Tests for Infertility

- hormonal testing to determine how well the ovaries are functioning
- pelvic exam and ultrasound to assess the health and function of the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries
- hysterogram, saline-infusion ultrasound, or FemVue庐 testing to determine whether the fallopian tubes are functioning properly and whether the uterus is normally shaped
- genetic carrier testing to determine whether an individual or couple is at risk for passing on a hereditary condition
Our doctors may perform several different tests to diagnose the cause of infertility.
We also test individuals and couples for infections, including chlamydia, gonorrhea, hepatitis B and C, HIV, human T-cell lymphocyte virus types 1 and 2, and syphilis. Immunity testing for diseases that can affect pregnancy is also performed. These diseases include measles, cytomegalovirus, varicella (chicken pox), and rubella.
