Couple's Fertility Assessment

Our Couple's Fertility Assessment is perfect for couples looking to get a better understanding of their fertility, or seeking some advice on how to optimise their chance of conceiving naturally. This service allows you to visit one of our fertility clinics, undergo tests and spend time with one of our expert doctors. We aim for you to be able to leave our clinic armed with both an understanding of your current fertility and the tools to enable you to plan for the future fertility journey.

Why have your Couple's Fertility Assessment at CREATE?

With over 20 years of fertility experience, CREATE Fertility is one of the leading IVF providers in the UK, with clinics across the country. Our Advanced Ultrasound Scan is the foundation of our approach, providing a detailed and accurate insight into your fertility, negating the need for more invasive testing or repeat visits.

As well as assessing your egg reserve, with our ultrasound scan, we are able to check the blood flow to your ovaries and uterus, and the 3D ultrasound helps to identify any structural problems within your uterus. Our AMH and TSH blood tests will help to estimate how many eggs you have in your ovaries (your ovarian reserve), and check your thyroid hormone levels which can affect fertility.

Semen analysis looks in detail at your sperm count, how your sperm move (motility), and shape of your sperm (morphology) and is carried out by our team of highly-qualified embryologists.

This appointment at one of our fertility clinics includes your Advanced Ultrasound Scan as well as a discussion with a fertility doctor about your potential future fertility, and if you are trying to conceive, we can advise you on how to optimise your chances of conceiving naturally.

Who is suitable for our Couple's Fertility Assessment?

Our Couple's Fertility Assessment has been specifically designed for heterosexual couples to gain a better understanding of their current fertility and what their future fertility many look like. It is perfect for couples who are still looking to conceive naturally but want some additional advice and understanding, but it is also great for couples who are not ready to have children yet but just want to understand their fertility situation.

If you are ready to start fertility treatment you should book an Initial Consultation & Scan which includes a treatment plan, which is not included in the Couple's Fertility Assessment.

What is the benefit of an advanced fertility ultrasound scan?

Ovarian reserve (how many eggs you have in your ovaries) can be assessed more accurately, which gives information about your fertility status.

Blood flow to your ovaries and follicles can be checked which gives indirect information about the quality of your eggs.

We can also check blood flow to the uterus and lining of womb - good blood flow aids better implantation.

We can identify any polyps, fibroids or any other factors affecting implantation and causing miscarriage.

What to expect during your Couple's Fertility Assessment

The Advanced Ultrasound Scan is an internal scan using an ultrasound probe and takes around 20-30 minutes. It can be performed at any time in your menstrual cycle and is not painful.
The clinician will assess your ovarian reserve (how many eggs you have in your ovaries) by looking at the follicle count and how big your ovaries are. They will also check how healthy your uterus, ovaries, and follicles are by checking the blood flow to each of them. Finally they will make sure that any issues that could affect your fertility, such as ovarian cysts, fibroids, or polyps, are identified.
The male partner will produce a sperm sample in a private dedicated space which will be tested in the clinic shortly after.
After the scan, the clinician will go through all of the scan results with you in the consultation part of your fertility check. If they feel that you would benefit from further investigations then they will recommend these to you. This could include a hysteroscopy or HyCosy procedure.
If after your Couples Fertility Test, you decide that you would like to have fertility treatment with us, then we will book you in for an Initial Consultation where we can discuss which treatments would be suitable for you and put together a tailored treatment plan for you.

What does the Couple's Fertility Assessment include?

Advanced ultrasound scan

The female partner will get a fertility ultrasound scan which takes around 20 minutes and can be performed on any day of the cycle. This fertility test looks at the number of follicles present within the ovaries, also known as the antral follicle count (AFC).

We'll also look at the quality of the womb lining and checking blood flow to the follicles and uterus which will give us a good estimate of your ovarian reserve.

Semen analysis

The male partner will be asked to produce a sperm sample in one of our private sample rooms, which will then be analysed by our experienced embryologists in the laboratory.

The semen analysis looks at the shape of the sperm (morphology), as well as how they move (motility) and how many sperm are in the sample. Your results will be available the same day.

Health check for both partners

Our clinician will check both partners height, weight and BMI. They will also take a simple blood test from the female partner to check your AMH and TSH levels, which shows your ovarian reserve, and thyroid hormone levels.

Medical history review

Talk through your medical history to explore any known problems that could be relevant.

Consultation

After both partners have had their fertility tests, you will then have a joint consultation with one of our experienced fertility consultants to discuss your results, answer any questions you might have and get advice.

If you are ready to start fertility treatment it is more appropriate to book an Initial Consultation and Scan which will include a potential fertility treatment protocol. A treatment plan not included in the Couple's Fertility Assessment.
