Mini audit - Clinical assessment of female subfertility in general practice

Reflect on your clinical practice by undertaking this subfertility audit designed specifically for GPs. Subfertility affects up to one in six couples in Australia, and early recognition, comprehensive assessment, and timely referral are critical to optimising patient outcomes. This audit provides an evidence-based framework to critically review your approach to female fertility assessment, investigations, lifestyle counselling, and referral practices.

Through this course, participants will:

• Evaluate key reproductive and lifestyle factors that impact female fertility.

• Consider relevant history-taking, including menstrual, obstetric, sexual, medical, and surgical history.

• Review the appropriateness of investigations such as preconception bloods, imaging, and AMH testing.
  Reflect on patient education and counselling regarding lifestyle factors, preconception care, and timing of intercourse.

• Determine when referral to fertility specialists is indicated and review referral pathways.
  
  

This audit helps GPs identify gaps between current practice and best-practice guidelines, while earning 3 hours of CPD (1hr EA and 2hr MO)

This is a Medcast Continuing Medical Education (CME) course.
