👩⚕️ Fertility Check with Our Experts 👨⚕️
🧬 Understanding Endometriosis & Low Ovarian Reserve
At our clinic, our specialist team—Dr Ashfaq Khan, Ms Scharazed A Rouabhi, and Mr Oudai Ali—are here to support you on your fertility journey.
🔬 Endometriosis & Fertility
Endometriosis is more than just painful periods—it can impact fertility by:
• Damaging ovaries through inflammation or scar tissue
• Causing ovarian cysts (endometriomas) that lower egg count
• Blocking fallopian tubes
• Altering pelvic anatomy with adhesions
🧫 Diminished Ovarian Reserve (DOR)
A woman is born with a set number of eggs, and over time, that number naturally decreases.
DOR means fewer eggs are available—sometimes with no symptoms at all.
Potential causes include:
• Genetics
• Cancer treatments
• Endometriosis
• Smoking
• Autoimmune conditions
• Family history of early menopause
🩺 Diagnosis Includes:
• Ultrasound (AFC)
• Hormone blood tests (AMH, FSH, Estradiol)
• Thorough medical history & physical exam
💡 If you're trying to conceive or planning for the future, getting a fertility check could be a valuable step.
