Baseline fertility tests -TTC No2

[Whatisgoingoff2024]

Can anybody recommend what blood tests I could look at getting to understand my fertility a bit better? We are TTC baby number 2 - I have no reason to believe anything is wrong however it is taking longer than with our first. I would rather be on the side of caution and know if something isn’t right now, rather than wait months to be told something isn’t right. I am happy to pay privately but I don’t know where to start?

Hi @Whatisgoingoff2024 most fertility clinics offer a ‘fertility MOT’ and that will be a good place to start, they do scans and blood tests for females to find out your egg reserve, can also do day 21 tests to check you are ovulating. They will also undertake sperm analysis too

hope this helps 🙂
