Welcome to Fertility & Endocrine Associates
Infertility represents a complex physical, spiritual and emotional crisis and
affects all areas of a person’s well-being. Beginning the infertility
investigation (also known as the basic or advanced “work up”) with a new
patient and her partner is much like opening a mystery novel. It is most
effective to begin with the simple evaluation (often conducted by the
gynecology provider) and move to the more complex.
Because of the myriad causes of and contributing factors to infertility, it is
important to use a process of elimination, determining what the problems are not
in order to
better understand what they are. The causes of infertility are almost equally
shared by conditions affecting the female versus the male. Often, there are
combined factors that are contributing to a couple’s inability to create and
sustain a healthy pregnancy. Identifying these factors, providing education
and consultation to the couple and developing a plan for treatment is the role
of the clinical staff of Fertility & Endocrine Associates.

IVF is a method of assisted reproduction in which the man's sperm and the
woman's egg (oocyte) are combined in a laboratory dish, where fertilization
occurs. The resulting embryo is then transferred to the uterus to develop
naturally. Usually, two to four embryos are transferred with each cycle.
