Desire for Children
Safety | Trust | Confidence
Consultation Before Planning a Pregnancy
If you wish to have a child, you can create optimal conditions even before pregnancy so that your baby can feel completely comfortable.
This includes, for example, the early intake of folic acid, catching up on missing vaccinations, a balanced diet, and, if necessary, smoking cessation.
If you take medication regularly due to a pre-existing condition, please speak with your specialist about a possible adjustment for your planned pregnancy.
We are happy to discuss your individual situation and your questions together, and if you wish, also with your partner.
Evaluation and Consultation for Unfulfilled Desire for Children
An unfulfilled desire for children affects and burdens many couples. There are various causes for this. The evaluation begins with a detailed discussion with you and your partner. After evaluating your personal situation, I will advise you on which diagnostic steps are appropriate for you.
The basic evaluation for an unfulfilled desire for children includes:
- Hormone determination (blood draw on the 2nd–5th day of the cycle)
- Gynecological ultrasound
- Checking fallopian tube patency
- Spermiogram (examination of the male's semen)
Occasionally, additional diagnostics, such as a biopsy of the uterine lining, a 3D ultrasound of the uterus, or special blood analyses—for example, in the case of recurrent miscarriages—can be helpful.
You are welcome to bring findings from previously performed examinations. We will discuss your results and supplement any necessary analyses.
Therapy for Unfulfilled Desire for Children
As a reproductive medicine specialist and affiliated physician, I offer you the full spectrum of fertility therapies and accompany you personally throughout the process.
- Cycle optimization and hormone treatment
- Intrauterine insemination (transfer of sperm into the uterus)
- Artificial insemination: In-vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)
We will discuss which therapies are suitable for you after a thorough medical evaluation, taking your personal situation into account. My goal is to find a medically optimal therapy tailored individually to you.
