Testing & Fertility Services
The first time you meet with Dr. Stoelk, you begin to understand why he’s so successful. He doesn’t start you off with some expensive testing, surgery or set of unnecessary procedures. Instead, he begins by talking and listening. By understanding your needs he can often ascertain if you’re one of the many couples who simply need a quick bit of basic fertility care. Comprehensive Fertility Testing helps speed things up and lower patient costs. These tests can include on-site andrology lab, hormone assay lab, ultrasound and more.
Comprehensive Fertility Testing is done to pinpoint the reason for infertility. After Dr. Stoelk understands your situation and reviews any previous tests, you’ll work together on a plan for further testing and appropriate treatments. Hormone analysis lab, andrology lab, IVF embryology lab, and ultrasound are all available on-site making testing and treatment as convenient as possible–and less costly.
Ovulation Testing helps pinpoint one of the frequent causes of infertility and miscarriages – ovulation problems. Ultrasound and hormone testing are critical to understanding how to use the best medications to correct these problems, maximizing your chances of success each month.
Ovulation Therapy is used when more aggressive treatment is necessary. Natural hormones (FSH), which stimulate the ovaries are given in exaggerated amounts, producing several eggs plus an ideal implantation site. This treatment, requires crucial expertise.
Sperm Testing is best done at true infertility centers such as our on-site andrology lab. Accurate testing will then lead to the best available treatment.
Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) is a very common, simple treatment for many sperm problems. The results can be very positive. When sperm counts are low, swim poorly or antibodies exist, the sperm are concentrated and then placed directly into the uterus. A greater number of sperm arrive in fallopian tubes to fertilize the egg.
Donor Insemination is one of the final basic options. It is the use of screened and selected donor sperm, also available through Northwest Fertility Center.
