How Do You Find Out If You're Fertile Or Not? - Fertile Minds

If you're a woman, there are signs that can point to how fertile you are, such as a regular monthly cycle and ovulation, past medical history including any STI's, conditions such as endometriosis or the presence of fibroids, and more. For men, the easiest way to find out their fertility is by doing a semen analysis. There are also physical signs, such as testicular size, that can indicate fertility, but there is variability in this.
Dr Fleur Cattrall, medical director and fertility specialist at Melbourne IVF, explains how you can find out if you're fertile or not. At the end of the day, further tests are needed to have an accurate understanding about your fertility. If it's taking longer than expected to fall pregnant, a fertility specialist can help begin investigations.
