The Center for Fertility and Reproductive Health at Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates
Welcome to the Center for Fertility and Reproductive Health at Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates, where compassionate and expert care are brought together with the latest in fertility treatments - including In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) - to provide comprehensive services for patients challenged by infertility. For nearly 20 years, The Center has been helping couples achieve their dreams of a healthy, successful pregnancy.
Infertility affects nearly fifteen percent of couples during childbearing years and the diagnosis can be due to female fertility factors, male fertility factors or a combination of factors from both partners. The causes of female infertility may include ovulation disorders, blocked fallopian tubes and other problems with the uterus or cervix. Male infertility is most commonly related to sperm abnormalities. Approximately 25 percent of couples will receive a diagnosis of "unexplained infertility" which means the specific cause of infertility can not be determined.
To help individuals and couples trying to conceive, Harvard Vanguard offers a range of diagnostic testing services including:
- Comprehensive hormonal blood testing
- Male infertility testing, including advanced semen
- Advanced diagnostic testing including sonohysterogram, hysterosalpingograms, and ultrasound studies
- Evaluation of benign gynecological disorders that affect fertility such as uterine fibroids, endometriosis and polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS)
