What medical tests should be conducted before undergoing IVF and how do these assessments help determine the appropriate treatment protocol for the patient?
1. Before IVF, tests like hormone profiling, infectious disease screening, and a semen analysis are essential. These help tailor treatment by assessing reproductive health and identifying potential issues.
2. Essential pre-IVF tests include ovarian reserve testing, uterine cavity evaluation, and STD screenings. These investigations inform fertility status and optimize treatment approaches.
3. IVF preparation involves blood tests for hormone levels, an ultrasound to check the uterus, and semen analysis. These tests help determine the best IVF protocol and increase success rates.
Before IVF, several tests are required: hormone levels (FSH, LH, estradiol) to assess ovarian reserve, semen analysis for male fertility, and a uterine examination to ensure optimal implantation conditions.
