How can I fix this problem? I get information from the user, for example, email address, but if that address is wrong, I show an error message to the user, and I want the user to redirect to get the input email address again and show to the user please enter the email address again, or in this code, I want to rerun gender method after user enter wrong enter email address but how can I call gender method from email method?
The output is user should type something that ConversationHandler trigger and run the gender method to get the email address again

I want show to user your Email address was wrong! then Please Enter your email: actually, I want to rerun gender method without waiting user input something or trigger ConversationHandler inside the method

I need something like that for another where. Suppose I want to control the user’s state from the database and save steps in the database, so I need to go up and down in conversation, and all thing happens in one method. see this structure

async def register(update: Update, context: ContextTypes.DEFAULT_TYPE) -> int:

if user.user_status == 'start':

    if user.step == 0:
        //Show Accpet rules
        // if it accepet
            //go to step 1
    elif user.step == 1:
        //get name and family
        //goes to step 2
    elif user.step == 2:
        // check name and family
            // if it was correct
                // save in DB
                // get mobile number
            // if it was not correct
                // show error message 
                // back to step 1 and ask again name and family
    elif user.step == 3:
        // check mobile number 
            // if it was correct
                    // save in DB
                    //get email
            // if it was not correct
                    //show error message 
                    // back to step 2 and ask again mobile number
        // get email
        ....
    elif user.step == 4:
        ...
    elif user.step == 5:

        await update.message.reply_text(
                "you successfull register",
                reply_markup=await _reply_keyboard('GoHome'),parse_mode='HTML'
        )

return Register

Update:

I make a real example to show my mind and my problem. user should enter something until ConversationHandler trigger and it’s a big problem try this code:

  2. Modify your email function in the if clause when the user didn’t provide a valid email address. I would suggest

    Your email address was wrong! Please write it again

    With this you can return to the same state in which you were: return EMAIL to enter the function again.

    In case of a successful answer, return ConversationHandler.END
