Conditions

  • Definition - not conceiving after 12 months of regular unprotected intercourse or after 6 months if the female partner is over 35
  • Ovulation disorders - including PCOS, thyroid dysfunction and raised prolactin
  • Tubal blockage or damage - often following past pelvic infection or surgery
  • Endometriosis - affecting egg quality, tubal function and implantation
  • Uterine factors - fibroids, polyps, adhesions or congenital abnormalities
  • Reduced ovarian reserve - a natural decline in egg quantity and quality with age
  • Male factors - low sperm count, poor motility, abnormal shape, azoospermia, varicocele, past injury or hormonal disorders
  • Shared factors - age, weight, smoking, alcohol, uncontrolled diabetes and thyroid disease

Treatments & Procedures

Our advanced fertility treatments incorporate state-of-the-art reproductive technologies to help individuals and couples achieve their dream of parenthood. We offer personalized, comprehensive treatment plans ranging from medical management to assisted reproductive techniques.

  • Assessment of both partners

    A detailed history from both of you, then examination. Evaluating only the woman is an incomplete investigation.

  • Investigations - female partner

    Hormonal blood tests including thyroid, prolactin and AMH; pelvic ultrasound; follicular tracking and a test to check whether the fallopian tubes are open.

  • Investigations - male partner

    Semen analysis is the first and most important test - simple, inexpensive and frequently decisive. Repeated if abnormal.

  • Lifestyle and timing

    Weight optimisation, stopping smoking and alcohol, controlling diabetes and thyroid disorders and correctly timing intercourse around ovulation.

  • Ovulation induction

    Medication to stimulate egg release where ovulation is irregular or absent, monitored by ultrasound. Often the first treatment for PCOS-related infertility.

  • IUI and surgical correction

    Intrauterine insemination for mild male-factor, cervical factors and unexplained infertility; laparoscopy or hysteroscopy for endometriosis, fibroids, polyps or tubal disease; varicocele repair where indicated.

Assisted reproduction (IVF / ICSI) is considered where tubes are blocked, male-factor infertility is severe, ovarian reserve is low or simpler treatments have not succeeded. Astra will explain which steps can be completed here and when a licensed ART unit is the appropriate next referral.

When to Seek Help

  • After 12 months of regular unprotected intercourse without conception
  • After 6 months if the female partner is over 35
  • Immediately if there are irregular or absent periods, known PCOS or endometriosis, a history of pelvic infection or surgery, previous miscarriages, previous testicular surgery or injury or a known low sperm count

You Are Not Alone in This

Fertility treatment is emotionally demanding. Bring your partner to consultations. Ask every question you have, including the ones that feel foolish. Ask about realistic success rates for your specific situation rather than general figures. Related care: PCOS, fibroids and endometriosis, pregnancy and antenatal care and our consultant.

Frequently asked questions

Twelve months of regular unprotected intercourse or six months if the female partner is over 35. Seek help immediately if there are irregular periods, known PCOS or endometriosis, previous pelvic surgery or infection, repeated miscarriages or a known sperm problem.

Yes, always and at the first visit. Male factors contribute to roughly half of all infertility. A semen analysis is often the single most informative test.

Frequently, yes. Many women with PCOS conceive with lifestyle change alone or with ovulation-induction medication. PCOS reduces fertility; it rarely eliminates it.

In IUI, prepared sperm is placed into the uterus around ovulation and fertilisation happens inside the body. In IVF, eggs are retrieved and fertilised in a laboratory. IVF is used where tubes are blocked, male-factor infertility is severe or simpler treatments have failed.

Severe stress can disrupt ovulation, but it is very rarely the sole cause. If you have been trying for a year without success, get investigated rather than assuming stress is the explanation.
