Based on your doctor’s initial assessment, your fertility work-up may include a combination of the following tests:

• Transvaginal ultrasound to assess the health of your ovaries, fallopian tubes and uterus –helps your doctor check for ovarian cysts, determine the quantity of eggs in your ovaries, and the health of the uterine lining (endometrium)
• Hysterosalpingogram (HSG) – x-ray to check for blockage in the fallopian tubes and to rule out polyps or fibroids
• Regular pre-pregnancy blood tests for sexually transmitted infections, HIV, Rubella, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C and Chickenpox
• Haemogram or Complete Blood Count (CBC)

Investigations for Men

• Semen analysis to assess sperm count, sperm motility (ability of sperm to swim through the female reproductive system) and morphology (sperm shape), and to check for the presence of antisperm antibodies
• Physical examination of the reproductive organs by an experienced urologist to rule out any physical abnormality, inflammation, etc.
• Hormone testing to assess blood levels of Testosterone, Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and Luteinizing Hormone (LH)
• Ultrasound or x-ray to identify a suspected physical blockage indicated by the semen analysis
