When getting pregnant doesn’t go as planned, a detailed evaluation can help uncover the reason. This may include a health history review, hormone testing, imaging, or a semen analysis for the partner. The goal is to bring clarity and provide a path forward that fits your personal goals and timing.

Before you try to conceive, preconception counseling helps you prepare. It covers your medical history, lifestyle factors, and any risks, offering guidance to support a healthy start to your fertility journey.

Having more than one miscarriage can feel overwhelming. Evaluation includes a review of your medical history, testing for genetic or hormonal factors, and assessing the uterus. Even without a clear cause, ongoing care and monitoring can support safer, more confident future pregnancies.

PCOS is a common reason for infertility, often linked to irregular ovulation. Diagnosis may include hormone testing and imaging of the ovaries. Treatment can help manage symptoms, regulate cycles, and support ovulation. With the right care, many people with PCOS are able to conceive successfully.

Understanding your menstrual cycle helps time fertility treatments or conceive more effectively. We track ovulation, hormone shifts, and uterine development using blood work and ultrasounds. This gives insight into how your body is functioning and helps improve timing for conception.

Infertility testing identifies potential hormonal, physical, or structural barriers to conception. This may include blood tests, ultrasounds, and sometimes genetic or partner testing, all aimed at finding clear, evidence-based answers.

If ovulation isn’t happening as it should, certain medications can help stimulate it. This may involve pills or hormone injections that encourage egg growth. With careful monitoring, this approach offers a safe and effective first step for those with irregular or absent ovulation.

IUI is a fertility procedure that places prepared sperm directly into the uterus during ovulation. It’s often used for unexplained infertility, mild male-factor issues, or cervical challenges. This approach is less invasive than IVF, though success depends on several personal health factors.

Genetic screening can detect inherited conditions or chromosomal issues that may affect fertility or lead to miscarriage. Testing may include blood or saliva samples, or embryo screening during IVF. These results help inform next steps and build confidence in your care plan.

If conditions like fibroids, polyps, or blocked tubes are suspected, surgery may be part of your care plan. Minimally invasive procedures can diagnose and treat these issues when needed to support fertility.

When donor sperm, donor eggs, or a gestational carrier is part of your journey, thoughtful support matters. This process blends medical care with emotional, legal, and ethical guidance. Your provider will help you navigate every step while keeping your values and goals at the forefront.

My husband and I truly appreciate the time and care from Dr. Persch. She was incredibly calm, concerned, and thorough. She allowed time for us to talk about our loss, truly listened to our perspective, and gave us a solid plan of care moving forward. We were absolutely impressed when she walked in the room and was already well versed in our story and our history. She knew about our previous deliveries, knew about our loss already, and was able to incorporate our history into the plan moving forward.

Infertility and Insemination FAQs

When should someone consider fertility testing?

If you’ve been trying to get pregnant for a year (or six months if over 35) without success, it’s a good idea to consider a fertility evaluation.

Yes. High stress, poor sleep, nutrition, smoking, or extreme exercise can all impact fertility. Making small, supportive lifestyle changes can sometimes improve outcomes.

Yes. Irregular cycles can make it harder to predict ovulation and may indicate underlying hormonal or ovulatory issues that could affect conception.

Is infertility always caused by a medical condition?

Not always. Sometimes, lifestyle factors, age, stress, or timing may contribute. That’s why a full evaluation looks at a wide range of possible causes.

Most fertility treatments involve mild discomfort, such as blood draws or ultrasounds. Some procedures, like egg retrieval or IUI, may cause brief cramping but are generally well tolerated.

First steps often include lab testing, ultrasound exams, and ovulation tracking. Medications to stimulate ovulation may be introduced based on the results.
