When should you visit Gynecologists or fertility clinic?
It's generally recommended to visit a gynecologist annually for routine check-ups, starting from the onset of puberty. These check-ups help in early detection of any potential issues and maintaining reproductive health.
Consider visiting a fertility specialist if you:
Are experiencing difficulty conceiving after a year of trying (or six months if you're over 35)
Have irregular or absent periods
Have a history of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)
Have endometriosis
Have a history of miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy
Have concerns about your fertility due to age, medical conditions, or lifestyle factors
Remember, it's never too early to seek advice if you have any concerns about your reproductive health. Early intervention can often increase the chances of successful conception.

Laparoscopy
Laparoscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat a variety of pelvic conditions that can affect fertility. It involves inserting a thin, lighted instrument (laparoscope) through a small incision near the navel to examine the reproductive organs.
Why Laparoscopy?
- Diagnose conditions such as endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease, fibroids, and blocked fallopian tubes.
- Treat conditions like endometriosis, adhesions, and cysts.
- Evaluate the condition of the uterus and ovaries.
- Assess the need for further fertility treatments like IVF.
Benefits of Laparoscopy:
- Less invasive than traditional surgery.
- Shorter recovery time.
- Minimal scarring.
IVF (In Vitro Fertilization)
In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is a complex fertility treatment that involves removing eggs from a woman’s ovaries and fertilizing them with sperm in a laboratory. The fertilized egg (embryo) is then transferred to the woman’s uterus.
IVF Process:
- Ovulation stimulation: Medications are used to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs.
- Egg retrieval: Eggs are removed from the ovaries through a minor surgical procedure.
- Fertilization: Eggs are combined with sperm in a laboratory dish.
- Embryo transfer: One or more embryos are transferred to the woman’s uterus.
IVF is often recommended for couples with:
- Blocked fallopian tubes
- Severe endometriosis
- Male factor infertility
- Unexplained infertility
