Because of the large number of possible causes of infertility, an examination of both members of the couple by a physician who specializes in fertility management is often needed to determine the cause of the infertility [see Pregnancy Miracle Book].

The male

(i) A sperm count is taken from the male partner, and the number, shape, size, and motility of his sperm are analyzed, along with the nutrients in his semen.

(ii) There is also a test to evaluate the fertilizing ability of the sperm.

(iii) Male infertility may also be caused by obstructions in or an absence of the ducts (usually the epididymis) through which the sperm cells must pass on their trip from the testicles to the urethra during ejaculation.

The Female

The testing for the female partner is more elaborate and can consist of many specialized examinations, including:

(i) tests to determine if her fertility hormones are working properly and are in normal balance;

(ii) tests to determine if her cervical mucus is thin enough to permit sperm penetration;

(iii) Various examinations of her fallopian tubes to detect obstructions in them.

(iv) The female's cervical environment is also a major cause of infertility; the mucus and other fluids secreted there may be inadequate for sperm transport or may even be lethal to sperm because of hormonal abnormalities or unbalanced acid-alkaline ratios.

The tests are done in a medical laboratory, whilst other tests can be done by the couple themselves.This is article has been written based on Pregnancy Miracle Book.
