The first 5 years were battling infertility
After two years stuck in infertility
She was going to give up
However, it was found in a fortuitous examination
Her infertility problems came to mind
For this reason
She wanted to tell her story to everyone

Infertility
Try to think more about other reasons
Irregular menstruation from an early age
Infertility after marriage
Xiaomei is 32 years old this year, a local primary school teacher in Wenzhou, with good looks and temperament, graduated from graduate school 7 years ago, and formed a family with her boyfriend who has been in love for a long time.
"When I was in love, I told his boyfriend at the time that my menstruation was very irregular, and it might be a little difficult to have children at that time, but my husband said it was okay, it was a big deal not to have children." 」 It turned out that Xiaomei did not menstruate much since the third year of junior high school, and the third year of junior high school was busy with the middle school entrance examination, so she did not take it seriously. But in the days that followed, her "great aunt" was still very willful, often running away for several months in a row, and the diagnosis of Chinese medicine said that qi and blood were deficient, and it was necessary to eat Chinese medicine to replenish qi and blood.
Chinese medicine to eat for more than two years, "big aunt" is still disobedient, Xiaomei mother will take Xiaomei to see Western medicine, B ultrasound shows that Xiaomei's uterus is smaller than normal peers, in addition to this, the local doctor suggested using artificial cycle drugs to make Xiaomei's "big aunt" visit every month, but the artificial cycle of hormone drugs stopped, "big aunt" on leave.
Chinese and Western medicine can not be cured, Xiaomei is "tired", so she goes with it, because except for the "big aunt" who does not come, her body has no other abnormalities.
Until Xiaomei got married for a year and intentionally prepared for pregnancy without results, she realized that she should not hold the fluke psychology of "the big aunt may not be able to get pregnant irregularly", and once again walked into the hospital to do the artificial cycle, but year after year, the good news has not come.
"We spent 5 years trying to conceive, and the tests that the couple should have done were also done, and there was no big problem, but they just couldn't get pregnant." Xiaomei's lover is very distressed to see Xiaomei who wants a baby and suggests that she go directly to IVF to try.
"Parallel bars!" In the sixth year of marriage, Xiaomei finally saw the appearance of a double bar pregnancy test stick, which meant that she became pregnant through test tube technology, and as a result, in the third week of pregnancy, biochemical pregnancy is that the fertilized egg did not successfully implant into the uterus and was excreted in the form of "blood".
Once again, biochemical! The second test tube still failed, and the fertility experts suggested that they slow down and try again with a better recovery.
"We don't want children anymore, shall we?" Xiaomei's lover was very distressed to see that his wife had suffered so much in order to have children in recent years, and he told Xiaomei that they could live happily without children, and Xiaomei also decided to give up being a mother.
Inexplicable tinnitus
But unexpectedly found the root cause
After giving up being a mother, Xiaomei suddenly felt that life was much easier, poured more time and energy into her students, and fought harder for her career.
However, not long ago, Xiaomei had frequent tinnitus symptoms in her left ear, especially in the dead of night, as if her heartbeat was in her ears, at first she thought that she was too tired at work, but she did not get better after taking a day off, and Xiaomei walked into the hospital.
"MR suggests pituitary fossa placeholder." Wenzhou local hospital suggested that Xiaomei go to the higher hospital for further examination and diagnosis, for this reason Xiaomei found the pituitary tumor specialist clinic of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine, after further examination, Pan Xinfa deputy chief physician found the cause of Xiaomei's infertility and menstrual irregularities - a tumor in the brain, Xiaomei's ear has tinnitus, it is likely to compress some nerves.
(Xiaomei's craniopharyngioma)
This tumor is a craniopharyngioma, there are two important structures at the bottom of the normal human skull - the central hypothalamus of human activity and the pituitary gland that secretes various hormones, and the craniopharyngioma is mainly grown in the hypothalamus - pituitary gland area, although this tumor is benign, but our "head" is inextricably, in a limited space, the indigenous people are next to each other in an orderly manner to carry out various production work, there is no extra space for craniopharyngioma to survive, its appearance must be to invade other "aborigines", Xiaomei's craniopharyngioma is 2.3 cm large, compressing the pituitary gland, the pituitary gland is the most complex and important endocrine gland in the body, once the pituitary gland is violated and oppressed, Xiaomei's hormones may be chaotic, which is the reason for Xiaomei's long-term menstrual irregularities, hormone levels are not normal and can not have normal fertility.
Deputy Chief Physician Pan Xinfa performed a transnasal endoscopic craniopharyngioma resection for her, the operation was very successful, and the recovery was good after the small art, and the follow-up endocrine treatment was likely to be a mother smoothly.
Infertility can not find a cause to pay attention to
This type of population should pay special attention
Zhan Renya, chief physician of the Department of Neurosurgery, said that women have no obvious inducements for menstrual disorders, menopause, autism, and accompanied by obvious loss of vision, infertility, it should be noted, it is likely that craniopharyngioma is doing harm, you can do skull MR examination to rule out.
Craniopharyngiomas is a congenital tumor of unknown and complex origin. The best groups are children under 15 years of age, followed by 20-25 years old and 60-65 years old. If the child is obese, short in height, the development of secondary sexual characteristics is slow, or even not developing, it should be examined in a regular hospital in time.
