Infertility Workup Testing Process – Procedure
At Matritwa IVF, we believe that every fertility journey begins with clarity. An infertility workup is a structured and comprehensive evaluation designed to identify the underlying causes of difficulty in conceiving. Our goal is to provide accurate diagnosis, compassionate guidance, and a personalized treatment roadmap for every couple.
What Is an Infertility Workup?
An infertility workup is a step-by-step medical evaluation recommended for:
-
Couples trying to conceive for 12 months or more (or 6 months if the woman is over 35)
-
Women with irregular periods or known reproductive conditions
-
Men with known or suspected fertility issues
-
Couples with recurrent pregnancy loss
At Matritwa IVF, we evaluate both partners simultaneously, as infertility can involve female factors, male factors, or a combination of both.
Step-by-Step Infertility Testing Process
1. Detailed Medical Consultation
Your journey begins with a thorough consultation where our fertility specialists review:
-
Medical and surgical history
-
Menstrual cycle details
-
Previous pregnancies or miscarriages
-
Lifestyle factors (stress, weight, smoking, etc.)
-
Sexual and reproductive history
This discussion helps us determine the most appropriate diagnostic plan.
2. Female Fertility Evaluation
Hormonal Blood Tests
These tests assess ovarian function and hormonal balance. Common tests include:
-
FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone)
-
LH (Luteinizing Hormone)
-
AMH (Anti-Müllerian Hormone)
-
TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone)
-
Prolactin
AMH levels help determine ovarian reserve and guide treatment planning.
Ultrasound Scan
A transvaginal ultrasound is performed to examine:
-
Ovarian reserve (Antral Follicle Count)
-
Uterine structure
-
Endometrial thickness
-
Presence of fibroids, cysts, or PCOS
Ovulation Tracking
We may monitor ovulation through blood tests and ultrasound follicular monitoring to confirm whether eggs are being released regularly.
Tubal Patency Test
To check if fallopian tubes are open, we may recommend:
-
HSG (Hysterosalpingography)
-
SSG (Sonosalpingography)
Blocked tubes can prevent sperm and egg from meeting naturally.
3. Male Fertility Evaluation
Male factors contribute to nearly 40–50% of infertility cases. A semen analysis evaluates:
-
Sperm count
-
Motility (movement)
-
Morphology (shape)
-
Volume
If abnormalities are detected, further hormonal or advanced tests may be advised.
4. Additional or Advanced Testing (If Required)
Depending on initial findings, further tests may include:
-
Hormonal profile for men
-
Genetic testing
-
Diagnostic hysteroscopy or laparoscopy
-
Advanced sperm function tests
At Matritwa IVF, we recommend only necessary investigations to avoid unnecessary stress and expenses.
What Happens After the Workup?
Once all reports are reviewed, our fertility experts:
-
Explain the findings clearly
-
Identify the cause (if detectable)
-
Design a personalized treatment plan
Treatment options may include:
-
Ovulation induction
-
IUI (Intrauterine Insemination)
-
IVF (In Vitro Fertilization)
-
ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection)
-
Fertility preservation options
