Female Fertility Assessment in Gurgaon

If you've been trying for a baby and the months keep passing, the hardest part is usually not knowing what's going on. A fertility assessment at TheFertilife is meant to end that part. Dr. Anshika Lekhi runs it herself — she's a gynaecologist and infertility expert, thirteen-plus years into this work — and she'll sit with your history, your hormone bloods (AMH, FSH, and LH) and a transvaginal ultrasound to read your ovarian reserve and the rest of your reproductive health. For women trying to conceive in Gurgaon and across NCR, the focus is helping you understand where you stand before you commit to anything beyond that.

What the Assessment Covers?

It starts with your history, not a blood draw. Dr. Lekhi wants to know your situation first — that's what determines which tests are actually worth running.

From there, most assessments include the following:

• Blood work for AMH, FSH, LH, thyroid (TSH), and prolactin
• A transvaginal ultrasound to count antral follicles and check the structure of the uterus and ovaries
• An HSG (hysterosalpingogram) if your history suggests a tubal issue — this confirms whether the fallopian tubes are open
• A semen analysis to assess your partner's sperm count, motility, and overall fertility health.

There's no fixed panel everyone walks in and gets. The call on which tests you need is made with you.

Why Timing Matters?

Some of these tests are cycle-dependent.

• Anytime: AMH, TSH, and prolactin don't shift much across the month, so they can be drawn on any day.
• Day 2 or 3: FSH and LH tell the most about ovarian response when checked right at the start of a cycle.
• Early follicular phase: The transvaginal ultrasound works best here — follicle counts are clearest before ovulation approaches.
• Day 7 to 12: If a tube check is needed, the HSG sits here, after your period has finished, when it gives the cleanest read on whether things are open.

Running everything in one go isn't usually how this works. Tests get planned around your cycle.

What AMH Actually Tells You?

AMH gives an estimate of egg quantity — not quality. A high number won't promise you a pregnancy. A low number won't rule one out.

Dr. Lekhi treats it as one piece of evidence among several, read against everything else she knows about your situation. On its own, it's not a verdict.

When Should You Get a Female Fertility Assessment?

People always want a rule here, so here's the one most doctors use. Trying for a baby under the age of 35? Give it a year of regular, unprotected sex before you read anything into it not working — bodies aren't clockwork, and a year of trying genuinely isn't unusual.

Hit 35 and that patience shrinks to roughly six months, mostly because time matters more now. Past 40, Dr Lekhi would rather just see you than have you count months on a calendar.

None of that holds, though, if something's already off. A reason to come in sooner beats any waiting period. Get in if any of these are true for you:

• Periods that come irregularly, run very short, or go missing
• A known or suspected case of PCOS, endometriosis, or a thyroid disorder
• A pelvic infection, surgery, or miscarriage somewhere in your past
• A family history of early menopause or fertility trouble
