Family Planning & Infertility
Support as you plan for what's next.
Whether you're planning ahead or you've been trying to conceive without success, having a knowledgeable partner makes the journey less overwhelming. Preconception counseling helps you enter pregnancy as healthy as possible, and an initial fertility evaluation can identify what might be getting in the way.
Preconception visits cover your health history, medications, nutrition, and any conditions worth optimizing before pregnancy. If you've been trying to conceive, Dr. Fan can begin a fertility evaluation — reviewing cycles, timing, and initial testing for both partners where appropriate.
Dr. Fan will be honest about scope. This is a comprehensive OB-GYN practice, not a specialized fertility (IVF) center. When advanced reproductive treatment is the right next step, she'll guide you and refer you to a trusted reproductive endocrinologist so you're never left figuring it out alone.
Understanding family planning & fertility care
Family planning covers the full picture of preparing for pregnancy — from optimizing your health before you conceive to understanding your cycle and timing. For those facing challenges, an initial fertility evaluation looks at what might be affecting your ability to get pregnant.
Many fertility questions can be addressed right here, in a comprehensive OB-GYN setting. When more specialized care is needed, Dr. Fan connects you to the right expert — with a warm handoff, not a dead end.
Who this care is for
This care is for you if you're:
- Planning to become pregnant and want to prepare
- Managing a health condition you want optimized before pregnancy
- Having trouble conceiving after several months of trying
- Wondering about your cycle, timing, or fertility
- Looking for guidance on next steps after trying on your own
- Seeking preconception advice after a previous pregnancy loss
Wherever you are in the journey, you don't have to navigate it without guidance.
How we evaluate it
Preconception visits review your health history, medications, nutrition, and any conditions worth optimizing before pregnancy. If you've been trying to conceive, Dr. Fan can begin a fertility evaluation — reviewing cycles, timing, and initial testing for both partners where appropriate.
She'll be clear about what this practice can address directly and when a referral to a reproductive endocrinologist is the right move.
What support looks like
Support may include:
- Preconception counseling to optimize your health
- Guidance on cycle tracking and timing
- Initial fertility evaluation for you and, where appropriate, your partner
- Management of conditions affecting fertility
- Referral to a trusted reproductive endocrinologist when advanced care like IVF is needed
The goal is to move you forward with clarity — and to make sure you always know the next step.
Whether you're just starting to plan or facing a harder road, you shouldn't have to figure it out alone.
