What Is Immune Dysfunction?

As we mentioned in previous articles, traditional medicine has an essential part and the majority of the time it’s the first treatment for a few who for any reason can’t conceive after 1 year of unprotected sexual intercourse. The immune system plays a significant role in protecting our body against the forming of free radicals, bacteria, and virus.

Did you know?

But for whatever reasons, sometimes the immune system attacks sperm at the women’s reproductive organs or sperm in the testes in men, resulting in infertility. In this guide, we’ll discuss how immune dysfunction affects fertility in a traditional perspective. The immune system helps to recognize foreign invasion like the forming of free radicals, bacteria, and viruses so as to destroy them.

For some reason immune systems may become abnormal, leading the immune system to attach it’s own body tissues or see the sperm as foreign invasion. Antiphospholipid syndrome is defined as a condition which causes blood flow in the veins or arteries and several other issues. Additionally, it causes abnormal generation of antibody that not just attaches to the body’s invaders, but also it is body cells including sperm in the testes which result in a minimal quality of sperm.

No cure

As of today, there’s still no cure for the above syndrome, but some traditional medications can help control it, thereby decreasing the chance of blood clotting and infertility. Antinuclear antibodies are a particular class of auto antibodies that have the capacity to attack structures in the nucleus of cells rather than performing the standard antibody function.

Since the nucleus of a cell includes genetic material known as DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), ANA (antinuclear antibody) tests can be performed on a patient’s blood sample as part of the diagnostic procedure to detect specific autoimmune diseases brought on by the above. Antithyroid antibodies can be analyzed by diagnosing the patient’s thyroid gland and the thyroid stimulating hormone TSH in the blood sample.

Only hypothyroidism causes auto immune dysfunction. They’re defined as the abnormal performance of antibodies produced by the immune system to act directly against the thyroid gland. It may result from inflammation of the thyroid gland resulting in abnormal production of particular antithyroid antibodies like antithyroglobulin and antimicrosomal which cause miscarriage by assaulting the placental or fetal cells.

Conclusion

Antisperm antibody can be produced by either spouse. It’s defined as a particular class of protein linking themselves to the sperm, causing different cells from the immune system to attack them, resulting in low quality sperm in males and effecting the ability of sperm to fertilize the egg in women.
