Fertility and desire for children
Fertility means the body's ability to have children. Some people get pregnant quickly, while others take longer or need help to succeed. If you want children – either now or in the future – and are unsure about your chances, a fertility assessment can give you some answers.
At Dr. Dropin, we have gynecologists with a special interest in and knowledge of fertility, who can help you with a fertility check and advice on the way forward.
Fertility check
Are you wondering why you are not getting pregnant? Or are you curious about how fertile you are? A fertility check is an examination that maps your fertility, and is suitable for both couples and singles.
Here you can read more about what such an examination entails, for both men and women, and what our gynecologists can help you with.
IVF
To successfully fertilize an egg, at least one of the woman's fallopian tubes must be open. With us, you can have an examination to see if you have a normal opening through the fallopian tubes, and if the uterine cavity is normal.
