    Examination of a married couple

    Nowadays, every married couple has problems with conception at one time or another of their reproductive age. If you have been trying to get pregnant for more than a year, you can be diagnosed with infertility. Such a diagnosis plunges patients into a state of stress and suffering. Examination of a married couple can help in times like these. Now in the arsenal of a doctor there are many modern methods of infertility treatment, microsurgical methods, drugs and in vitro fertilization. All this gives a high chance of pregnancy.

The scheduled examination may take from one to two months.

    The examination procedure and the use of assisted reproductive technologies are regulated by the Ministry of Health of Ukraine. The scope of examinations may vary and this is determined by the doctor individually, after the initial consultation of the married couple.

    The scheduled examination of a married couple should not be stopped, even if the cause of infertility is found at an intermediate stage, since several different problems may be detected in the future.
    Already during the initial consultation, many doctors begin examinations based on the history of previous examinations and ultrasounds. In our clinic, as a rule, at the initial appointment, a gynecologist-reproductologist conducts an ultrasound examination (ultrasound).

    The revealed abnormalities found during one of the examinations do not always mean some kind of pathology, and it may be necessary to repeat the test to confirm or exclude the pathology.
    Only if the cause of infertility is precisely determined can the most effective treatment be prescribed.
