When to seek help for Fertility Treatment?

It can be disheartening and demoralising to know that becoming a parent is not as easy as we thought to be. In an ideal world, every couple gets pregnant after having unprotected sex for a few occasions. However, in the real world this is hardly the case. Today, more and more couples are finding it difficult to conceive because of their fast paced lives, erratic lifestyles, adulterated food, pollution and lack of exercise. Couples keep trying for months and sometimes years before finally accepting that yes, something is wrong and we need treatment. This acceptance is difficult to come by, but once it comes, you’ve taken the first successful step towards parenthood. Because then, all you need to do is visit the right Fertility Centre and begin your journey towards becoming a parent. Providing the best IVF treatment in Delhi, we fathom that the advances in Reproductive Medicine has made it possible for virtually everyone to become a genetic parent eventually.

Time, the great leveller

Infertility can affect anyone at any age. However, the chances of needing an IVF treatment rise as you age. You should seek infertility treatment when :

  • Under 35 years of age, regular menstrual cycles, no pregnancy after trying for 1 year.
  • 35 to 38 years, regular cycles, no pregnancy after trying for 6 months.
  • More than 38 years, regular cycles, no pregnancy after trying for just 3 months.

In all the above scenarios, if your menstrual cycles are irregular, you should seek treatment earlier. If you want to take a safer side, assume the worst and meet a good Fertility expert rather than waiting. This is particularly true if you are keen for having your own genetic baby (if you do not wish to have egg donation). Remember, time is of essence.

It could be your husband

It is well known that the male partner is responsible for almost half of all infertility cases. That infertility is just a female problem is an old myth which is busted. This is exactly the reason why, at Janini IVF, the best test tube baby centre in Delhi NCR, during the initial consultation we test both partners (wife and husband) together simultaneously. Male fertility problems are increasing day by day, world over. Sperm counts are dropping, motility is coming down and semen parameters are growing weak in almost all populations. These are the new world problems and scientists are blaming erratic lifestyles and environmental pollution behind this global phenomenon.

Watch for the signs, listen to your body

Unfortunately, there are no sure shot symptoms that point towards infertility or whether you’d be needing IVF treatment. This is the reason, we need to perform some blood tests and Sonography to figure out what the problem is. But in certain circumstances there will be a few signs that can help in clinching the diagnosis and also guide you to seek treatment earlier :

  • Painful menstrual periods or pain while having sex could point towards Endometriosis
  • Irregular periods, abnormal hair growth, weight gain point towards PCOS
  • Dull ache in abdomen, excessive bleeding, spotting between periods, etc could point towards a fibroid or polyp in your uterus
  • Multiple miscarriages, could point towards a genetic fault, uterine defects or a blood clotting problem. In any case with multiple (2 or more than 2) miscarriages you should not wait and seek treatment immediately
  • History of genetic or hereditary conditions on the wife or husband’s side
  • History of being operated for ovarian cyst, fibroid, tubal surgery or ectopic pregnancy, Endometriotic cyst, etc.

The above conditions should be met with due vigilance to know that you might need expert help sooner. With any of the above conditions, you shouldn’t wait and seek help of a trusted infertility specialist such as Janini IVF in Delhi.

Opening the door to the right treatment

If any of the above conditions sound familiar to you then you should definitely seek counselling and support. Visiting your local general Gynecologist may or may not help. Usually, the general Gynecologist prescribes a tablet like Clomiphene Citrate or Letrozole which might not be that effective depending on your specific case. This is particularly true for women who are approaching the age of 35 or have already crossed this age - then the sooner you seek treatment the better it will be for you. Again, your husband should undergo the Semen Analysis test at a place like Janini IVF, that is, scientifically adept and has experienced personnel to perform the test accurately.
