Fertility Assessment and Diagnostic Tests

Your fertility specialist may recommend blood hormone or semen analysis tests to determine the cause(s) of infertility. Some of these tests may be covered under Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) while others may not be.
Please discuss your diagnostic test plan with your fertility specialist and feel free to seek clarity on provincial and insurance coverage. Be informed on the tests that may require out-of-pocket expense.
