An infertility specialist is an expert in reproductive medicine who comprehensively assesses the factors affecting getting pregnant. During the appointment, factors related to ovulation, the menstrual cycle, the functioning of the ovaries, uterus, and fallopian tubes, as well as sperm can be examined, for example. If necessary, the physician will also assess the impact of previous pregnancies, illnesses, surgeries, or medications on fertility.
Based on the comprehensive assessment, the physician plans the necessary examinations and evaluates what kind of treatments could be beneficial. The goal is to form a clear overall picture of the situation and proceed with examinations and, if necessary, treatments.
Timely action is essential for fertility health. It is advisable to book an appointment with an infertility specialist when starting a family is topical, challenges in getting pregnant have been observed, and you want to start investigating the situation with examinations. During the appointment, factors that may affect getting pregnant can be assessed and the necessary examinations planned.
It is good to investigate the situation at the latest if pregnancy has been attempted for about a year through regular and unprotected intercourse when under 35 years of age. If you are over 35 years old, seeing a doctor is recommended already within six months.
Please reserve at least one hour for the first appointment. If you have previous documents related to fertility examinations or fertility treatments, please bring them with you. They will help the physician understand your situation better and plan the continuation.
You can come to the appointment alone or with a partner. If you are seeking treatment as a couple, we hope you arrive together so that we can map out the situation comprehensively.
A gynaecological examination and a gynaecological ultrasound scan are performed on the woman. In this connection, the anatomy of the uterus can be assessed, and any structural abnormalities of the uterus or possible endometriosis can be detected.
During the first appointment, the necessary fertility examinations are planned together with the physician. These may include charting the menstrual cycle, detecting ovulation, and blood tests in the investigation of infertility. The basic examination for a man is semen analysis. After the initial investigations, further examinations can be carried out as needed.
Based on the examination results, an individual action plan is drawn up. This may include, for example, IVF treatments, i.e. in vitro fertilisation treatments, or other infertility treatments.
After the first appointment, you will get a clear picture of your situation and the next steps. Once the examinations are completed, the physician will review the results with you and ensure that the treatment plan corresponds to your individual situation. If necessary, the treatment path is continued with further examinations or infertility treatments, which can be accessed quickly without queuing.
Treatments are initiated when they are medically justified. Before starting them, however, efforts are made where possible to improve the conditions for fertility. Felicitas Mehiläinen’s infertility nurses are there to support you throughout the entire treatment path and answer your questions together with the physician.

Examinations are chosen individually according to the situation. They may include, for example, blood tests, an ultrasound scan, examination of fallopian tube patency, or semen analysis. A physician will assess which examinations are appropriate for the situation.
