Whether you’re thinking about trying for a baby soon or have already been trying for a while, a preconception and fertility review can help you feel more prepared and identify anything worth addressing early.
At Bronte Family Doctors, we offer fertility and pregnancy planning consultations for individuals and couples at all stages of the journey.
30-45 MINUTE APPOINTMENT
Ideally, preconception care starts a few months before trying to conceive. Your GP can help you review:
If you’ve been trying to conceive without success, we can provide an initial fertility assessment for both partners.
This may include reviewing your cycle and ovulation, arranging blood tests and imaging where appropriate, and organising a semen analysis. We can also help identify conditions that may affect fertility, such as endometriosis or ovulatory disorders.
If further assessment or treatment is needed, we can guide you through the next steps and arrange referral to a fertility specialist.
Pregnancy planning isn’t only about fertility. It’s an opportunity to optimise your health before conception and make sure you’re as prepared as possible for the months ahead.
If you’re considering pregnancy, you don’t need to wait until you’ve started trying to speak with us. A preconception appointment is a great place to start.
