What a fertility specialist does
A fertility specialist deals with the ability to conceive and carry a pregnancy. People come in two situations: when planning a pregnancy and wanting to prepare, and when conception is not happening despite regular attempts. One point is frequently overlooked: fertility is a matter for the couple, not the woman alone. In roughly a third of cases the cause lies with the male partner, and in another third with both. A proper assessment therefore covers both partners from the outset. At GENEVITY the fertility consultation is backed by our own diagnostic facilities. The hormone profile, including AMH for ovarian reserve, is processed in the centre's laboratory. Pelvic ultrasound is performed on an expert-class GE LOGIQ E10. Where needed the physician involves an endocrinologist, since thyroid function, insulin resistance and prolactin all bear directly on fertility. On timing: couples under 35 are advised to seek help after 12 months of regular attempts without success, and after 35 following six months. If your cycle is irregular, you have had pregnancy losses, or you have had pelvic surgery, come straight away rather than waiting.

How the fertility consultation works
Reproductive history
The physician establishes the pattern of your cycle, how long you have been trying, previous pregnancies, surgery and chronic illness - for both partners.
Examination and ultrasound
Pelvic ultrasound with an antral follicle count is performed at the centre on the GE LOGIQ E10.
Hormone profile
AMH, FSH, LH, prolactin and thyroid hormones are taken in our own laboratory, timed to the correct day of your cycle.
The plan
Based on the results the physician sets out a plan: preparation, treatment of what has been found, or referral to a specialist fertility centre.
FAQ
If you are under 35, after 12 months of regular attempts without success; over 35, after six months. Do not wait that long if your cycle is irregular, you have had pregnancy losses or pelvic surgery, or a hormonal disorder is already known.
Ideally yes. In roughly a third of cases the difficulty relates to the male partner, and in another third to both. If coming together is not possible, your partner can be investigated separately and the physician will review both sets of results.
For a first consultation the day does not matter. Some tests are tied to it, though: FSH, LH and oestradiol are taken on days 2-5, and the antral follicle count is done in the first phase. Tell the administrator the date of your last period and a suitable slot will be found.
Assisted reproduction programmes are not carried out at the centre. We handle the diagnostic stage - investigation, hormone profile, ultrasound and treatment of conditions that reduce your chances - and prepare the full documentation for a specialist fertility centre where that is needed.
Anti-Mullerian hormone reflects ovarian reserve - the pool of eggs still capable of maturing. It helps assess the outlook for natural conception and plan timing. Importantly, a low AMH does not mean pregnancy is impossible; it is one parameter among several the physician weighs up.
Directly. Thyroid dysfunction, raised prolactin and insulin resistance all disrupt ovulation and increase the risk of pregnancy loss. A hormone profile is therefore always part of the work-up, and where abnormalities are found the fertility specialist works alongside the centre's endocrinologist.
A fertility appointment costs from UAH 1100 and lasts 30 minutes. Current prices are in the Prices section and the administrator will confirm them when you book. Tests and ultrasound are charged separately.
