Comprehensive IVF Assessment for Couples Living in Europe and Planning to Have a Child

Many couples living abroad face significant challenges in terms of time, cost and healthcare system logistics when trying to conceive. Especially in European countries, long waiting times for gynecology and infertility appointments, fragmented diagnostic tests, evaluation processes that take months, and insufficient communication with physicians often drive couples to look for alternatives in other countries.
At this point, a comprehensive evaluation program that can be completed in a short time in Istanbul becomes a strong option for couples who wish to have a baby.

The program developed by Op. Dr. Soner Düzgüner and his team is designed to offer couples living in Europe and planning a pregnancy a complete infertility check-up in just 1 day. This approach, which includes all essential evaluations from semen analysis and HSG to hormone tests and gynecological ultrasound, enables couples to obtain results quickly and to proceed with treatment planning confidently.

Why Is a Comprehensive Evaluation Necessary?

Infertility affects approximately 15% of couples. However, the underlying reason is not always the same. Female factors, male factors or a combination of both may be involved, and they must be evaluated together. In many cases, even a simple test can reveal the main reason preventing pregnancy.

For example:
• Blocked fallopian tubes are detected by HSG.
• Ovarian reserve can be assessed with a simple AMH blood test.
• Decreased sperm motility or count is revealed by semen analysis.
• Problems such as polycystic ovaries, fibroids or ovarian cysts can be detected by ultrasound.

In short, the right treatment plan requires the right starting point.

Semen Analysis and Blood Tests

Male infertility accounts for approximately half of all infertility cases. Therefore, the evaluation should always begin with the couple together. The following tests are performed:

Semen Analysis (Spermiogram)

According to World Health Organization (WHO) criteria, this test evaluates in detail:
• Sperm count
• Motility
• Morphology
reviews in detail

Even minor abnormalities in these parameters can significantly reduce the chance of natural conception. For this reason, semen analysis is considered one of the basic steps of infertility evaluation in modern IVF clinics.

HSG (Hysterosalpingography)

HSG is the gold standard test for evaluating the uterine cavity and checking whether the fallopian tubes are open or blocked. In Europe, because of long waiting times and high costs, many couples postpone this test for months, whereas in Istanbul it can be performed and reported on the same day.

If the tubes are blocked, natural pregnancy is not possible and the treatment plan is directed toward IVF.
If the tubes are open, one of the major obstacles to pregnancy has already been ruled out.

Routine Infertility Blood Tests (AMH, PRL, TSH and a Total of 12 Parameters)

One of the most important tests for assessing ovarian function is the AMH level.
A low AMH value indicates reduced ovarian reserve and makes time a critical factor in treatment.

Additionally:
• TSH (thyroid hormones)
• Prolactin (PRL)
• FSH, LH, E2
• Vitamin D
• Glucose–insulin balance

• Glucose–insulin balance

In Dr. Soner Düzgüner’s program, these tests are performed and processed on the same day to allow for rapid interpretation.

Gynecological Ultrasound

Ultrasound allows real-time assessment of the ovarian reserve and reproductive organs. With ultrasound it is possible to
evaluate:
• Polycystic ovary appearance
• Fibroids
• Endometrial polyps
• Endometrioma (chocolate cysts)
• Ovarian masses
• Endometrial thickness

and many other critical findings in detail.

Why Is It Advantageous to Have the Evaluation in Istanbul?

There are several main reasons why couples living in Europe prefer Türkiye:

1️⃣ Fast appointments and same-day results

While you may have to wait 1–3 months just for an HSG appointment in Europe, in Istanbul it can be performed on the same day.

2️⃣ More affordable costs

Test packages are generally much more economical compared with many European countries.

3️⃣ Direct communication with the physician

In Türkiye, the patient–doctor relationship is often more personal, direct and explanatory.

4️⃣ All tests completed under one roof

While tests are often scattered across different centers in Europe, in Istanbul the entire process is coordinated from a single point.

5️⃣ Rapid start of treatment

If IVF is required, couples can move quickly to treatment planning.

Who Can Benefit from This Evaluation Program?

• Couples who have been trying to conceive for more than 1 year
• Women over 35 years of age
• Women with irregular menstrual cycles
• Those with a history of miscarriage or biochemical pregnancy
• Women with suspected polycystic ovary syndrome
• Couples with previous failed IVF treatments
• Couples where male factor infertility is suspected
• Individuals living abroad who want to get results quickly

This program is particularly designed for Turkish couples living in Europe, as both travel and clinical processes can be coordinated much more efficiently.
