Is the chance of getting pregnant high when having sex during hormonal imbalance?
Disease description:
After getting married, I would like to have a child right away, but my health is not very good, and I have a fairly serious case of endocrine disorder. I would like to ask, in the case of an endocrine disorder, is the chance of getting pregnant through sexual intercourse still high?

Endocrine disorders may affect a woman's fertility, with the specific chances of pregnancy depending on the type and severity of the imbalance. Common endocrine issues, such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), thyroid dysfunction, or luteal phase defect, can lead to ovulatory disorders, irregular menstruation, or compromised endometrial health, all of which may reduce the success rate of natural conception.
However, even with endocrine imbalances, if ovulation still occurs, pregnancy remains theoretically possible. Irregular ovulation may make it more difficult to predict the ovulation period, but it does not completely eliminate the chance of conception. In some cases, mild endocrine imbalances may have minimal impact on fertility.
It is recommended to consult a doctor for a comprehensive evaluation before attempting pregnancy, especially in the presence of known endocrine disorders.
