Care for what comes before

Whether you are thinking about pregnancy, just starting to try or wondering why it is taking longer than expected, you do not have to figure it out on your own.

Fertility is more than a single lab or cycle. We look at your cycle history, symptoms, reproductive health and metabolic health together, then build the next steps around what we find.

For all care, we also look at lifestyle factors like diet, sleep, movement, and supplements or medications when indicated.

What to expect

  1. Start here

    Your first visit

    We start with the full picture: your cycle history, symptoms, health history, medications, pregnancy history, what you have already tried and what you want help with.

  2. When indicated

    Testing & evaluation

    Your clinician may recommend labs or other testing based on your history, such as thyroid, metabolic or reproductive testing, to better understand what may be affecting your cycle or fertility.

  3. Between visits

    Understand your cycle

    When useful, we will help you track your cycle and ovulation so we are working from your patterns, not just an app prediction.

  4. Next steps

    A plan built around you

    We bring what we learn together into a clear plan, which may include preconception care, cycle support, treatment, additional evaluation or follow-up.

  5. If you need more

    Referral & continued care

    If reproductive endocrinology or another specialist becomes the right next step, we will help coordinate the referral so your records and work-up move with you.

No. You can come in before you start trying, when you want to better understand your cycle, or anytime you have concerns. We will help determine what evaluation makes sense based on your history.

Yes. Many fertility and preconception visits can be completed virtually across North Carolina. We will let you know when in-person care is needed.
