Abstract

Diagnostic evaluation for infertility in women should be conducted in a systematic, expeditious, and cost-effective manner to identify all the relevant factors with an initial emphasis on the least invasive methods for detecting the most common causes of infertility. The purpose of this committee opinion is to provide a critical review of the current methods and procedures for the evaluation of in fertile women, and it replaces the document of the same name, last published in 2015 (Fertil Steril 2015;103:e44–50). This guidance is intended for any provider evaluating women for infertility.
