1 How long have you been trying?

Count from when you stopped using contraception.

2 Your age

3 Cycles and history

Are your periods regular?
Have you been told you have any of these? Tick all that apply.

4 Checks already done — for you

If you don’t recognise a test, "Not sure" is the honest — and useful — answer: it becomes a question to ask at your consultation.

Has ovulation been confirmed?
Have your fallopian tubes been checked?
Has your ovarian reserve been tested?

5 Checks already done — for your partner

A semen analysis is a simple lab test of a sperm sample.

6 Treatment already tried

Tick everything you have tried so far, however long ago. Skip this if you are only starting out.

About this page. It shows the pathway in general — it cannot say what is right for you, and nothing here ever means something is wrong. It never estimates your chance of conceiving, and it names no medicines or doses.

Nothing you tick leaves your device. Print or save your summary and book a consultation to talk it through.
