FERTILITY EVALUATION

Understanding and Enhancing Your Reproductive Health

Fertility evaluation is a comprehensive assessment of reproductive health designed to identify potential factors affecting fertility and help individuals or couples achieve their family planning goals. At Navjeevan Hospital, we offer advanced fertility evaluation services that encompass medical assessments, diagnostic tests, consultations, and personalized treatment plans to address fertility concerns and optimize reproductive outcomes.

Understanding Fertility Evaluation:

Fertility evaluation is a crucial step for individuals or couples experiencing challenges in conceiving naturally. The process involves a series of medical examinations, tests, and consultations with fertility specialists to assess various aspects of reproductive health, identify potential barriers to fertility, and develop tailored strategies for conception.

Signs and Indications for Fertility Evaluation:

Difficulty Conceiving: Couples who have been actively trying to conceive for at least 12 months (or 6 months for women over 35) without success may benefit from a fertility evaluation to identify underlying causes and potential solutions.
Recurrent Miscarriages: Individuals or couples experiencing recurrent miscarriages (two or more consecutive pregnancy losses) may undergo fertility evaluation to investigate potential factors contributing to pregnancy loss and explore preventive measures.
Irregular Menstrual Cycles: Women with irregular menstrual cycles, absent periods (amenorrhea), or hormonal imbalances may undergo fertility assessment to determine ovulatory function, hormone levels, and potential ovulation disorders.
Medical History: Individuals with a history of reproductive health issues, pelvic infections, endometriosis, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), or other gynecological conditions may undergo fertility evaluation to assess their impact on fertility and plan appropriate interventions.

Components of Fertility Evaluation at Navjeevan Hospital:

Medical History Review: The evaluation begins with a thorough review of medical history, including past pregnancies, menstrual cycles, contraceptive use, surgeries, infections, lifestyle factors, and family medical history related to fertility.
Physical Examination: A comprehensive physical examination assesses overall health, reproductive organs (uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes), pelvic health, and signs of potential fertility issues.
Hormonal Testing: Blood tests may be performed to evaluate hormone levels, including follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), estradiol, progesterone, thyroid hormones, and other markers related to ovarian function, ovulation, and hormonal balance.
Ovulatory Assessment: Techniques such as basal body temperature charting, ovulation predictor kits, ultrasound monitoring, and hormonal assessments may be used to evaluate ovulatory function and timing of ovulation.
Semen Analysis: For male partners, semen analysis is conducted to assess sperm count, motility, morphology, and overall sperm health, providing insights into male fertility potential and contributing factors.
Imaging Studies: Transvaginal ultrasound, hysterosalpingography (HSG), sonohysterography, and other imaging tests may be recommended to evaluate the uterus, fallopian tubes, and pelvic structures for abnormalities, fibroids, polyps, or tubal blockages.
Genetic Testing: In some cases, genetic testing or chromosomal analysis may be indicated to assess genetic factors impacting fertility, identify genetic disorders, or screen for potential hereditary conditions.
Specialized Assessments: Additional assessments, such as endometrial biopsy, immune system evaluations, ovarian reserve testing (e.g., AMH levels), and infectious disease screenings, may be included based on individualized needs and suspected fertility issues.
