When you are under the age of 35, after a year of marriage and no use of birth control but still not pregnant. When you are over 35 years old, after 6 months of marriage and no use of birth control but still not pregnant. When you have 2 or more miscarriages. When you have been treated for infertility but have not been successful. If your menstrual cycle is irregular, or you have had gynecological problems such as endometriosis, pelvic surgery, infection or fallopian tube pregnancy, you should seek early advice and support. .

Diagnosis of the cause of infertility is sometimes easy, requiring only a few tests, but in some cases it is very difficult, requiring the cooperation of the patient.
Infertility exams include:
The doctor will ask about a history and physical exam. Blood test: Assess ovarian reserve: doctor will check FSH level on day 2 or AMH, ultrasound check AFC. These tests are used to assess the quantity and quality of eggs in the ovaries. Quantification of hormones: a common cause of infertility is PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome). This syndrome leads to an imbalance in hormones and makes it difficult to ovulate. An ultrasound scan of the uterus and fallopian tubes (HSG) and an ultrasound (sonohysterogram) checks the ovaries and fallopian tubes for patency. Semen analysis: to assess the quantity and quality of sperm. Depending on each couple, through clinical examination and tests, the doctor will advise and decide the most necessary support method.
