A、Five Inspection Steps to Get Started：
- Following the third day of the menstrual cycle, confirm ovulatory function, including the presence of the follicle-stimulating hormone.
- After three days of abstinence, it is more accurate to check the semen.
- You are recommended to abstain from sexual activity three days before the intercourse test, which is scheduled for the day before ovulation.
- Hysterosalpingography can be used to determine how the uterine cavity and fallopian tubes are structured before ovulation takes place.
- Diagnostic laparoscopy is scheduled for the follicular cycle before ovulation.
B. Further Checks
- Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH)blood test for prolactin
- Endometrial biopsy in the luteal phase
- Check for immune problems and anti-sperm antibodies in both sexes.
- Microbial culture of cervix and endometrium
- Sperm function tests, such as egg pellucida and sperm binding.
