Knowing when to see a fertility specialist can help couples get clarity and support earlier in their journey.

Couples under 35 are generally advised to seek help after 12 months of trying. Women 35 and older may benefit from evaluation after 6 months. Earlier consultation is also recommended for irregular cycles, known conditions, or history of miscarriage.
