When should couples refer to infertility specialists? Women over 35 years of age should be referred for evaluation and treatment six months after an unsuccessful pregnancy attempt or if there is a clinical indication.
In women over 40 years of age, rapid evaluation and treatment is necessary, and women over 40 years of age should be referred for evaluation and treatment immediately after referring for pregnancy.
The important point is that couples should know the full physiology of the female body as well as proper sexual intercourse. Women release eggs only one day in each monthly cycle, and there is no fertility on other days. For this reason, the time of ovulation should be determined accurately and if all the conditions are met and having proper sexual intercourse without the use of contraceptive methods, if they do not conceive after 12 months, they should undergo infertility treatment. Men must be accompanied by women in this work, and they will be given tests to identify the obstacles and treatment methods, based on which the treatment methods and the prescription of related drugs will begin.
If the age of the woman is less than 35 years and you have not conceived within a year of trying to have a child, it is better to do the necessary evaluations for infertility and of course if you are more than 35 years old or any concern about the existence of problems in fertility It is better to consult a gynecologist (from the age of 35 and above, the ovarian reserve of a woman starts to decrease).
