    History

    • The doctor will ask questions to try to get clues as to the cause of yourinfertility.
    • These questions will be regarding your medical, surgical, gynecological, and obstetric history, as well as some lifestyle questions.
    • A review of records from other fertility doctors that you have seen is also important.

    Physical exam

    • A directed physical exam that may include a pelvic ultrasound should be performed.
    • Ultrasound can help us discover abnormalities with theuterus, fallopian tubes and/or ovaries. We can sometimes see evidence of pelvic scarring, such as when an ovary appears to be stuck to the uterus.
    • We get information regarding the woman’s potential for adequate ovarian stimulation with medications by countingantral follicles.

    Assessment of ovarian reserve

    • This is a very important assessment of a woman’s remaining egg supply
    • It is done with blood testing and ultrasound:Blood -day 3 FSH, LH and estradiol hormone testing and AMH hormone levelsUltrasound – assessment of ovarian volume andantral follicle counts

    Assessment of adequate ovulation
    This can be done in a variety of ways. About 25% of all infertility is caused by an ovulation disorder. One type of ovulation problem, polycystic ovarian syndrome, is effectively treated with medications.
    Semen analysis
    The semen analysis is a very important test and should be done early in the evaluation process. If a severe sperm defect is discovered, the testing on the female partner should be modified, and therapy can be immediately directed to the sperm problem.

    • About 25% of all infertility is caused by asperm defect and 40-50% of infertility cases have a sperm defect as the main cause, or a contributing cause.

    Blood tests
    Depending on the individual couple’s situation, various blood tests on either the female or the male may be needed. Blood tests that might be needed include day 3 follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), estradiol (E2), AMH, prolactin, testosterone (T), progesterone (P4), 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP), thyroxin (T4), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH).
    If there is a history of recurrent miscarriages (2 or more) a lupus anticoagulant (LAC) and anti-cardiolipin antibody (ACL) are often done, as well as other tests.
    Immunological testing has not been proven to have any value in infertility patients without a history of 2 or more miscarriages.
