Essential Tips Before Starting Your Fertility Treatment

Puntos Importantes:

Seeking professional help in time can make all the difference. Time directly influences the success of fertility treatments.

Assisted reproduction offers multiple options and technologies. Success depends on an accurate diagnosis and choosing the treatment that best fits your case.

When choosing a clinic, review its pregnancy rates, the experience and credentials of the medical team, the quality of its facilities, and its national and international recognition. Choose a place where you feel listened to and supported, with clear and accessible information about every step of your treatment.

When to seek fertility help?

If you and your partner have been trying to conceive without protection for more than 12 months (or 6 months if she is over 35) or have experienced miscarriages, it’s time to consult. The WHO defines infertility as a woman under 35 not conceiving after 12 months of unprotected intercourse, or 6 months if over 35.

Remember that infertility can also appear after having had children. According to the CDC, 11% of couples with previous conceptions experience infertility.

Why does a woman’s age matter?

After age 35, the chance of pregnancy with own eggs decreases. In women under 30, the natural cycle rate is 20–30%, but by 40 it drops to 5% and the risk of miscarriage and genetic abnormalities increases.

Beyond age 42, conceiving with own eggs is rare. With donated eggs, many women become mothers past 50. At Ingenes you will receive a timely diagnosis and a personalized treatment plan.

Comprehensive couple diagnosis

Infertility affects men and women equally. A joint diagnosis ensures greater accuracy. In men, sperm concentration, motility, and morphology are evaluated through a semen analysis.

Treatment options

They range from medications like clomiphene (50 mg/day) to high-tech techniques. Having a clear diagnosis and knowing your alternatives is fundamental. You and your specialist will design a personalized plan to maximize your chances.

Frequently Asked Questions

When Should I Evaluate My Fertility?

If you are under 35 and have been trying for 12 months without success (6 months if over 35), consult a specialist. Early diagnosis saves time and stress and allows you to create an effective plan from the start.

How Does Age Affect Fertility?

Fertility declines after 35. By 40, the chance of conceiving with own eggs is 5% per cycle and genetic risk increases. A prompt evaluation and, if needed, using donated eggs can change your path to motherhood.

What Does a Semen Analysis Evaluate?

It analyzes sperm concentration, motility, and morphology. A normal result rules out male causes; abnormalities guide toward specific techniques like IUI or IVF with personalized outcomes.

Emotional Preparation for Treatment

Stress and anxiety affect fertility. Psychological therapy, support groups, and relaxation techniques reduce tension and improve treatment adherence. At Ingenes, our emotional support unit will provide strategies and continuous accompaniment.
