The inability to get pregnant after one year trying to conceive with unprotected intercourse.What are the most common causes of infertility? • For women-age, ovulation disorders, blocked or damaged fallopian tubes, abnormalities in the uterus such as the presence of fibroids and endometriosis. • For men-low sperm motility, failure to produce enough sperm, blocked reproductive pathways, and abnormal semen.

• For first time patients, we suggest you visit the clinic on Day 10 of your menstruation cycle. • Patients who plan to start IVF/ICSI program are advised to come on Day 2 of the menstruation cycle.

• IUI is the simplest form of treatment available for sub-fertile couples and it involves the injection of a purified sperm sample into the uterine (womb) cavity of the women.

• ICSI is the procedure involving the injection of a single sperm into each mature egg to allow fertilization to occur.

PGS is used to denote procedures that do not look for a specific abnormality but to identify aneuploidy of 23 chromosomes in embryos.

IUI women with normal fallopian tubes and with husbands with normal to slightly low sperm count. IVF women with irreparably damaged or blocked fallopian tubes or who have endometriosis, ovulatory dysfunction, unexplained infertility and immunological problem and with husbands with normal to good sperm count. ICSI: Everyone qualifies especially husband with poor quality sperms,Frozen sperm,sperm retrieved testicular tissues or who have experienced low fertilization rate in previous cycle. PGS women with advanced maternal age, multiple miscarriages and a number of failed embryo transfers.

• Not all. However, your husband is required to come for the following appointments: a) Semen Analysis before IVF or ICSI program. b) Initial counseling session. c) Day of egg retrieval and embryo transfer.
