Infertility is a heartwrenching challenge for many couples. However, there are many options for couples wanting to raise a child. There are also many causes of infertility, so there are several options for fertility treatment.

The unique challenge of infertility is that it involves both partners. Furthermore, both males and females have different fertility challenges. Challenges can be related to overall health, preexisting conditions, age, weight, hormone balances, and the list goes on. Therefore, in order to find the most effective treatment, there are several tests given to patients. At Cool Springs OBGYN, we provide fertility testing for both men and women.

• Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)
• Fertility Medication

• NovaSure Endometrial Ablation

If you are under the age of 35, it’s recommended to try for one year before seeking help. If you are a woman over the age of 35, then you should only wait for six months before seeking infertility treatment.
