Hysteroscopy can find lesions in the uterine cavity and diagnose uterine diseases such as: endometrial polyps, uterine adhesions, uterine septum, uterine fibroids, and endometrial inflammation, etc.

When is the best time for hysteroscopy?

After menstruation ends and before ovulation, it is about day 7 to day 11 of the menstrual cycle.

Is anesthesia required for hysteroscopy?

With a flexible hysteroscope, anesthesia is not necessary during the procedure.

When is it unsuitable for hysteroscopy?

• When bleeding is heavy, the imaging is unclear and cannot be examined.

• When there is inflammation in the pelvic cavity. This is to avoid a more serious infection.

• During pregnancy. This is to avoid affecting the fetus.

Are there any side effects from hysteroscopy? Is bleeding normal?

• The complication rate of hysteroscopy is very low (the incidence rate is about 0.05% to 1%), and possible complications include uterine perforation, allergy, infection, or hyponatremia.

• It is normal to experience slight vaginal bleeding after a hysteroscopy.

Carrier Genetic Test (CGT)

CGT is a pre-pregnancy genetic test for hereditary diseases that only requires a blood draw. It is used to check if a couple is likely to pass a genetic disorder on to their children. Through WES analysis, more than 2,200 monogenetic disorders such as cystic fibrosis, spinal muscular atrophy, and fragile X syndrome can be detected. According to the test results, you can choose to conceive naturally or undergo IVF treatment to screen out healthy embryos through PGT-M (PGD), thereby reducing the risk of giving birth to a baby with genetic abnormalities.

One in 100 live births has monogenic disorders.

Golden age of female fertility

• 21 to 25 years old is the peak of a female’s reproductive period.

AMH, short for Anti-Müllerian Hormone, is secreted by immature follicles in the ovaries. It is the indicator of ovarian reserve. Ovarian function is the key factor affecting pregnancy, therefore AMH level is an important indicator for predicting the success rate of IUI and IVF treatments.

The overall condition needs to be evaluated along with other blood test results.

The AMH test is not affected by menstruation and can be tested at any time.

Reference for 35 years old females:

Premature ovarian failure (POF) AMH <2

AMH 2-5

AMH >5

Normal

Possible be Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (POS)

POS requires a comprehensive evaluation and diagnosis by infertility physicians.

Golden period for natural conception

Taking the 28-day menstrual cycle as an example, ovulation occurs on the 14th day of the menstrual cycle. Ovum can live for about 24 hours after being released, while sperm can live for 2-3 days in a woman's body. Therefore, 3 days before and after ovulation are often referred to as the golden period for natural conception.

Ovulation Prediction:

• Vaginal Ultrasonography

• Ovulation Prediction Strips

• Basal Body Temperature Recording

• Vaginal Discharge Observation

8 Ways to keep your ovum healthy

TSI is divided into oral and injection ovulation stimulants. For the drug method, ovulation drugs are used to stimulate the ovaries to accelerate the growth of follicles, and then use ultrasound to observe the size of the follicles to determine whether HCG injection is needed. Finally arrange the time and frequency of intercourse. Doctors will also prescribe progesterone to help eliminate uncontrollable factors.

Take supplements as instructed by your doctor.
