Infertility Scan

At Balaji Horizon Women’s Hospital, we emphasize the importance of strategic timing when considering an infertility scan as part of fertility evaluation.

Understanding the optimal circumstances for this diagnostic tool ensures comprehensive and timely assessment.

• Duration of Attempted Conception:

After One Year of Trying: If you are under 35 and have been actively trying to conceive for one year without success, it may be an appropriate time to consider an infertility scan.

After Six Months for Women Over 35: For women aged 35 and older, it’s advisable to consult with a healthcare provider and consider an infertility scan after six months of attempting conception without success.

• Irregular Menstrual Cycles:

Irregular Menstruation: If you have irregular menstrual cycles or have noticed significant changes in your menstrual pattern, an infertility scan can help assess ovulatory function and identify potential issues.

• Known Reproductive Health Issues:

History of Reproductive Health Issues: Individuals with a history of conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), endometriosis, or uterine abnormalities may opt for an infertility scan earlier in the conception journey.

• Male Factor Infertility:

Concerns About Male Factor Infertility: If there are concerns about male fertility, an infertility scan may be recommended for assessing the health and structure of the testicles.

• Previous Pregnancy Challenges:

After Pregnancy Challenges: Individuals who have experienced challenges such as recurrent miscarriages or difficulty carrying a pregnancy to term may benefit from an infertility scan to investigate potential contributing factors.

At Balaji Horizon Women’s Hospital, an infertility scan is a valuable diagnostic tool that plays a crucial role in uncovering potential causes of infertility. Let’s explore how this scan aids in identifying factors that may contribute to difficulties in conception.

• Visualizing Reproductive Organs:
  

Uterus and Ovaries: An infertility scan provides a detailed view of the uterus and ovaries, allowing the healthcare team to assess their size, shape, and overall health.

Fallopian Tubes: The scan helps visualize the fallopian tubes, checking for any blockages or abnormalities that may impede the movement of eggs and sperm.

• Assessing Ovulation:

Follicle Development: For women, the scan monitors the development of ovarian follicles, indicating the process of ovulation. Irregularities may be identified.

Endometrial Thickness: The thickness of the endometrial lining is assessed, ensuring it is conducive to successful embryo implantation.

• Identifying Uterine Abnormalities:

Fibroids or Polyps: Uterine fibroids or polyps, which can interfere with implantation, can be detected during the scan.

Uterine Shape and Size: The scan evaluates the shape and size of the uterus, identifying potential anomalies that may impact fertility.

• Examining Male Reproductive Organs:

Testicular Health: For men, an infertility scan may include a testicular ultrasound to assess the health and structure of the testicles, identifying factors affecting sperm production.

Detecting Varicoceles: Varicoceles, enlarged veins in the scrotum, can be identified during the scan and may contribute to male infertility.

• Guiding Treatment Options:

Personalized Treatment Plans: The findings from the infertility scan guide the development of personalized treatment plans tailored to address specific causes of infertility.

Informed Decision-Making: Patients and healthcare providers can make informed decisions about the most appropriate fertility interventions based on the scan results.
