Introduction
I’m Dr. Vaishali Giri, an Obstetric Gynecologist, IVF Specialist, and Cosmetic Gynecologist at MomStory by Sahyadri Hospital, Hadapsar. Today, I’ll guide you through the essential investigations we offer to couples dealing with infertility.
Initial Steps in Investigation
In our daily practice, we encounter couples wondering about the investigations for infertility. We initiate the process with a detailed history, understanding the possible reasons. Following that, a thorough examination helps us draw initial conclusions.
Investigating Couples
For couples attempting pregnancy for over a year without contraception, we investigate both partners simultaneously. Male and female factors contribute equally to infertility, with combined factors and unexplained cases constituting the remaining percentages.
Male Investigations
Starting with male investigations, a crucial test is semen analysis, examining parameters like morphology, motility, and count.
Female Investigations
For females, a comprehensive set of tests begins with a hormonal profile. Sonography assesses the uterus for conditions such as polyps, fibroids, or a septum. Tubal patency is confirmed through an HSG (Hysterosalpingography) procedure, ruling out any blockages.
Conclusion
When seeking guidance from an infertility specialist, expect a series of basic tests to identify potential issues. For more information on infertility and its investigations, feel free to contact us at the provided number. Thank you for your attention!
