Is it difficult to get pregnant with cold uterus or a cold body constitution?
Generally, whether cold uterus (gonghan) and cold body constitution (tihan) make it difficult to conceive depends on the specific condition. If cold uterus or cold body is accompanied by other discomfort symptoms, it may be more difficult to become pregnant. However, if there are no additional discomforts alongside these conditions, their impact on fertility might be minimal. Individuals experiencing any discomfort should seek medical advice promptly. Detailed explanations are as follows:
If symptoms of cold uterus or cold body are severe and accompanied by significant menstrual irregularities, dysmenorrhea, or abnormal endometrial conditions, fertility may be adversely affected. In such cases, the cold uterus may create a uterine environment unsuitable for embryo implantation or may impair egg quality and ovulation cycles, thereby reducing the chances of conception.
If symptoms are mild—for example, occasional lower abdominal coldness or slightly cold limbs—while menstrual cycle and flow remain largely normal, the impact on fertility may be negligible. By improving lifestyle habits, maintaining warmth, and engaging in appropriate exercise, women can regulate their physical condition and enhance the likelihood of successful conception.
It is recommended that women undergo a comprehensive physical examination before pregnancy planning to understand their health status and, under medical guidance, take appropriate调理 measures to optimize fertility.
