Hello,
For conception various tests are required to know the ferttility status.
I am suggesting a basic profile for both of you.
For your wife-Blood tests FSH LH prolactin TSH and AMH to be done on day 3 of periods. TVS folliculometry(ultrasound assessment of egg formation ) from day 10/11 of cycle(periods) till ovulation.
For you Semen examination after 3-4 days abstinence. Its important to have correct abstinence and sample collection has to be done in the lab.
This treatment is given by Gynaecologists in India and most of other countries.
Some doctors are dedicatedly doing infertility only.
Its better to go step wise.
Best wishes
