Infertility Evaluation and Treatment

Struggling to conceive can be an emotional and challenging experience, but you are not alone. Infertility affects 10-15% of couples, and while the causes vary, advances in reproductive medicine have made many treatment options available. An infertility diagnosis can depend on multiple factors, including whether the underlying issue is related to the male partner, female partner, or both.

When Should You Seek a Fertility Consultation?

Couples should consider seeking an infertility evaluation if:

  • You have been trying to conceive for over a year (or six months if the woman is over 35).
  • You have irregular or absent menstrual cycles, which may indicate ovulation issues.
  • You have a history of reproductive health conditions such as PCOS, endometriosis, or uterine fibroids.
  • The male partner has concerns about sperm health, including low sperm count, poor motility, or previous medical conditions affecting fertility.
  • You have had multiple miscarriages and want to understand possible causes.
  • You or your partner have undergone treatments such as chemotherapy that may impact fertility.

What Does an Infertility Evaluation Include?

A comprehensive infertility assessment helps determine the cause of fertility challenges and guides the best course of treatment. This evaluation typically includes:

  • Medical History & Physical Exam – A review of personal and family medical history, menstrual cycles, lifestyle factors, and past pregnancies or miscarriages.
  • Ovulation Testing – Blood tests are performed to check hormone levels, and ultrasound imaging is performed to track ovulation.
  • Semen Analysis – A lab test to assess sperm count, motility, and shape.
  • Imaging & Diagnostic Tests – Procedures such as a hysterosalpingogram (HSG) or saline sonogram to check for blocked fallopian tubes or uterine abnormalities.
  • Genetic Testing – Screening for inherited conditions that may impact fertility or pregnancy outcomes.

Fertility Treatment Options

Once an evaluation identifies potential fertility challenges, personalized treatment plans can be developed. Common fertility treatments include:

  • Ovulation Induction – Medications such as Clomid or Letrozole to regulate ovulation.
  • In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) – A highly effective treatment where eggs are retrieved, fertilized in a lab, and transferred into the uterus.
  • Donor Eggs or Sperm – Recommended for patients facing age-related fertility decline or genetic concerns.
  • Surgical Interventions – Procedures to correct structural abnormalities such as fibroids, endometriosis, or blocked fallopian tubes.
