What is Fertility Testing?

Fertility testing is a comprehensive diagnostic workup to identify potential causes of infertility. Both partners should be evaluated, as factors can be female, male, or a combination.

How It Works

1

Initial Consultation

Review medical history, lifestyle factors, and conception timeline with a fertility specialist.

2

Female Testing

Blood tests (AMH, FSH, estradiol), transvaginal ultrasound (AFC), HSG (tubal patency), and thyroid panel.

3

Male Testing

Semen analysis evaluating count, motility, morphology. Additional hormone testing if needed.

4

Results & Plan

Your doctor reviews all results and creates a personalized treatment plan.

Who Is It For?

Fertility testing is recommended for couples who have been trying to conceive for 12 months (6 months if over 35), anyone with known risk factors (irregular periods, endometriosis, PCOS), or those who want a baseline assessment before trying.

Who It May Not Be Right For

Fertility testing is recommended for virtually anyone struggling to conceive. However, extensive testing may not be necessary for couples who have been trying for fewer than 6-12 months (depending on age) without risk factors.

Success Factors

A thorough evaluation identifies the cause of infertility in about 85% of cases, allowing for targeted treatment. The remaining 15% are classified as unexplained infertility.

Timeline

Most testing can be completed within 1–2 menstrual cycles (4–8 weeks).

Risks & Side Effects

  • HSG test can cause cramping and mild discomfort
  • Very small risk of infection from HSG or other invasive tests
  • Emotional impact of receiving a difficult diagnosis
  • Cost of testing can add up without insurance

Insurance Reality

Most diagnostic fertility testing is covered by insurance as a medical workup, even in states without fertility treatment mandates. Blood tests, ultrasounds, and semen analysis are usually coded as diagnostic. HSG may require prior authorization.

Alternatives to Consider

At-home fertility tests

OTC tests for AMH and sperm count exist but are less comprehensive than clinical testing. They can be a starting point but should not replace a full evaluation.

Expectant management

For young couples with no risk factors, trying naturally for 12 months before testing is reasonable — but not recommended if the woman is over 35 or there are known risk factors

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I get fertility testing?

After 12 months of trying if under 35, after 6 months if over 35, or immediately if you have known risk factors (irregular periods, endometriosis, PCOS, prior cancer treatment, or known male factor issues).

What does a basic fertility workup include?

For women: blood tests (AMH, FSH, estradiol, thyroid), transvaginal ultrasound (AFC), and HSG (tubal patency test). For men: semen analysis. This covers about 85% of identifiable causes.

How much does fertility testing cost?

A basic workup costs $250-$2,000 depending on which tests are needed. Most diagnostic testing is covered by insurance as it's categorized as medical evaluation, not fertility treatment.
