A reproductive medicine office visit for a new patient is a first-time visit with a reproductive medicine specialist. Reproductive medicine is a branch of medicine and healthcare that deals with fertility (including treating infertility), issues related to puberty, menopause, contraception (birth control), and certain sexual issues. A new-patient office visit is needed if you have never seen this doctor and would be new to the practice, or it has been over 3 years since you last saw this doctor.
