Been Feeling like Kate and Toby from the TV Show “This Is Us?”

Are You Close to 40 or Older?  

Do You Have PCOS?  

Are You Overweight?  

Low Male Sperm Count?

“This is Us” – Season Opener

​Kate and Toby are struggling to make sense of their recent miscarriage. They seek advice and meet with a Fertility Doctor, who initially turns them down because Kate has PCOS and is overweight. Is this you or do you know someone struggling with a similar situation?

PCOS aka Polycystic Ovary Syndrome is a reproductive endocrine disorder of chronic anovulation and hyperandrogenism. PCOS affects approximately 4-6% of reproductive age women and is one of the most common endocrine disorders affecting women.

Trouble Getting Pregnant – Consider Male Factor Infertility: Male infertility is common and affects about 40% of infertile couples. Diagnosis of male infertility is a simple test, which only requires a semen sample. At Dominion Fertility we routinely perform semen analysis and are experts in our field.​

At Dominion Fertility, we believe most infertility cases are treatable and we like to exhaust all our efforts before giving anyone bad news. We evaluate each case separately and don’t have an age or weight cut off. However, both these factors can lower your chances, but we like to give everyone a fair chance at Dominion Fertility and “This is Us.”
