If you are planning pregnancy or have concerns about fertility, scheduling a visit can help clarify your reproductive health status and options.

Fertility refers to the ability to conceive and achieve a successful pregnancy. Pregnancy requires coordinated function of ovulation, fallopian tubes, uterus, and sperm. Disruption in any of these processes may affect the ability to conceive.

Both female and male factors contribute to infertility, and evaluation may involve one or both partners.

Medical guidelines recommend fertility evaluation when:

• Women under age 35 have not conceived after 12 months of regular, unprotected intercourse 
• Women age 35 and older have not conceived after 6 months 
• Menstrual cycles are irregular or absent 
• There is a known history of conditions affecting fertility (such as PCOS, endometriosis, or pelvic surgery) 

Earlier evaluation may be appropriate based on individual medical history.

Fertility challenges may be related to:

• Irregular or absent ovulation 
• Hormonal imbalances 
• Tubal or uterine factors 
• Age-related changes in egg quality 
• Medical conditions affecting reproductive health 

Evaluation helps clarify which factors may be contributing.

A fertility evaluation is individualized and may involve:

• Review of menstrual and reproductive history 
• Ovulation assessment 
• Targeted laboratory testing when indicated 
• Pelvic imaging if appropriate 
• Discussion of partner evaluation when relevant 

Testing is guided by clinical findings and evidence-based recommendations.

Management depends on evaluation findings and reproductive goals. Options may include:

• Counseling on ovulation timing and cycle patterns 
• Medical treatment to support ovulation when appropriate 
• Coordination of care with reproductive endocrinology or fertility specialists when indicated 

Lifestyle measures may support overall reproductive health but do not replace medical evaluation or treatment when infertility is present.

Pregnancy planning includes attention to overall health before conception. Preconception care may involve:

• Review of medications and medical conditions 
• Immunization assessment 
• Folic acid supplementation 
• Optimization of chronic health conditions 

Preconception care supports healthier pregnancy outcomes.
