A thorough evaluation involving medical history, physical exams, and diagnostic tests to identify causes of infertility in both partners. This helps tailor personalized treatment plans to improve chances of conception
Medical treatment using fertility drugs to stimulate the ovaries to release eggs regularly, especially helpful for women with irregular or absent ovulation. It is often combined with timed intercourse or intrauterine insemination to enhance pregnancy chances
Minimally invasive surgical procedures used to diagnose and treat conditions like endometriosis, fibroids, polyps, and adhesions that may impair fertility. These surgeries help restore normal reproductive anatomy and improve fertility outcomes
Comprehensive assessment including semen analysis, hormone testing, and sometimes genetic screening to identify issues affecting sperm quality, quantity, or function. Advanced techniques like sperm DNA fragmentation tests and micro-TESE may be used for diagnosis and treatment planning
In vitro fertilization (IVF) involves fertilizing eggs with sperm in a lab, while intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) injects a single sperm directly into an egg, often used for severe male infertility. The resulting embryos are cultured and then transferred to the uterus to achieve pregnancy
A procedure where previously frozen embryos from an IVF cycle are thawed and transferred into the uterus to establish pregnancy. This allows multiple attempts at pregnancy without undergoing full ovarian stimulation again
