Some of the key issues in female infertility involve Ovulatory Disorders, Fallopian Tube issues, Endometriosis, Uterine problems, Age, and various Lifestyle factors.
The diagnosis of female infertility typically begins with a comprehensive medical history and physical examination. It involves the following:
1. Ovulation Testing - To check if the ovaries release eggs regularly.
2. Hormone Testing - To evaluate hormone levels, which can indicate ovulatory problems or hormonal imbalances.
3 Hysterosalpingography - An X-ray of the uterus and fallopian tubes to detect structural abnormalities.
4. Ultrasound - To examine the ovaries and uterus for any physical issues.
5. Laparoscopy - A minimally invasive surgery to inspect the pelvic organs for conditions like endometriosis.
Under Dr. Tushar’s supervision, various treatment options for Female infertility are available at the Cama hospital. They include:
1. Fertility Medications - These can stimulate ovulation in cases of ovulatory disorders.
2. Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) - Sperm is directly placed into the uterus during ovulation to improve the chances of fertilization.
3. In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) - This involves combining eggs and sperm outside the body and then transferring the embryos to the uterus.
4. Donor Eggs or Surrogacy - In cases where the woman's eggs are not viable, donor eggs or surrogacy may be considered.
“Infertility is a deeply personal and often emotionally taxing journey for many couples. It's essential to consult with a reproductive specialist to determine the cause of infertility and explore the most appropriate treatment options. With the right medical care and support, many couples can overcome female infertility and fulfill their dream of starting a family. We, at the Cama & Albless Hospital, offer just that to everyone who needs it. We strive to make a difference," says Dr. Tushar Palve.
