What is Female Infertility?

Female infertility is defined as the inability to conceive after 1 year of unprotected intercourse. For women over 35 years, this period is reduced to 6 months.

Main causes of female infertility:

  • Ovulation disorders
  • Blocked or damaged fallopian tubes
  • Intrauterine adhesions or fibroids
  • Endometriosis (chocolate cysts)
  • Decreased ovarian reserve due to advanced age
  • Hormonal imbalances (thyroid, prolactin, etc.)

Infertility treatment for women in Cyprus requires detailed analysis of the cause and creating a personalized treatment plan accordingly.

How is Female Infertility Diagnosed in Cyprus

At Dr. Murat Önal’s clinic, female infertility diagnosis is carried out using modern imaging and laboratory techniques.

Main diagnostic methods include:

  • Hormone tests: FSH, LH, AMH, estradiol, thyroid hormones, and prolactin levels
  • Ultrasound: Evaluation of ovarian reserve (antral follicle count) and uterine anatomy
  • HSG (hysterosalpingography): Checks the patency of fallopian tubes
  • Laparoscopy: Used when necessary to identify endometriosis or tubal issues
  • Genetic tests: Recommended for recurrent miscarriage or IVF failure history

Result: After diagnosis, the most suitable treatment protocol is planned based on the patient’s age, ovarian reserve, and any accompanying conditions.
