Infertility is the inability to conceive after one year of trying. Nearly one in eight couples who desire to have a baby is infertile. Several simple tests can identify the cause of infertility, which is just as often found in the male as it is in the female. Many times multiple causes can be diagnosed. Only rarely, no apparent reason for infertility can be found.
Typically, there are several treatment options and these are discussed in depth with the couple who participates in the decision making process. At our Center thetreatment is designed to fit the specific medical and philosophical needs of the couple. The course of treatment is closely monitored and evaluated. If not effective, the treatment is adjusted and advanced. In many instances, the problem can be corrected with a lifestyle adjustment or simple treatment. With the newest advances in medical technology and science, many previously untreatable problems can now be corrected.

Advanced Reproductive Health Centers
In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a method of assisted reproduction in which a man's sperm is combined with a woman's egg in a laboratory dish.
Fertilization occurs in the dish and the resulting embryo is transferred to the uterus to develop naturally. IVF has been successfully done in the United States for 18 years. Over 45,000 babies have been born (just in the United States) as a result of IVF.
Children resulting from IVF have the same incidence of birth defects as children conceived without medical intervention. The process may seem a little artificial at times, but we can assure you that these babies will kick, spit-up, scream and keep you awake at nights just like any other baby.
It is a fact that over six million people in the United States alone are affected by infertility and many of those people deal with the enormous stress related to the condition. The incredible staff at the Advanced Health Reproductive Center (Chicago-IVF) take an initiative to reduce the stress level. We work together with the patient and their partner as a team to develop a treatment plan that will make the best use of the resources available to solve the problem as quickly, safely and inexpensively as possible.
Infertility not only affects females but males as well. Infertility is a condition that inhibits the ability to conceive and deliver a child. Infertility is the inability to conceive after one year of trying with unprotected intercourse for couples in which the female is under 35 and six months of trying for couples in which the female is over 35.
Approximately one in six couples are affected by infertility and there are a number of factors, both male and female, that can cause the condition. In fact, in only one-third of infertility cases is the cause attributed to the female. It is a fact that surprisingly one-third is attributed to the male. The final one-third of the cases can be either be attributed to both as a cause or simply unknown.
Once the cause of infertility has been determined, a plan can be customized for the patient to fit their unique situation and move them along on the path to conceiving a
child. In fact, nearly 90% of infertility cases are treatable with medical therapies such as drug treatment, surgical repair of reproductive organs and assisted reproductive
techniques such as in vitro fertilization.
