'One stop' Fertility MOT

Create clinic pioneered the 'One stop' Fertility MOT.

The idea behind it being that before embarking on Fertility treatment, or to find out if there are any issues regarding your fertility, you can have a medical assessment that combines medical history, blood tests and state of the art ultrasound techniques to assess your fertility.

It is carried out in only one hour, with a report given immediately after the test, and is offered to single Women, Men and Couples.

For Women: The test involves the use of expert, advanced scanning, including Doppler and 3D ultrasound. Ultrasound scan to check egg reserve, ovarian blood flow, ovulation, womb lining, blood flow to the womb, and to asses for any abnormalities. Some blood test may also be required.

For Men: A detailed, expert semen analysis. If any problems are detected advice from fertility experts is available.

An interesting article on the use of ultrasound to asses fertility can be found at:
