And because a person can have several different factors playing a role in infertility, even if they do have a type of infertility a gynecologist can treat, their doctor can easily miss other forms of infertility.

One in eight couples has trouble getting or staying pregnant. Yet many struggle for years without help. Only about 11% of people with fertility difficulties seek assistance from an infertility specialist. For some, it’s because they worry that a fertility specialist will cost too much. Others avoid fertility treatment because they think doing so means they are giving up. Don’t allow fear to color your decisions. Hiring an infertility specialist may be the best decision you ever make.
