Infertility

Many couples desiring a family face the problem of infertility- you may have tried to conceive but have not been able to do so. Couples are considered infertile after one year of unprotected intercourse (Definition of infertility may vary depending on the patient’s age and circumstances). It is estimated that one in six couples will be infertile. At Mission Ob/Gyn we are committed to providing you with comprehensive evaluation and treatment for these issues.
