Infertility doctors, sometimes, act illogically. A patient whose
burning wish is to have a baby is often subjected to meaningless treatment
procedures. This can take up a lot of time and can possibly cause pregnancy to
be delayed. There are complaints
against the hostility of these procedures towards the patients and that these
processes are capable of wasting their fertile years.
Here are some instances of infertility doctors improperly
treating patients, which result in a decline in the patient’s fertility instead
of a successful pregnancy.
Earlier, for a couple having complaints
of infertility, the woman would be examined for anti-sperm antibodies.
Anti-sperm antibodies were thought to kill the sperm, thus causing
immunological infertility. This condition was treated by prescribing the use of
condoms to the couple during intercourse. This was based on the assumption that
continual exposure to sperm prompted the woman’s body to create anti-sperm
antibodies, so the use of condoms for at least 6 months would shield the immune
system from the foreign antigens present on the sperm. Conjecturing that this
would help reduce the anti-sperm antibody levels in the woman, it was believed
she could conceive immediately after condoms were discontinued. Malpani Fertility Clinic reveals that
it is improbable for anti-sperm antibodies to play a major role in causing
infertility as these are very commonly found in fertile women too. Malpani Fertility Clinic suggests that
it is a waste trying to “treat” these antibodies. Read more at http://blog.drmalpani.com/2012/12/infertility-doctors-and-irrational.html
