Our Approach

Where more advanced fertility treatment is needed, Dr. Indumathi will guide you on appropriate next steps and referrals.
Frequently Asked Questions
When should we seek an infertility evaluation?
Generally, after 12 months of trying to conceive without success — or after 6 months if you're above 35, or sooner if you have a known condition like PCOS or irregular cycles.
Does infertility always mean IVF is needed?
No. Many cases are resolved with simpler treatments like ovulation induction or IUI. IVF is considered when other approaches haven't worked or aren't appropriate for your specific situation.
Is the evaluation only for women?
No — a thorough evaluation looks at both partners, since male factors contribute to a significant share of infertility cases.
