General information

After thoroughly investigating all potential causes of infertility in the couple, the underlying causes are identified and treatment options are reviewed. It is necessary to select a personalized treatment based on the age of the patient, the period of pregnancy attempts, history of previous treatments, known diseases, and the results of the diagnostic tests. Pregnancy can be achieved in a very short time with such personalized treatments designed according to the characteristics of couples. One treatment option is to administer medications to stimulate the growth of the female eggs so that timing of the sexual intercourse will be scheduled in relation to  ovulation . Another treatment option is to administer medications via injections in  intrauterine insemination (IUI), or in vitro fertilization (IVF). Among the treatment options, the likelihood of conception is highest with the in vitro fertilization (IVF) method (50-80%). Intrauterine insemination (IUI) and scheduled sexual intercourses result in pregnancy in one woman on the average out of every 4 - 5 women; therefore, these options should be reserved only for patients with specific conditions. The cost and success rates of the selected treatment options must be discussed with the couple. The treatment options should be carefully selected and carried out by paying attention not to create any financial or psychological burden on the family.
