Infertility & Subfertility

Infertility & Subfertility

Compassionate Pathways to Parenthood

Dr. Neha Dagade is a specialist in Reproductive Medicine (IVF) and Fertility-Enhancing Endoscopy. She believes that every couple’s journey is unique, requiring a blend of advanced medical science, surgical precision, and emotional support. Her goal is to identify the root causes of subfertility and provide evidence-based solutions to help couples achieve a successful pregnancy.

Understanding Infertility

Infertility is generally defined as the inability to conceive after 12 months of regular, unprotected intercourse (or 6 months for women over the age of 35). Subfertility refers to a delay in conception or a reduced level of fertility, rather than a total inability to conceive.
At our center, we move beyond the "one-size-fits-all" approach, conducting thorough diagnostic evaluations for both partners to create a personalized roadmap.

Comprehensive Diagnostic Services

Before beginning treatment, Dr. Dagade performs a detailed fertility workup:

  • Ovarian Reserve Testing: Assessing egg quantity through AMH blood tests and Antral Follicle Counts (AFC) via ultrasound.
  • Tubal Patency Tests: Ensuring the fallopian tubes are open using HSG (X-ray) or HyCoSy (Ultrasound).
  • Advanced Semen Analysis: Evaluating male factor fertility, including sperm count, motility, and morphology.
  • Follicular Monitoring: Serial ultrasounds to track egg development and predict the window of ovulation.

Fertility-Enhancing Treatments

We offer a spectrum of treatments ranging from simple interventions to advanced assisted reproductive technologies (ART):

1. Ovulation Induction & Timed Intercourse

The simplest form of treatment involving oral or injectable medications to stimulate the ovaries to produce healthy eggs, combined with expert guidance on the best time for conception.

2. Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)

A procedure where processed and concentrated sperm is placed directly inside the woman's uterus around the time of ovulation. This is often effective for mild male factor infertility or unexplained subfertility.

3. Fertility-Enhancing Surgery (The "Keyhole" Advantage)

As an expert in Gynaec-Endoscopy, Dr. Dagade specializes in surgical corrections that can restore natural fertility:

  • Laparoscopy: To treat endometriosis, remove ovarian cysts, or clear blocked tubes.
  • Hysteroscopy: To remove uterine polyps, fibroids, or septums that prevent embryo implantation.
4. Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART/IVF)

For more complex cases, we provide comprehensive IVF support including:

  • In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF): Fertilizing eggs with sperm in a laboratory setting.
  • ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection): Injecting a single sperm directly into an egg, ideal for severe male infertility.
