Women undergoing infertility evaluation may visit either the Department of Gynecology or the Department of Reproductive Medicine. If the hospital where the patient seeks care has a highly specialized division of departments, she may choose to consult the Department of Reproductive Medicine; physicians in this department typically possess more extensive expertise and research experience in female infertility, enabling more targeted and potentially more effective treatment. Conversely, if the hospital does not have a dedicated Department of Reproductive Medicine due to less granular departmental specialization, patients may instead consult the Department of Gynecology, where gynecologists are also qualified to perform relevant infertility evaluations and treatments. We hope this information is helpful. Wishing you good health!
