Özet: Aims: Secondary infertility is a disease where women with a firstborn are not able to have a child again. In this case report, we wanted to observe a whole process of a patient with secondary infertility and investigate the causes and whether there are any solutions for it. Case Report:A 41-year-old female patient presented to the clinic with the complaint of not being able to get pregnant. First thoughts about the patient were focused on infertility however, she had a child before. Therefore, further investigations were needed. After the investigations, she was diagnosed with secondary infertility because no rational reasons were able to clarify her disease. Conclusion: Nowadays, secondary infertility is still a major health problem and no medications or treatments are enough to resolve this problem. The most common theory is the H-Y antigen hypothesis, but still, there is not enough evidence for this theory to be proven.
