Looking for an Infertility Doctor

When a couple has been trying to conceive for a year and still has had no luck it may be time for them to seek out the advice of an infertility doctor. For many, they may feel more comfortable sticking with their own family doctor or a gynecologist, but for others they decide to turn to an infertility doctor that has special training in infertility as opposed to just the basic gynecological training.

An infertility doctor can also be a male infertility doctor. These physicians are called Reproductive Endocrinologists and they have had additional training that enables them to work with both males and females.

What is an Infertility Doctor?

Some of the physicians that run fertility clinics are not necessarily trained in the field of endocrinology. They are often gynecologist with an interest in infertility that has worked with many infertile couples. This doesn't mean these doctors or clinics are not successful or the right place for an infertile couple but the doctor may not have the extended training that a Reproductive Endocrinologist has.

An infertility doctor that is also a Reproductive Endocrinologist has had the standard ob/gyn training as well as an additional two to three years training in Endocrinology. They have also taken both a written and an oral exam in order to become a trained Reproductive Endocrinologist.

This additional training allows them to specialize in the field of the Endocrine system that is based on hormones and the way they work. If a couple has discovered that both the man and woman have problems with their hormonal system and Reproductive Endocrinologist may be the type of doctor that they are looking for as they can both be treated at the same time by the same physician.

For other patients an infertility doctor may be one that is a gynecologist that has decided to work with infertile patients. They may have a large amount of work experience with patients and this may be the best route for many couples.

An infertility doctor is one that works primarily with infertile couples. This means they don't deliver babies or conduct yearly exams. For many couples being in an environment that is dedicated to infertility is more comfortable for them. Couples will also find that the clinic is open seven days a week to allow for easy appointments and scheduling that works with when a woman is ovulating. Whatever type of infertility doctor that is selected, be sure to interview them to find out if this is the right place for you.
