Understanding men’s health issues as well as the growing body of research that is rapidly evolving around the male role in miscarriage allows him to assess and advise each individual couple. During a consultation Mr Gordon will address specific questions examine and recommend investigations for potentially detectable or treatable issues if appropriate. His priority is to look at the role of the male partner in pregnancy loss but collaborate and advise as to how this may impact on the female partner and their potential child. He is an advocate of natural conception but also appreciates the potential benefits and concerns in the use of assisted reproductive techniques such as IUI (intra-uterine insemination), IVF (in-vitro fertilisation) and ICSI (Intra-Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection). By collaborating with Mr Shehata’s assessment of the woman, a combined approach for both men and women can lead to an even greater chance of a successful outcome for more couples.
