Fertility is a delicate topic, and for many individuals and couples, the decision to pursue parenthood doesn’t always unfold as expected. Whether you’re thinking about trying to conceive now or simply planning for the future, a Fertility health assessment can be one of the most important steps you take to understand your reproductive wellness. At PMH Fertility Center, we believe that early evaluation empowers people with the clarity, confidence, and support they need to make informed decisions about their fertility journey.

When to seek a fertility evaluation
You may be wondering, “How do I know if it’s time to seek help?” Here are some common indicators:
- You’ve been trying to conceive for 12 months without success, or 6 months if you’re over age 35.
- Your menstrual cycle is irregular, very short, or extremely long.
- You’ve had previous gynecological issues or reproductive system surgeries.
- You or your partner have known medical conditions that may affect fertility.
- You’ve had two or more miscarriages.
You are considering fertility preservation (like egg or sperm freezing) due to age or personal circumstances.
In any of these cases, undergoing a Fertility health assessment offers valuable insight into your reproductive health, including what may be affecting your ability to conceive and what options are available to you.
What to expect during the evaluation
A Fertility health assessment includes a variety of diagnostic tools and consultations:
- Full review of medical history and family background.
- Hormonal bloodwork to assess ovulation and ovarian reserve.
- Pelvic ultrasound to check for anatomical issues.
- Semen analysis to evaluate sperm count and motility.
- Genetic testing when appropriate.
- Lifestyle discussions related to stress, diet, sleep, and exercise.
This comprehensive approach helps us identify factors that could be impacting fertility — both physical and lifestyle-related — so that we can create a customized plan tailored to your goals.
The importance of early action
Many people delay fertility evaluations, often hoping that time will bring change. But early answers often bring peace of mind. A timely Fertility health assessment allows us to intervene before potential problems grow more complex, increasing the chances of success with or without treatment.
