Ep 312: Non-IVF Options for Fertility Treatment


Listen Later

 Fertility Docs Uncensored is hosted by Dr. Carrie Bedient from the Fertility Center of Las Vegas, Dr. Susan Hudson from Texas Fertility Center, and Dr. Abby Eblen from Nashville Fertility Center. In this episode, we explain the initial fertility workup for patients seeing a fertility specialist for the first time. This includes evaluation of the uterus, fallopian tubes, sperm, and ovarian reserve using AMH testing. We discuss how fertility physicians assess egg count and why each component of the evaluation is important. We review ovulation tracking methods, including ovulation predictor kits, and explain how they are used to properly time intercourse. Timed intercourse is discussed as a first-line fertility treatment option, including when it may be effective and when additional intervention is recommended. We also cover fertility medications such as letrozole and clomiphene citrate, used with timed intercourse or with ultrasound follicular monitoring to track egg development. The role of Ovidrel in triggering ovulation and improving timing is explained, along with its benefits. Finally, we discuss intrauterine insemination and the use of the FemVue catheter, which can help deliver sperm more effectively to a specific fallopian tube. This episode provides a comprehensive overview of fertility treatment options that do not involve IVF. This podcast was sponsored by IVF Florida.
