When it comes to planning your future, knowledge is power, and few areas of health feel more personal, or more important, than fertility. A One Stop Fertility Assessment is a comprehensive set of tests designed to give you an informed picture of your reproductive health, whether you are planning to conceive now or in the future.
At Child Fertility, care is led by renowned fertility specialist Professor Tim Child and supported by a team of specialists, including many Oxford-trained specialists, delivering evidence-based assessments for couples across Saudi Arabia, combining world-class reproductive expertise with culturally sensitive care.
What is a fertility health check?
A fertility health check combines consultations, investigations, and diagnostic tests to assess the key factors that may influence fertility in both women and men.
Rather than focusing only on whether you are currently experiencing difficulties conceiving, a fertility health check looks at the wider factors that may influence fertility, including ovarian reserve, ovulation, sperm health, hormonal balance, and reproductive anatomy.
It can provide valuable insight into your reproductive health, whether you are actively trying to conceive or planning ahead.
This proactive approach can help identify potential concerns early, clarify reproductive timelines, and support informed decisions about natural conception, fertility preservation, or treatment options where appropriate.
Who may benefit from a fertility health check?
A fertility health check can be beneficial for individuals and couples who want to better understand their reproductive health, whether they are planning ahead or actively trying to conceive.
It may be particularly useful if you:
- Are thinking about starting a family in the future
- You are actively trying to conceive
- Women with known reproductive health concerns, such as irregular menstrual cycles, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), or endometriosis
- Men with concerns about sperm health or reproductive history
- Want a clearer understanding of your fertility before making life decisions
- Are exploring options such as egg or sperm freezing
- Simply want reassurance about your reproductive health
When should you consider a fertility health check?
The right time to have a fertility check depends on your age, medical history, how long you have been trying to conceive, and life circumstances.
You may be advised to consider testing if:
- You have been trying to conceive for 12 months (or 6 months if 35 or over)
- You experience irregular, infrequent or absent menstrual cycles
- You have a known condition such as PCOS, endometriosis, or hormonal imbalance
- You have experienced recurrent miscarriage
- You have a history of pelvic infections, endometriosis, or previous reproductive surgery
- There are known male fertility concerns, including previous testicular issues or abnormal semen parameters.
Seeking guidance earlier can help identify potential issues sooner and give you more time to explore your options with confidence.
What does a fertility health check include?
Your fertility health check is tailored to your individual needs, but typically includes:
For women:
- Detailed fertility consultation and medical history review
- Hormone blood tests, including ovarian reserve markers such as Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH)
- Ultrasound scan to assess the ovaries and uterus, including an antral follicle count (AFC), which helps to estimate ovarian reserve
- Review of menstrual cycle and ovulation
- Additional hormonal or reproductive investigations where clinically indicated
For men:
- Comprehensive semen analysis to assess sperm count, motility, and morphology
- Medical and lifestyle review
- Additional hormonal or specialist sperm function testing if required
For both partners:
- Fertility planning consultation with a fertility specialist
- Review of medical, lifestyle, and reproductive history
- Personalised guidance on next steps
What can a fertility health check tell you?
A fertility health check may help to:
- Provide a clear understanding of your current reproductive health
- Identify potential challenges to conception earlier
- Guide decisions around timing, treatment, or fertility preservation
- Offer reassurance if no concerns are found
- Provide expert recommendations for further investigation or treatment where necessary
It is important to note that no fertility test can guarantee natural conception or predict future pregnancy outcomes. However, early expert assessment can offer valuable insight and greater confidence in planning your next steps.
