Ovulation check has a central role in the investigation of women as it relates to almost 1/3 of all infertility problems. Some women have some symptoms with their ovulation (slight abdominal pain that lasts for a few hours or brown fluids in the vagina). However, the majority of women do not have such symptoms. Alternatively, a woman may use an ovulation kit that checks for certain hormones in the urine or notes daily changes in body temperature and cervical mucus. However, because these methods are not considered to be very accurate, the doctor can confirm the ovulation by ultrasound examination 2-3 times during the cycle. In addition, in order to confirm ovulation and to determine the proper functioning of the lump, progesterone testing is recommended at that particular day of the cycle indicated by the doctor.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What patients often ask

Infertility is defined as the failure to achieve conception after one year (or 6 months, in the case of a woman over 35 years of age) of normal, regular sexual intercourse. In other words, when one year has passed without the woman becoming pregnant, the couple should consult their attending physician in order to determine the cause preventing pregnancy from being achieved and then address it. However, we must all be aware and not forget that age is the most critical factor for female fertility, and that an individualized approach for each couple is the “golden key” to solving the problem.
