Initial Consultation & Evaluation

The journey begins with a detailed consultation with a fertility specialist. This includes understanding your medical history, lifestyle factors, and previous treatments (if any) to create a personalized treatment plan.

Fertility Testing

Before starting IVF, certain tests are recommended to assess reproductive health:

• Hormone level testing (AMH, FSH, LH, Thyroid)

• Ultrasound scans to evaluate ovaries and uterus

• Semen analysis for male partner

• Screening for infections or underlying conditions

Lifestyle & Health Optimization

Patients may be advised to make certain lifestyle changes to improve success rates:

• Maintaining a healthy weight

• Balanced nutrition and supplements

• Reducing stress

• Avoiding smoking and alcohol

Birth Control Pills

As part of the initial process, the fertility specialist often recommends birth control pills or estrogen to prevent the formation of ovarian cysts and control the timing of the menstrual cycle. This process helps align the growth of follicles to achieve a good number of mature eggs.

Treatment Planning & Counseling

Based on test results, the specialist designs a customized IVF protocol. Patients are also guided through:

• Understanding each stage of the IVF process

• Medication schedules

• Expected outcomes and timelines

• Emotional and psychological support if needed
