Infertility treatment

Infertility means not conceiving after a reasonable period of regular, unprotected intercourse, or having a known condition that makes conception less likely. Care starts with listening to both partners’ histories and choosing tests that explain what may be happening.

Female infertility

Female factors may include ovulation problems, tubal blockage, uterine or endometrial conditions, diminished ovarian reserve, or conditions such as PCOS and endometriosis. Not every irregular cycle means infertility, but persistent difficulty conceiving should be reviewed.

Male infertility

Male infertility may involve sperm count, movement, shape, hormonal issues, varicocele, or past illness. A semen analysis is a standard early test.

Combined and unexplained infertility

Sometimes both partners have contributing factors. In other cases, tests are broadly normal and infertility is described as unexplained. Treatment is still possible; the plan depends on age, duration of trying, and your preferences.

Fertility evaluation and diagnostic tests

Evaluation is tailored. Common steps may include:

  • Medical history and examination
  • Ultrasound and ovarian reserve tests when indicated
  • Hormone blood tests
  • Semen analysis
  • Tests of the uterus or fallopian tubes when needed

Treatment options

Options may include timing advice, ovulation induction, intrauterine insemination (IUI) in selected cases, IVF, or ICSI. Donor pathways and fertility preservation are discussed only when clinically relevant.

Frequently asked questions

Should both partners be evaluated?

Usually yes. Male and female factors are both common, and evaluating only one partner can delay useful information.

Is IVF always the first step?

No. Many people start with evaluation and, if appropriate, simpler measures. IVF is considered when it is a suitable option for your situation.
