Fertility Assessment is a crucial step toward understanding and addressing your challenges on the path to parenthood. Our comprehensive assessment aims to uncover the reasons behind conception difficulties and pave the way for personalized fertility solutions. Here’s a glimpse into what our Fertility Assessment entails:
1
Medical History Review
Upon registration, our dedicated team of well-trained nurses will guide you through a thorough medical history review. Questions will cover aspects such as your medical history, lifestyle, reproductive experiences, family history of birth defects, and sexual history. Following this, our nurse will provide insights into infertility, available treatments, and the state-of-the-art technologies offered at our center.
2
Semen Analysis
For male patients, a critical step involves a comprehensive sperm analysis test. This assesses sperm health, determining factors like sperm count, morphology, and motility. The results, available within two hours, guide our specialists in understanding the male reproductive health. Patients are advised to abstain from any sperm release for three to four days before the appointment.
3
Abdominal and Pelvic Ultrasound Scan
An abdominal ultrasound offers an overview of pelvic organs, followed by a transvaginal ultrasound for a closer view of the uterine lining. This detailed examination helps identify potential issues such as scarring, fibroids, or other factors affecting conception. Additional evaluations like Hysterosalpingogram (HSG), Hysteroscopy, or Laparoscopy may be recommended based on individual conditions.
4
Blood Tests
When necessary, blood tests may be ordered to measure hormone levels, including thyroid, prolactin, FSH, LH, AMH, and testosterone for females. Male patients undergo blood tests for male reproductive hormones. Routine tests for full blood count, liver and kidney function, HIV I & II, and sexually transmitted diseases are conducted for those on the IVF journey.
5
Consultation
In your first meeting with the doctor, expect a detailed discussion about your medical history, expectations, and an opportunity to ask any questions you’ve prepared. Based on assessment reports, the doctor will guide you through suitable treatment options, weighing the pros and cons, risks, and success rates for each.
Your fertility journey is unique, and our Fertility Assessment is tailored to provide insights that lead to informed decisions for your path ahead.
