What? How to do?

IVF Treatment;

The couple has sexual intercourse for a year in order to have a child with natural and unprotected methods, but if pregnancy does not occur, a specialist should be consulted. If the woman is older than 35, then the waiting period is 6 months. After waiting six months, an infertility specialist should be consulted for IVF treatment.

Then the specialist should investigate the infertility situation of the couple in detail. In this study, factors such as the couple’s medical history, sexual diseases, previous operations, infertility period or working environment are also investigated. For the success of IVF treatment, sperm analysis is first performed on the male candidate. In this way, sperm count and morphological characteristics are determined and their fertilization abilities are investigated. Afterwards, urological examination and other examinations can be performed if deemed necessary for IVF treatment. Female infertility is more complicated. For this reason, structures such as tubes, uterine condition, hormonal factors, fibroids and polyps are investigated. Since there are more factors that can cause infertility in women, research should be done in more detail.
