  Diagnostic Tests

An accurate diagnosis is the first step toward treating infertility. Because both men and women can have physiological problems that cause infertility, our specialists will screen and test each partner using the latest, state-of-the-art diagnostic tools.

After an initial consultation, members of your care team will create a customized diagnostic testing plan tailored to your specific situation.

Diagnostic tests may include:

  • Physical examination
  • X-rays
  • Ultrasound
  • Hormone, ovulation and semen evaluation

Fertility Treatments

After your specialist determines the cause of infertility, he or she will develop a personalized treatment plan for you and/or your partner. Your physician will consider age, overall health, medical history, infertility causes and personal preferences when developing your fertility treatment plan. Your customized fertility treatment plan may include:

  • Assistive reproductive technology, such as in vitro fertilization.
