Expertise and experience
There are many reasons to see a fertility specialist, but it must be the right time for you.
Fertility can be affected by your age, underlying conditions, and medical history. Around 1 in 7 couples experience infertility, and in more than 30% of those cases, male infertility is the cause.
At TFP Fertility UK, you don’t need to be referred to see our fertility specialists. We offer a no-obligation consultation so you can discuss your concerns and have your questions answered.
If you decide to have a fertility assessment with us, it’ll be comprehensive and tailored to your individual circumstances.
We’ll guide you through the tests and the results, before explaining potential next steps to you. And you’ll have the opportunity to ask questions throughout.
This can be an unsettling time. We’ll make sure you get the answers you need and feel supported to make the right decisions.
Contact us to book a consultation with one of our experts or to find out what type of fertility assessment is right for you.
When to seek help
You should see a fertility specialist if you’ve been trying to conceive for a year or more.
We recommend seeking advice sooner if:
You have medical problems or problems with your menstrual cycle
You’re aged 36 or over – the decline in your ability to conceive starts to speed up in your mid-30s

Getting advice sooner
You may know you have an underlying condition that may make it harder to conceive naturally.
If this is the case, you should seek advice from a fertility specialist sooner rather than later.
They will be able to give you the information and options to help you make an informed decision about what to do next.
Some of the reasons to see a fertility specialist include:
Irregular or no periods
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
Endometriosis
Multiple miscarriages
Cancer treatment
Male infertility can also be caused by underlying conditions such as:
Erectile dysfunction
Varicoceles
History of undescended testicle(s)
Cancer treatment
Obesity

Our fertility assessments
We offer fertility assessments for individuals or couples at all our clinics, with various packages designed to suit your personal circumstances.
You don’t need to have seen a GP or have a referral to book an assessment with us.
It just takes one or two visits to the clinic to complete all the necessary investigations and have a consultation with one of our fertility specialists.
We’ll do an initial assessment and ask about your medical history and lifestyle.
There are some lifestyle factors that can affect fertility, including weight, smoking, alcohol, exercise, and stress.
We may recommend making changes to your lifestyle to help you conceive.
Women can then be referred for tests, including blood tests to measure hormone levels, and scans to check the ovaries, womb, and fallopian tubes.
Men may be referred for semen analysis to check for any problems with sperm, such as low sperm count.
