Your Path to Pregnancy Starts With Real Answers

The traditional answer is "12 months under 35, 6 months over 35," but we don't make you wait that long to be heard. If you've been trying for 6 months without success — at any age — or if you have known issues like irregular cycles, PCOS, endometriosis, thyroid problems, or a history of miscarriage, a consultation is absolutely appropriate. Preconception consultations are also one of the best investments you can make if you're planning to start trying soon.

Yes — and we believe this is one of the most important reasons our success rates are what they are. Roughly 40–50% of infertility involves male factor, yet many fertility workups never thoroughly evaluate the male partner. Dr. Redmond has advanced men's health training through a Harvard-affiliated program and coordinates male hormonal and sperm health evaluation alongside your care.

We do not perform IVF or IUI in our office. Our focus is identifying and treating the underlying hormonal, metabolic, and lifestyle factors that prevent conception — restoring natural fertility whenever possible. Many of our patients conceive without ever needing assisted reproductive technology. When IVF or IUI is genuinely needed, we coordinate referrals to trusted reproductive endocrinologists and continue supporting you through the process.

Both conditions are common contributors to infertility and both are areas of focus for our practice. For PCOS, we address insulin resistance, hormonal balance, ovulation, and metabolic health — not just suppress cycles with medication. For endometriosis, we combine medical management with nutrition, inflammation reduction, and hormonal support to improve both pain and fertility outcomes.

We do not accept insurance, which allows us to spend 60–120 minutes per appointment getting to the root cause rather than working within the limits of an insurance-driven system. We accept HSA and FSA payments, and we provide claim forms for potential reimbursement. Initial consultation is $250, with lab testing typically ranging from $150–$800 depending on what's needed.

Yes. Dr. Redmond is licensed for telemedicine in South Dakota, North Dakota, Nebraska, Iowa, Montana, Minnesota, and Wyoming, with licensure expanding to Florida and Arizona soon. You can also travel to our Sioux Falls clinic for in-person care. Fertility care often involves cycle monitoring and labs, which we coordinate with local labs near you.

Our patients achieve greater than 70% pregnancy success rates, and our outcomes continue to improve as we refine our protocols. Success rates vary based on individual factors including age, underlying conditions, and how long you've been trying — all of which we discuss honestly during your consultation.

Absolutely. Many patients work with us alongside their existing care team. Our integrative, root-cause approach complements traditional reproductive medicine, and we're happy to coordinate with your other providers.

We continue to support you through early pregnancy — monitoring hormones, optimizing nutrition, and ensuring a healthy foundation — and then transition you to your OB/GYN or midwife for prenatal care. Many of our patients return for postpartum hormone support after delivery.

This is an important question. Standard testosterone replacement can actually suppress sperm production, so fertility optimization in men requires a careful, specialized approach. Dr. Redmond's men's health training allows her to optimize hormones in ways that support — rather than compromise — your fertility goals. This is exactly why a thorough evaluation matters before starting any therapy.
