Why Am I Unable To Conceive?

Hi, We are trying for a baby for last 1 yr. But as of now nothing positive. I had a history of endometriotic cyst. I had gone through an operation almost 9 yrs back. But last ultrasound in February showed everything is normal. I want to consult a gynaecologist in Bangalore. Could you please suggest a doctor.

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Trying to conceive for more than a year with reports indicating normal could be due to secondary infertility. Both male factor and female factor needs to be clinically evaluated along with the investigations to know what could be the cause for the delay in conceiving.
You can consult Infertility specialist in this regard in any of the corporate hospitals or Infertility hospitals in Bangalore to get a proper check-up and management.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.

Hi there,
Welcome to HCM,

Since you have been trying for 1 year and have been unable to conceive it would be best to consult a gynaecologist and get basic workup which includes, hormone studies of FSH,AMH, TSh, Prolactin. Tubal patency test like HSG and partners semen analysis done.

Endometriosis though it was cured could have caused adhesions and a laparoscopy ( key hole surgery) to check for the same and any recurrent enodmetriosis may be required.

Take Folic acid while trying to conceive, and if all parameters are found to be normal, you can try to conceive naturally for another year. And if after another year of trying you are unable to conceive it you should consider IVF.

Hope this helps.
Regards.
