With advanced diagnostics, evidence-based treatments, and a deeply compassionate approach, Dr. Lekovich helps patients take clear, confident steps forward—no matter where they are on their fertility journey.
What Is Primary Infertility?
Primary infertility is defined as the inability to conceive after 12 months (or 6 months for women over 35) of regular, unprotected intercourse—when no prior pregnancies have occurred or timed insemination with donor sperm. It can be caused by a wide range of factors in either partner, and early diagnosis can significantly improve outcomes.
Common causes of primary infertility include:
Ovulatory disorders (like PCOS)
Low ovarian reserve or egg quality
Blocked fallopian tubes
Male factor infertility (low sperm count or motility)
Endometriosis or uterine abnormalities
Unexplained infertility
What Is Secondary Infertility?
Secondary infertility refers to difficulty conceiving or carrying a pregnancy to term after having had one or more previous pregnancies, regardless of the outcome. Many patients are surprised to face new fertility challenges, even after a healthy birth in the past.
Possible causes of secondary infertility include:
Age-related decline in fertility
Changes in reproductive health (e.g., fibroids, endometriosis)
Hormonal imbalances
C-section scarring or complications from prior births
Male partner fertility changes
Dr. Lekovich understands the emotional toll of secondary infertility—especially when expectations are shaped by past pregnancies—and provides empathetic, effective care to help patients navigate this often-overlooked condition.
Diagnostic Testing & Evaluation
As a board-certified reproductive endocrinologist, Dr. Lekovich begins with a thorough fertility evaluation for both partners, including:
Hormonal testing (FSH, AMH, LH, TSH, prolactin)
Ovarian reserve and antral follicle count
Hysterosalpingogram (HSG) to assess fallopian tubes
Transvaginal ultrasound for uterine health
Semen analysis for male partners
Genetic or immunological testing (when indicated)
This comprehensive approach ensures an accurate diagnosis and allows for a targeted treatment plan.
Fertility Treatment Options
Depending on your specific diagnosis, Dr. Lekovich offers a full spectrum of fertility treatments, including:
Ovulation induction with timed intercourse
Intrauterine insemination (IUI)
In vitro fertilization (IVF)
Egg and sperm donation
Fertility surgery for tubal or uterine conditions
Preimplantation genetic testing (PGT)
Each treatment plan is tailored to your age, medical history, reproductive goals, and emotional needs. Dr. Lekovich emphasizes transparent communication, education, and compassionate care at every stage.
