To ensure you’re prepared for your consultation, it’s important to make sure you write down any medications, vitamins, and supplements that you are taking, including the dosage and frequency. You should also bring medical records, including any information you have about past fertility evaluations or treatments. This will make it easier to disclose this information to the doctor during your consultation. You should also consider how long you’ve been actively trying to get pregnant. If you’ve been using methods such as basal body temperature tracking or an ovulation predictor kit, you should bring this information to your appointment as well. In addition, it’s recommended to bring a list of questions you have for the expert. It can be easy to forget what you want to ask during your appointment, so writing a list is helpful. Though you don’t have to bring your partner to the initial consultation, you are both encouraged to attend. This is ideal for providing emotional support, answering questions in detail, and clearing up any misconceptions or fears about the process.
