Skip to content At Womens Health Group Chicago, we understand that your journey to parenthood can sometimes be laden with challenges. That’s why our team of dedicated healthcare professionals is specialized in solving puzzles related to fertility issues. Through our advanced fertility testing and diagnosis services, we aim to identify any potential problems that may hinder the conception process. Using state-of-the-art technology for ultrasound imaging, hormone level testing, and other diagnostic procedures, we are committed to uncover the root cause of infertility in an empathetic and supportive environment.
When naturally occurring ovulation appears problematic or irregular, our expert team steps forward with solutions like Ovulation Induction treatment. This procedure involves administering medications designed to stimulate the ovaries into producing more eggs resulting in increased chances of pregnancy. Coupled with this process is ongoing monitoring which provides crucial insights about when ovulation will occur thereby optimizing timing for conception.
The path towards achieving a successful pregnancy might require additional support such as intrauterine insemination (IUI). At Women’s Health Group Chicago – Oakland Branch, we offer IUI as one of many techniques used as part of a comprehensive intervention strategy tailored towards personal needs. Known for being less invasive than some other assisted reproductive technologies; it facilitates higher sperm count reaching the fallopian tubes augmenting possibilities of fertilization.
For those who need more intensive infertility treatments, you’ll find world-class care from our skilled team specializing in In-vitro Fertilization (IVF) protocols right here in Oakland! During IVF procedures at WHG-Chicago – this region’s premier fertility clinic, eggs are retrieved from the ovaries and combined with sperm in a lab environment to facilitate fertilization, facilitating higher pregnancy chances for couples struggling with infertility.
While not always necessary, reproductive surgery can sometimes offer the most effective route toward resolving infertility issues. Pioneers in this specialty, we’re skilled at performing surgical procedures targeting conditions or complications that might interfere with natural conception like endometriosis or blocked fallopian tubes. Guided by continuous research and innovative technologies; our team provides safe, successful outcomes for those who need them.
Above all else, we understand navigating your way through potential treatments may feel overwhelming which is why emotional support forms an integral part of our approach. At WHG – Chicago Oakland Branch we provide counseling services helping patients cope managing stress often associated during this difficult phase. Offering individual as well as group therapy options overall wellbeing remains a priority – while you make informed decision about stepping towards parenthood!
