Should I go to the GP now?

[LBF2020]

We are TTC 1st. I have multiple health problems which are likely to cause issues getting pregnant (prolactinoma, endometriosis, PCOS) . Will my GP look at fertility testing etc despite the fact we have only been trying for 4/5 months?

How old are you? No harm in going sooner given your medical history but you may not get a referral. Good luck.

They don't usually refer until 12 months of trying.

Yes - I'm a GP - I start looking at testing at one year for someone aged 35 or under, and 6 months if they are over 35 or have a condition which is likely to impact fertility, PCOS and endometriosis fit that category. So I'd go soon ie when you've been TTC for 6m.

it's age and medical history dependent

@PurBal Thanks, I'm 30
@passport123 That's really good to know, thanks!

But you’ve been trying for nearly a year, right? 😉

@SuburbanMummy123 🤣 😉
