Understanding Infertility: Diagnosis and Testing at AK Diagnostics



Overview

Infertility can be a deeply emotional and challenging journey for couples trying to conceive. According to global statistics, about 10–15% of couples face difficulties in conceiving, and timely diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment.

At AK Diagnostics, we provide comprehensive testing and expert guidance to help identify the underlying causes of infertility, supporting your journey towards parenthood.

 

What is Infertility?

Infertility is more common than many people think, and early diagnosis can make a significant difference in treatment success.

Infertility is defined as the inability to conceive after one year of regular, unprotected sexual intercourse. In some cases, women over the age of 35 may be considered infertile after six months of trying. Infertility can affect both men and women, with causes ranging from hormonal imbalances to structural issues or underlying medical conditions.

Common causes in women include:

  • Ovulation disorders
  • Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
  • Fallopian tube blockage
  • Endometriosis 

In men, infertility may result from:

  • Low sperm count or poor sperm quality 
  • Hormonal imbalances 
  • Obstructions in the reproductive tract


Often, infertility arises from a combination of factors, making comprehensive testing essential.



Diagnostic Testing for Infertility at AK Diagnostics

At AK Diagnostics, our goal is to provide accurate, reliable, and timely test results, enabling your doctor to make informed treatment decisions. Our PathLab services include a wide range of tests to investigate the causes of infertility. 

1. Hormonal Testing

Hormonal imbalance is a leading cause of infertility in both men and women. Our laboratory offers precise assays for:

  • FSH, LH, and Estradiol – Assess ovulation and ovarian function
  • Prolactin and Thyroid hormones – Detect conditions that interfere with fertility
  • Testosterone and other male hormones – Evaluate male reproductive health

2. Semen Analysis

For men, semen analysis is a cornerstone of fertility evaluation. This test examines sperm count, motility, morphology, and volume, helping to identify potential issues affecting conception. Our lab ensures highly accurate results with modern equipment and trained technicians.

3. Genetic and Advanced Testing

Some cases of infertility are linked to genetic factors or advanced reproductive disorders. Our PathLab can perform karyotyping, genetic mutation analysis, and advanced hormone profiling to uncover hidden causes of infertility.
