If you’ve been trying to conceive for over a year (no matter what age you are!) and haven’t had any success, you should consider seeing a fertility specialist for an inital investigation.
Are you over 35 without getting pregnant?
Women who are over 35 years old and have been trying to conceive for at least six months should consider seeing a fertility specialist because age related factors may be hammering your efforts.
Do you have problemeatic periods?
Women who have irregular periods or have experienced missed periods should see a fertility specialist. This can indicate problems with ovulation.
Do you have or suspect you may have Endometriosis?
Women who have endometriosis, a condition where the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus, may experience infertility and should see me for a broader examination.
Suspected male infertility?
Men who have a low sperm count, motility problems, or other issues that may prevent conception should also see me.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_cta h2=”Ready to take the next step?” h4=”Book now” add_button=”bottom” btn_title=”Book now” btn_color=”white” btn_link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fdrdaniellerobson.com.au%2Fcontact-form%2F|title:Booking%20form” css=”.vc_custom_1692154366662{background-color: #00f4ff !important;}”]Call us on 1300 330 279 to book or fill in the form with your preferred time and location for your booking, and we will be in touch with appointment availabilities.[/vc_cta][/vc_column][vc_column pofo_column_animation_style=”fadeIn” width=”1/1″ pofo_bg_image_type=”cover-background” desktop_bg_image_position=”bg-position-center-center” pofo_enable_responsive_css=”1″ height_setting=”1″ ipad_height=”sm-height-500px” mobile_height=”xs-height-350px” offset=”vc_col-md-6 vc_col-xs-12″ css=”.vc_custom_1701933769881{background-image: url(https://drdaniellerobson.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/DS_TTC_Consulting_1200x900.jpg?id=22395) !important;}” responsive_css=”height_tablet:500px|height_mobile:350px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1678684771267{background-color: #f9f9f9 !important;}”][vc_column width=”2/3″ pofo_enable_responsive_css=”1″ css=”.vc_custom_1678838053633{padding-right: 10% !important;}” responsive_css=”padding_left_mobile:5%25″][pofo_section_heading pofo_heading_type=”heading-style2″ heading_preview_image=”heading-style2″ pofo_title_font_weight=”300″ pofo_title_element_tag=”h6″ pofo_heading=”The causes of infertility are many and varied” pofo_title_color=”#353535″][pofo_section_heading pofo_heading_type=”heading-style2″ heading_preview_image=”heading-style2″ desktop_display=”display-block” pofo_title_font_weight=”400″ pofo_title_enable_responsive_font=”1″ pofo_heading=”Infertility” pofo_title_font_size=”80px” pofo_title_line_height=”90px” pofo_title_color=”#00c3ff”][pofo_section_heading pofo_heading_type=”heading-style2″ heading_preview_image=”heading-style2″ pofo_title_font_weight=”300″ pofo_title_element_tag=”h4″ pofo_heading=”is a tale of two halves.” pofo_title_color=”#00c3ff”][vc_column_text desktop_width=”65%”]According to the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM), male factors contribute to about 40-50% of infertility cases.

In general, infertility is caused by ovulatory problems, tubal blockages, sperm abnormalities, or endometriosis. However, in cases of unexplained infertility, all of these factors are tested and show no sign of abnormality. It’s estimated that up to 30% of couples who seek fertility treatment have unexplained infertility. Some possible causes of unexplained infertility include problems with egg or sperm quality, issues with embryo implantation, hormonal imbalances, or even genetic abnormalities.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][pofo_section_heading pofo_heading_type=”heading-style2″ heading_preview_image=”heading-style2″ pofo_title_font_weight=”400″ pofo_title_element_tag=”h6″ pofo_heading=”Gamete donation”][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]Gamete donation refers to the process of donating sperm or eggs to someone else who needs it for conception.

These laws provide guidelines and requirements for donors and surrogates, including legal agreements, medical checks, and counselling.
Surrogates and intended parents must undergo medical and psychological assessments and obtain independent legal advice before entering into a surrogacy arrangement.
Only altruistic surrogacy is allowed in Australia, meaning that surrogates cannot receive any financial reward apart from reimbursement of expenses.
Surrogates must be over 25 years old, have had at least one child, and undergo medical and psychological assessments.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” parallax=”content-moving” disable_element=”yes” desktop_height=”900px” css=”.vc_custom_1678857518389{background-image: url(https://drdaniellerobson.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/DR_Over_30_0323.jpg?id=22338) !important;background-position: center;background-repeat: no-repeat;background-size:cover;}”][vc_column width=”1/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1678669267601{padding-top: 28% !important;}”][pofo_section_heading pofo_heading_type=”heading-style2″ heading_preview_image=”heading-style2″ pofo_title_font_weight=”400″ pofo_heading=”Find your break-through moment.” pofo_title_color=”#ffffff” pofo_title_font_size=”72px” pofo_title_line_height=”78px”][vc_empty_space][pofo_section_heading pofo_heading_type=”heading-style2″ heading_preview_image=”heading-style2″ pofo_title_font_weight=”400″ pofo_title_element_tag=”h5″ pofo_heading=”Some life goals need an uncompromising approach.” pofo_title_color=”#ffffff”][pofo_section_heading pofo_heading_type=”heading-style2″ heading_preview_image=”heading-style2″ pofo_title_font_weight=”400″ desktop_width=”75%” pofo_heading=”My meticulous attention to testing and diagnosis ensures you can have confidence in your reproductive care.
