Unexplained infertility — Newport Beach, CA

Unexplained infertility means the standard workup — ovulation, tubes, semen analysis, ovarian reserve — found no cause. It is a diagnosis of exclusion, and it is common. It does not mean nothing is wrong; it means today's tests can't see what is.

The evidence-backed path is usually stepped: a few cycles of ovulation induction with IUI, then IVF if those fail. Reasonable clinics differ on how fast to escalate — what matters is that the plan has a defined number of attempts and a decision point, not open-ended repetition.

• How many IUI cycles before IVF, and what success rate do you expect from each step for my age?
• At what point would you change the plan?

Costs are a first-class question for treatment — see what IVF costs and how to pay less and whether insurance must cover treatment in California.
