the fallopian tube, the divided morula cannot be successfully delivered Uterus In the cavity, and blocked in the deformed and narrow fallopian tube, the embryo will continue to develop there, causing ectopic pregnancy.

　　2. cause Infertility

　　For example, genital mycoplasma and chlamydial infections, which have a high incidence rate among sexually transmitted diseases, are limited to the urethra, vagina, cervix, and not the fallopian tubes, and if the infection is treated correctly within a short period of time, it will not cause any female Fallopian tube obstruction will not affect future marriage and childbirth after cure. However, if the infection lasts for a long time, it will not only cause vaginal and cervical infections, but also lead to pelvic infection. If it remains untreated or treated intermittently and does not heal for a long time, this situation will lead to adhesion and deformation of the female fallopian tube, resulting in fallopian tube atresia, leading to infertility.

　　Getting sexually transmitted diseases is not terrible. What is terrible is that the disease is ignored and medical treatment is avoided, thus delaying the best opportunity to treat sexually transmitted diseases. most male STD patients can be cured as long as they seek medical treatment promptly and generally will not affect a man's reproductive function. However, if it is not treated promptly and regularly, resulting in repeated infections, it can cause prostatitis , epididymitis, vasitis and seminal vesiculitis. Inflammation in these parts will affect the storage, survival and output of sperm, resulting in male infertility.

　　The main mechanisms of infertility are as follows.

　　①Affecting semen quality, urethra and prostate infections can affect sperm motility.

　　②Urethral stricture is a serious complication after sexually transmitted diseases, which often leads to repeated infections of the genitourinary tract and affects fertility, especially when it causes repeated attacks of prostatitis and epididymitis.

　　③Affecting sperm excretion: Prostatitis can cause ejaculation Tube edema and pressure can cause obstruction; epididymitis can cause vas deferens edema, even obstruction and atrophy of adjacent testicular parenchyma. Severe cases may present with oligozoospermia or even azoospermia, leading to infertility.

　　In addition, other sexually transmitted diseases such as gonorrhea, syphilis, and lymphogranuloma venereum will leave sequelae or complications to varying degrees. Therefore, experts from urology hospitals recommend that if you suffer from sexually transmitted diseases, you should go to a regular hospital for formal treatment in time, and treat your sexual partner at the same time to avoid the occurrence of sequelae and complications.

　　STDs that affect male and female fertility

　　Sexually transmitted diseases not only have many adverse effects on the body, but also have worrying adverse effects on eugenics and postnatal care. We know that most patients with STDs often fail to undergo relevant examinations in time due to their appearance. They do not have enough understanding of the dangers of STDs and do not pay enough attention to the importance of early diagnosis and early treatment after contracting STDs. Often, STDs are simply treated or even simply dealt with, which is very dangerous. If you continue to have fun while you are sick and continue to amplify the existing damage, it will lead to repeated infections, serious complications in the reproductive system, and a lot of troubles to the reproductive function. Expert introduction: The main sexually transmitted diseases that affect male and female fertility are gonorrhea, syphilis and non-gonococcal urethritis.

　　In men, gonococcal and chlamydial infections can involve the epididymis, causing inflammatory epididymal swelling and pain. They can also have inflammation of the spermatic cord and vas deferens, causing infertility. Someone examined 34 male gonorrhea patients under the age of 35 and found that 23 of them had epididymitis caused by gonorrhea or chlamydia trachomatis.

　　Female infertility caused by sexually transmitted diseases is more common than male infertility. 8% to 20% of untreated female gonorrhea and non-gonococcal urethritis can spread the infection to the uterus, fallopian tubes and pelvic cavity, causing inflammation and causing infertility or ectopic pregnancy. Infertility or ectopic pregnancy caused by gonorrhea is especially common. Since the fallopian tube mucosa is highly sensitive to gonococci, gonorrhea often invades the fallopian tubes, causing inflammation, adhesion and obstruction, resulting in infertility. Studies on women who have suffered from simple pelvic inflammatory disease have shown that 15% to 20% may suffer from infertility. Repeated episodes will increase the possibility of infertility. There are also surveys and studies that show that the incidence of infertility is directly proportional to the increase in gonorrhea. The more gonorrhea infections, the greater the chance of infertility. Ectopic pregnancy, like infertility, increases with gonorrhea.

　　The impact of syphilis on fertility is mainly manifested in pregnant women suffering from syphilis, which can cause miscarriage, premature birth and stillbirth for more than 4 months. It is generally believed that syphilis infection does not occur in the fetus before 18 weeks of pregnancy. Someone summarized the results of more than 200 fetal autopsies and found that none of the fetuses aborted before 18 weeks were infected with syphilis. However, as the pregnancy months increased, the proportion of fetuses with infection continued to increase, reaching a peak at 8 months. They believed that as the contact time between the fetus and the infected mother increased, the possibility of infection also increased.
