Fertility Treatment Options

There is no single fertility treatment path that fits everyone. The right choice depends on reproductive age, ovarian reserve, sperm factors, tubal status, genetic risk, prior treatment history, timing, and personal priorities.

A good plan starts by identifying the main problem: ovulation, fallopian tubes, sperm quality, embryo development, genetic risk, implantation failure, miscarriage, or a combination of factors.

Common options

Common fertility treatment paths include:

Lifestyle and ovulation management: useful for selected mild ovulatory issues or early-stage planning;
IUI: often depends on open fallopian tubes, adequate sperm parameters, and accurate ovulation timing;
Conventional IVF: used for tubal factor infertility, selected male factor cases, age-related decline, and other infertility diagnoses;
IVF with PGT: considered when embryo genetic testing may change embryo selection or risk management;
Fertilo-P support: used within selected laboratory workflows focused on embryo culture and reproductive microenvironment support.

What data guides the decision

Clinicians usually review:

Age, AMH, AFC, and baseline hormones;
Cycle pattern, ovulation history, and previous pregnancy history;
Tubal status, uterine cavity, endometrium, and inflammation history;
Semen analysis and DNA fragmentation testing when indicated;
Previous egg retrieval, fertilization, embryo development, and transfer outcomes;
Family genetic conditions or chromosome structural rearrangement risks.

The more complete the information, the less the treatment plan depends on guesswork.

When to reconsider the plan

It may be time to reassess if:

Several natural cycles or IUI attempts have not succeeded;
Age makes waiting more costly;
Egg retrieval numbers are acceptable but embryo development is poor;
Transfers have failed repeatedly or miscarriages have occurred;
There is a known genetic risk requiring PGT-M or PGT-SR;
Male factor issues are affecting fertilization or embryo quality.

Escalating treatment is not about moving faster for its own sake. It should solve a specific problem that has been identified.

What to prepare before consultation

Before a first consultation, prepare AMH, antral follicle count, baseline hormones, cycle records, pregnancy and miscarriage history, previous IVF records if any, and semen analysis. These help the team decide whether IUI, IVF, PGT, or Fertilo-P-related planning should be discussed.
