Fertility & Reproductive Care
I’m trying to get pregnant.
Whether you have been trying for six months or six years, the first step is understanding why, before anyone talks about treatment.
Come in if any of this sounds like you.
- A year of trying without success, or six months if you are 35 or older
- Irregular or absent periods
- Known PCOS or endometriosis
- Previous pelvic surgery
- Two or more miscarriages
What we help with
Where would you like to start?
An honest first opinion before anyone talks about IVF. Evaluation of both partners, ovulation and hormonal assessment, PCOS, tubal and uterine factors, and recurrent pregnancy loss.
- Fertility evaluation
- PCOS and ovulation
- Recurrent miscarriage
- IUI and IVF
- Fertility-preserving surgery
Your first visit
What happens when you come in.
Knowing the shape of the appointment makes it easier to book one.
- 01
You talk first
A full history before any test: what has been happening, for how long, what you have already tried, and what you are actually worried about.
- 02
Examination and, where useful, a scan
An examination with a female attendant present. Where a scan or blood test will change the answer, it is done; where it will not, it is not ordered.
- 03
What was found, explained
In Tamil, Kannada, English or whichever language you are most comfortable in. What the findings mean, what they do not mean, and what is likely to happen next.
- 04
The options, including doing nothing
Every reasonable option, with its trade-offs. Watchful waiting is an option and is named as one. You decide, with a clear plan and a date to review it.
Common questions
Questions we are asked most.
General information, not medical advice for your situation. Bring your own question to a consultation.
Ask on WhatsApp- How long should we try before seeing a fertility specialist?
- Generally one year of regular unprotected sex if you are under 35, and six months if you are 35 or older. Come sooner if your periods are irregular or absent, if you have known PCOS or endometriosis, if you have had pelvic surgery, or if you have had two or more miscarriages.
- Does PCOS mean I will not be able to get pregnant?
- No. PCOS affects how regularly you ovulate, not whether you can conceive at all, and many women with PCOS become pregnant. Treatment usually starts with weight, insulin and cycle management, then ovulation induction if needed, well before assisted treatment is considered.
- Do we need IVF straight away?
- Usually not. IVF is one option among several and it comes after a full evaluation of both partners, not before it. Many couples conceive with simpler treatment once the actual reason is understood, and a specialist should be able to explain why IVF is or is not the right next step for you.
