Fertility specialists help couples conceive when the natural course of conception has been challenging. The key elements that can cause infertility include age, previous surgery to reproductive organs (removal of cysts, testicular torsion or trauma), history of cancer or chemotherapy, history of painful periods or diagnosis of endometriosis.
An evaluation by our fertility specialist can help determine the underlying cause and offer possible treatment options.
When To Seek Treatment
- If you have been trying to conceive:
- for the past 12 months if the female partner is younger than 36 years of age
- for the past 6 months if the female partner is 36 years of age or older.
- If you are 40 or older as quality and quantity of eggs drop, and the risk for miscarriage is greater
- If you are interested in preserving your fertility with egg or embryo freezing
