Deciding to spend money on another fertility test can feel hard—especially if you’ve already done so many. But HHV-6A testing is different because it looks for something normal fertility tests never check: a hidden virus in the lining of the uterus that can block pregnancy.
In one major study, HHV-6A was found in 43 out of 100 women with unexplained infertility, but in 0 out of 100 fertile women. This means almost half of women who still don't have answers might have a hidden issue that regular tests completely miss. If that's the case, finding it could save you time, money, and emotional stress from repeated failed cycles.
Covee makes this type of testing easier by checking endometrial cells inside menstrual fluid, so you don’t need a painful biopsy or a clinic visit. It gives you information that can help you and your doctor decide your next steps—before spending thousands more on IUI or IVF.
Instead of wondering “What if we’re missing something?”, HHV-6A testing gives you clearer answers so you can move forward with more confidence.
If you’re thinking about value, the next question many women ask is:
“Does HHV-6A affect early pregnancy or miscarriage?”
