| description | The interviewer asks the participant questions about whether the participant or partner has needed medical assistance with having a baby, the type of assistance, and the type of infertility problems. Questions 1-3 are asked of both males and females. The NSFG provides a card of response categories to the respondent. For example, in question 2, an investigator would provide the respondent with a card listing the categories "advice, infertility testing, drugs to improve ovulation," "surgery to correct blocked tubes," "artificial insemination," "treatment for varicocele," and "other types of medical help." A card was also provided in question 3. RTI has removed references of the card from the questions. The male NSFG questions (questions 1-3) have been modified to indicate partner instead of wife. Below are some lay definitions from the Mayo Clinic website that researchers may find helpful in using the toolkit: Uterine fibroids are noncancerous growths of the uterus that often appear during childbearing years. Also called fibromyomas, leiomyomas or myomas, uterine fibroids aren't associated with an increased risk of uterine cancer and almost never develop into cancer. (Mayo Clinic. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/uterine-fibroids/DS00078 accessed February 15, 2010.) Endometriosis is a disorder of the female reproductive system. In endometriosis, the endometrium, which normally lines the uterus, grows in other places as well. Most often, this growth is on the fallopian tubes, ovaries or the tissue lining the pelvis. When endometrial tissue is located elsewhere in your body, it continues to act as it normally would during a menstrual cycle: It thickens, breaks down and bleeds each month. Because there's nowhere for the blood from this displaced tissue to exit your body, it becomes trapped, and surrounding tissue can become irritated. Trapped blood may lead to cysts, scar tissue and adhesions - abnormal tissue that binds organs together. This process can cause pelvic pain, especially during menstruation. Endometriosis also can cause fertility problems. (Mayo Clinic. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/endometriosis/DS00289 accessed February 15, 2010.) The PhenX Working Group recommends this measure should be preceded by "Difficulty in Conceiving" for a more complete assessment of infertility. | ||
