Overview

Overview

Most journeys start here. A fertility assessment looks at the main things that affect getting pregnant: egg supply, ovulation, the uterus and tubes, and sperm. We test both partners when there are two, because sperm plays a part in many cases.

You get your results at a sit-down visit, not in a portal message. Your doctor explains what each one means, what it does not mean, and which options make sense next. Sometimes the answer is simply to keep trying with better timing.

Who it is for

Often a good fit when

  • You are under 35 and have been trying for a year
  • You are 35 or older and have been trying for six months
  • Your cycles are irregular or very painful
  • You want a baseline before deciding on egg freezing
  • You want to know where you stand, with no pressure to start treatment

Step by step

What to expect, in order

  1. Week 1

    First consult

    In person or by video. Your doctor reviews your history and orders the right tests, nothing extra.

  2. Day 2 to 4 of your cycle

    Bloodwork and ultrasound

    A blood draw for hormones and egg supply (AMH), plus an ultrasound to count resting follicles. About 30 minutes.

  3. Days 6 to 11

    Tube check

    A short X-ray or saline ultrasound shows whether the tubes are open and the uterus is a normal shape.

  4. Any time

    Semen analysis

    A private, simple sample at our lab or from home within an hour's drive. Results in about three days.

  5. About 3 weeks in

    Results visit

    Your doctor walks through every result and gives you a written plan, with costs for each option.

Included in your plan

  • A first consult of about an hour with a reproductive endocrinologist
  • A nurse coordinator who schedules every test around your cycle
  • Testing for both partners, when there are two
  • A results visit and a written plan you can take home
  • A cost sheet for every next step before you choose one

Questions

People often ask us

Does testing hurt?

Most tests feel like a normal checkup. The tube check can cause cramping for a few minutes. We suggest a pain reliever beforehand and walk you through each step.

Do both partners need testing?

Yes, when there are two. It saves time and money to look at both sides at once instead of one after the other.

What if all my results are normal?

That happens often, and it is useful to know. Your doctor will talk through timed cycles, IUI, or simply more time, depending on your age and how long you have been trying.
