Unexplained infertility is a hard road to travel. And is it really unexplained, or have we just not found the cause yet? In this episode, we discuss how we might diagnose this complex condition better, when laparoscopy and tubal testing can be helpful, and whether IVF over IUI for these patients is likely to deliver a significantly better result. Also, is DNA fragmentation testing really worth it?

As fertility specialists, we’d love to say we can ‘end’ endo. The truth is, we can only help you manage it— and this episode is all about how. We’ll start by talking about what endo and adenomyosis are, and the somewhat murky waters of diagnosis. We'll talk about the ways we can help you get pregnant, from surgery to medication to going straight to IVF.
