My basic workup includes the following: ovulation predictor kit OR BBT, HSG, endometrial biposy (to help confirm ovulation), post coital test with ureaplasm culture, semenanalysis. I add TSH, Prolactin and possibly other blood testsw if someone isn't getting regular cycles or ovulating.

Hope this helps and write back anytime for more information.
