Fertility clinic tests?

Hi everyone

I'm going to be referred to a fertility clinic soon and I just wondered what sort of tests they'll do?

Since going to the GP a few months ago, I've had blood tests done and have been told it looks like I have PCOS (based on blood results and irregular periods, though I've had two scans that didnt show cysts and the radiologist said it didnt look like PCOS..). I've also been tested for STIs, rubella (which are all clear), and my partner is awaiting semen sample results before the referral goes though

My periods are very irregular, cycles vary between 25-40 days normally though they can be longer, and have been 100+ days on a couple of occasions.

My partner and I haven't used contraception for about 15 months and while we're not desperately trying, I do want kids in my 20s (I'm 22) and would like to know if there are issues as things don't feel quite 'normal' and it does worry me

Before we got to the fertility clinic, we had all the tests they required done so when we went, they ran through everything and then prescribed me provera and clomid there and then. We had no additionally tests while we were there.
