Infertility treatment is a very serious and crucial stage in our patients’ lives. There are many causes and contributing factors to this condition. Therefore, it is very important to undergo a proper and comprehensive evaluation before beginning treatment.
To this end, patients will be advised to consult with related specialists for evaluation and, if necessary, treatment. The Lada Clinic has all the necessary specialists, each of whom has extensive experience working with patients undergoing infertility treatment. This means that all treatment plans are designed not only to cure the underlying condition but also to preserve or restore reproductive function.
So, you may need:
A gynecologist consultation – required in cases of disorders affecting the female reproductive system. These may include physiological disorders, postoperative complications, inflammatory diseases, etc.
A consultation with a urologist—may be necessary for both men and women in cases of kidney or bladder problems, as well as other conditions.
A consultation with an andrologist—is mandatory in cases of male-factor infertility, as well as in cases of spermatogenesis disorders.
A consultation with an endocrinologist is necessary for nearly all patients beginning infertility treatment. This is because hormonal imbalances are very often one of the primary or contributing causes of infertility, and without normalizing endocrine function, the IVF protocol will be unsuccessful.
A consultation with an embryologist is necessary in cases of unsuccessful IVF attempts or following a medically indicated termination of pregnancy. Doctors will help determine possible scenarios for the IVF protocol and methods to improve its effectiveness.
A consultation with a psychologist is recommended for all patients undergoing an IVF protocol. This specialist will provide support for any factors related to psychological infertility, elevated stress levels, nervous tension, and other negative aspects associated with treatment. Each IVF protocol at the Clinic includes one free consultation with a reproductive psychologist.
Consultation with a general practitioner—required to obtain a medical clearance confirming there are no contraindications to pregnancy and carrying a child to term. This is necessary before starting treatment to avoid negative effects on the expectant mother’s body and health, as well as to ensure the birth of a healthy baby.
Consultation with a breast specialist—required if there is a risk of breast disease or if any breast abnormalities are detected.
A consultation with a dietitian is needed if your body mass index (BMI) is abnormal, as well as if you have problems digesting or absorbing food. The doctor will help you develop a proper diet and exercise routine to restore your health to normal.
In addition, to undergo infertility testing and as part of your treatment, you’ll need to have an ultrasound and other types of tests.
