Spoken in Marathi with English clinical terms. Antega summary and takeaways are in English.
There is no single waiting time that suits everyone. Earlier assessment is often appropriate with irregular or absent ovulation, known tubal disease, endometriosis, significant male-factor concerns, planned or past cancer treatment, or where reproductive age is a factor.
Key takeaways
- Many couples are advised to seek assessment after trying for around a year, and sooner at older reproductive ages.
- Some situations justify assessment straight away rather than waiting.
- Assessment involves both partners from the start.
