Preparation for the first consultation

Before going to the consultation, you must collect all relevant medical information. This includes medical history, previous test results, and any fertility treatments you have tried. Transparency with your doctor is key to an accurate evaluation and effective treatment plan.

What to expect during the visit?

At the first consultation, the specialist will conduct a detailed interview. Topics such as medical and reproductive history, lifestyle, and habits will be addressed. It is not only a moment for the doctor to know your situation but also an opportunity for you to clarify all your doubts.

Some basic tests are usually performed during this first visit. For women, this may include ultrasounds to assess the health of the uterus and ovaries, while in men, a semen analysis may be the first step in assessing your fertility.
