Color Doppler Scans
At Eva IVF & Women’s Centre, we understand that fertility isn’t just about hormones or anatomy — circulation and blood flow play a vital role in reproductive success. That’s why we offer Color Doppler Scans, an advanced imaging tool that helps us assess vascular health within the reproductive system.
This painless, non-invasive scan adds an important layer of information to traditional ultrasound, helping us better understand why conception may not be occurring or why previous treatments may have failed.
What Is a Color Doppler Scan?
Color Doppler Scan is an advanced ultrasound method that displays blood flow patterns, speed, and direction, helping evaluate vascular health and detect abnormalities in real-time. It displays different flow patterns as colored images, giving a clear picture of how blood is moving through specific organs.
In fertility diagnostics, it helps evaluate the uterus, ovaries, endometrium, and testes, offering insight into the conditions that support egg development, embryo implantation, and overall reproductive health.
Why Blood Flow Matters in Fertility
Healthy blood circulation is essential for:
• Proper endometrial lining development
• Optimal follicle growth and ovulation
• Healthy testicular function and sperm production
• Reducing the risk of miscarriage or failed embryo transfer
Even subtle disruptions in blood flow can significantly impact fertility — which makes Doppler assessment a key part of your fertility work-up.
Who Needs a Color Doppler Scan?
We recommend Doppler scanning for:
✔ Women preparing for IVF or IUI cycles
✔ Women with a history of implantation failure or thin endometrium
✔ Men with suspected varicocele or poor sperm health
✔ Individuals with unexplained infertility
✔ Patients undergoing repeated IVF failures or early pregnancy losses
✔ Anyone needing detailed uterine and ovarian blood flow mapping
Types of Doppler Scans in Fertility Medicine
1. Uterine Artery Doppler
• Evaluates how well the endometrial lining can support embryo implantation before transfer.
2. Ovarian Doppler
• Helps predict response to ovulation induction
3. Endometrial Blood Flow Assessment
• Crucial for enhancing embryo implantation success in assisted reproductive technology cycles.
4. Testicular Doppler (for men)
• Useful in diagnosing causes of low sperm quality or count
What Sets Eva IVF Apart?

How the Scan Is Performed
• Conducted in a private, comfortable setting
• May be transvaginal for women or scrotal for men, depending on the area of focus
• Takes about 20–30 minutes, with no downtime afterward
💡 You can return to your regular routine immediately after the scan.
