To create a baby you need an egg, a sperm, and a uterus. It’s important that all these factors are healthy to achieve a successful pregnancy. The couple’s fertility test assesses the reproductive potential of both you and your partner. After your tests, you will have two joint consultations to discuss your results and plan the next steps on your journey to parenthood. By testing and treating you as a couple, we offer you the best chance of success.

The couple’s fertility test is a great option for couples who are currently trying to start a family, or who are thinking about becoming pregnant in the near future.

The following are included as standard as part of the couple’s fertility test:

• Semen analysis - The male partner will have a semen analysis to check the quality and quantity of sperm in his ejaculate. The results of this analysis will be reviewed by our Consultant Urologist and will be discussed with you by an experienced Embryologist.
• Ovarian reserve – The female partner will have an anti mullerian hormone (AMH) blood test to give an indication of the number of eggs in her ovaries.
• Pelvic ultrasound scan – The female partner will have a pelvic ultrasound scan to examine the size, shape, and health of her ovaries (including antral follicular count) and uterus.

Together, you will have a fertility consultation with Dr Chapman, a leading consultant in fertility medicine. We will explain your results to you and construct a comprehensive fertility treatment plan.
