Fertility testing to identify causes of female infertility

Testing for female infertility begins with a conversation about your health history, and progresses from fertility blood tests and sonograms, to non-surgical tests such as hysterosalpingogram (HSG) and, possibly, minimally invasive fertility surgery. While we are testing you for female causes, your fertility doctor will order a semen analysis for your partner to rule out male factors.

Female infertility testing usually takes one menstrual cycle to complete.

It’s important to begin this process by focusing on the positive. Most cases of infertility will be resolved with fertility treatment and only a small percentage of women will need advanced reproductive technologies such as in vitro fertilization, IVF. Our website details the many options you have for overcoming female infertility, with fertility treatments to address ovulation factors, blocked tubes, endometriosis, recurrent miscarriage and unexplained infertility.
