THE CONSULTATION
With the doctors and their teams, a medical consultation will be your first point of contact
in the process of your future pregnancy. In this consultation, the doctor will look over
your medical history and will prescribe some exams for you and your spouse. Your spouse
does not need to attend this first visit, it is up to you,
but it is best if they can attend.
THE CONSULTATION
A spermogram will be requested for your spouse.
Both partners will need blood tests for hepatitis, rubella, chickenpox, etc.
to complete their standard blood work. This data will help
us determine the best treatment to offer you.

OTHER TESTS
A pelvic ultrasound will take place during another appointment based on your menstrual cycle. This will allow us to see the shape of your uterus, calculate its measurements and see if any abnormalities are present. The ultrasound will also give us an overview of the ovaries and antral follicle count, also known as AFC (Antral Follicle Count).
An additional test known as “sonohysterosalpingogram” may also be requested by the doctor. It is an ultrasound where the doctor injects water in the uterus to see the interior of the cavity and observe the permeability of the fallopian tubes. (Most testing is covered by the RAMQ with the exception of ultrasounds and sonohysterography.)
IN CONCLUSION
Once all tests are completed, a diagnosis can be considered. If everything is normal, you will begin the next step, treatments. If there are any abnormalities (fibroids, polyp, Ashermann, etc.) we will offer you a treatment plan or a surgery that is right for you.
