A word about infertility

     Infertility by definition is the inability for a couple to achieve a pregnancy within one year.  Approximately 20% of married couples have this problem.  In many cases it is treatable.

     After a thorough history, physical examination and preliminary laboratory investigation, many of the causes of infertility can be found.   These include:

     Treatment is based on the cause of the infertility and frequently involves close cooperation with the physician treating the female partner.

     Questions?  Please ask or make an appointment for a private consultation.

     Good Communication  is an essential part of any doctor-patient relationship.  You are encouraged to discuss any aspect of your healthcare with me.
