Counseling and diagnostic evaluation for the infertile couple
Obstet Gynecol Clin North Am.
2015 Mar.
Abstract
Educating couples about natural means to improve fertility should include a discussion about appropriate timing to initiate a diagnostic evaluation for infertility. Complete infertility testing for both male and female factors allows directed care for all abnormalities to optimize chances for conception.
Keywords: Genetic causes of male factor infertility; Infertility counseling; Obstructive and nonobstructive male factor infertility; Optimizing natural fertility; Ovarian reserve testing; Ovulatory dysfunction.
