A fertility doctor is also known as an infertility specialist or a reproductive endocrinologist, depending on their specific training and services.

When should I see an infertility specialist?

If you’re trying to get pregnant and it’s taking longer than expected, you may be wondering when to see a fertility specialist. Early evaluation can make a huge difference, especially if there are underlying issues affecting your ability to conceive. Fertility specialists can identify the causes, guide you through tests, and recommend treatments tailored to your situation, helping increase your chances of a successful pregnancy.


You should consider scheduling a visit if:

  • You’ve had two or more miscarriages
  • Your period cycles are irregular or absent
  • You’re 35 or older and haven’t conceived after 6 months
  • There are signs of male fertility issues (low sperm count, erection problems, etc.)
  • You’re under 35 and haven’t conceived after 12 months of regular, unprotected sex
  • You or your partner has known reproductive health conditions (like PCOS or endometriosis)


What are the most common conditions treated by infertility specialists?

Fertility specialists diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions in all genders.


For women:

  • Blocked fallopian tubes: Prevent sperm and egg from meeting.
  • Endometriosis: Tissue growth outside the uterus that affects fertility
  • Uterine fibroids or polyps: Growths that can interfere with implantation
  • PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome): Hormonal imbalance that prevents regular ovulation


For men:

  • Obstructions in the reproductive tract
  • Low sperm count or poor sperm quality
  • Hormonal imbalances affecting sperm production
  • Varicocele: Enlarged veins that affect sperm health

  • Perform assisted reproductive procedures such as IUI and IVF
  • Order hormone tests, semen analysis, and imaging to find the cause of infertility


What types of fertility treatments and procedures are available?

  • Embryo freezing: Embryos are preserved and stored for future pregnancy attempts
  • Ovulation induction: Medicines are used to stimulate egg release during menstruation
  • IUI (Intrauterine Insemination): Prepared sperm is placed into the uterus to boost the conception chances
