1. What to ask your doctor before undergoing fertility treatments, say the IVI Fertility IVF experts Couples who have been trying to conceive for more than a year are normally recommended to make an appointment with ​IVF specialists ​without losing any further time. Since female fertility declines at an exponential rate after the age of 35, women aged 35 or above are advised to go for a consultation six months after they start trying. Visiting a fertility expert can make couples anxious, especially if they are seeking treatments of this nature for the first time. After all, the fertility journey is never an easy process and can even take a toll on one's emotional health. The initial consultation normally forms a basis for the doctor to establish the medical background of the patient, including family history and health problems, before outlining the next course of action suitable to the case. At this juncture, it is important for the couples to ask questions, seek clarifications, and raise concerns, fears, and apprehension, if any. Doing so will empower the couples and help them in arriving at an informed decision. Most couples are overwhelmed during their first few visits, which can easily be avoided by researching on Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) and various fertility treatments prior to consultation. Listing down all the questions before going for the doctor's appointment also helps. Taking small measures before a visit to the doctor may help the couple in being fully informed, and confident about the further course of action. Dr. Laura Melado,​ IVF Specialist ​at IVI Middle East Fertility Clinics - a world-renowned name in the field of IVF treatments, says, "There are some questions that can be raised with the fertility expert to understand the situation better. These can serve as a guide and help in making the most of the first appointment." The questions that may be asked and a brief overview to each one of them follow: ● After an initial evaluation and assessment of risks and potential problems, what are other relevant tests that my partner and I need to undergo to help with the diagnosis and treatment?

2. "After reviewing the history and discussing the current condition with the patient, the doctor will decide if additional tests are necessary to determine the reproductive health. If a complete gynaecological examination is recommended, for instance, the patient will have to undergo an ultrasound scan. She may also be given medication to boost the chances of conception, coupled with recommendations to make lifestyle adjustments as part of the holistic approach. It is ideal to maintain a healthy lifestyle during the entire medical process not only to increase the chances of pregnancy but to ensure the health of the baby as well. The doctor will discuss with the patient an appropriate fertility treatment, necessary medications, and other additional medical exams required during the course of treatment." said Dr. Melado. ● What are the recommended treatments at the first consultation? The treatment depends on the couple's medical history and current circumstances. The right treatment for one could be Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) in which the sperm is prepared in the laboratory and then placed directly into the woman's uterus to increase the chances of the sperm reaching and fertilizing the egg. The solution could also be In-vitro Fertilization (IVF) method, a technique in which an embryo is created by fertilizing the egg with the sperm in a laboratory. If qualified for the IVF method, couples may also be advised Preimplantation Genetic Screening (PGS) before attempting an embryo transfer to increase the chances of a healthy pregnancy. Overall, the doctor's recommendation will depend on the patient's health situation and the findings of their tests. ● Do we need to undergo surgical procedures? Depending on the result of the couple's assessment and evaluation, fertility doctors may recommend a surgical procedure to further investigate the cause of infertility, or to fix the root of the problem. For instance, a physician may recommend a surgery to females with complications arising from fibroids, blocked fallopian tubes, polyps, and endometriosis, among others. Similarly, males may go through an operation to treat the condition that is hindering their capability to cause pregnancy. ● How long would it take for the fertility treatment to work? The duration depends on individual conditions and circumstances. Sometimes, it would only take one cycle for a pregnancy to be achieved. Others take multiple attempts before achieving a successful conception. ● Will the treatment be successful?

3. Reproductive Medicine is an ever-improving field of study. Even though the chances of conceiving through Assisted Reproductive Techniques (ART) are not 100 percent, there are so many reasons to remain optimistic given the rapid advances in the field of Reproductive Medicine. Technological developments and innovations in this area have also been impressive, resulting in improved treatments and outcomes.
