Fertility examination – information to help you start a family
We are here for you if you have concerns about your fertility or are considering having children now or in the future.
A fertility examination is a good place to start. An appointment with a specialist will give you a comprehensive picture of your fertility and the factors that affect it – regardless of whether you are looking to start a family now or later.
Information and support to help you start a family
Starting a family is one of the big decisions in life. In today’s society, the decision to have children is often postponed to a later age, and the options for starting a family have grown over the years.
A person’s fertility decreases with age and can usually also be influenced through lifestyle choices. To support you in starting a family, we offer reliable information about your fertility and that of your potential partner, factors affecting fertility and the ability to have children, as well as information about when it is best to start trying for a baby at the latest, taking into account your fertility and the number of children you wish to have.
We have extensive experience and knowledge of issues affecting fertility and the ability to have children. We offer help with medical and legal matters, family planning, the psychological point of view regarding the decision to have children, and when fertility treatments are necessary due to family form.
We use the latest methods and technologies in fertility examinations, such as sperm DNA fragmentation tests and gene panel tests.

Oral health is part of fertility health
You should pay special attention to your oral health when planning and during pregnancy. Inflammation of the mouth can make fertilisation more difficult and expose you to complications during pregnancy. Hormonal changes during pregnancy can reduce oral resistance, increasing the risk of cavities and exacerbating gingivitis.
