Female Fertility Tests

Understanding Female Fertility Testing

Female fertility testing is essential in diagnosing and addressing reproductive health concerns. These tests help evaluate ovulation, hormonal balance, ovarian reserve, and structural abnormalities affecting conception. At DYU Advanced Fertility & Smart IVF Center, we offer comprehensive fertility assessments tailored to individual needs.

Key Female Fertility Tests

1. Transvaginal (Pelvic) Ultrasound Exam

A transvaginal ultrasound provides a detailed image of the reproductive organs, helping to assess:

• Ovarian reserve and follicle count
• Uterine abnormalities (fibroids, polyps, cysts)
• Endometrial thickness and receptivity

2. Sonohysterography (SSG) Test

A saline-infused ultrasound used to examine:

• Uterine cavity abnormalities
• Endometrial polyps, fibroids, or adhesions

3. Hormonal Blood Tests

Hormone levels play a crucial role in fertility. These tests include:

• Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH): Indicates ovarian reserve and egg quality
• Luteinizing Hormone (LH): Assesses ovulation and menstrual cycle regulation
• Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH): Evaluates ovarian reserve
• Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH): Identifies thyroid-related infertility
• Prolactin (PRL): Checks for hormonal imbalances affecting ovulation

4. Ovulation Induction Tests

• Basal Body Temperature (BBT) Charting: Tracks temperature changes indicating ovulation
• Urine LH Test (Ovulation Predictor Kit): Detects LH surge prior to ovulation

5. Hysterosalpingography (HSG) Test

A specialized X-ray test using contrast dye to assess:

• Fallopian tube blockages
• Uterine shape and abnormalities

6. Ovarian Reserve Testing

This test evaluates the quantity and quality of eggs through:

• AMH Blood Test (Anti-Müllerian Hormone)
• Antral Follicle Count (AFC) via ultrasound

7. Endometrial Receptivity Analysis (ERA Test)

A biopsy-based test that determines the optimal implantation window for embryo transfer during IVF.

8. Genetic Testing for Fertility

Identifies inherited conditions that may impact fertility, including:

• Karyotyping: Checks for chromosomal abnormalities
• Carrier Screening: Identifies genetic mutations affecting reproduction

9. Hysteroscopy

A minimally invasive procedure to examine and treat uterine conditions such as:

• Polyps, fibroids, adhesions, and septa

10. Laparoscopy

A surgical diagnostic procedure to detect and treat:

• Endometriosis, pelvic adhesions, ovarian cysts, and tubal blockages
