Fertility treatment options
If you have received a fertility diagnosis then you probably have a good idea of what treatment you might need to help you to conceive. However, if you have only recently discovered that you are having a problem, then why not use the ask a question feature and our team will direct you as to which fertility treatment options that you should investigate.
IVF
In vitro fertilisation (IVF) is an assisted reproduction technique that helps couples overcome infertility issues.
Egg freezing
There has been a dramatic improvement in the technique of egg freezing since the introduction of ‘Vitrification’ – the fast freezing of eggs.
Surrogacy
For some women that are suffering with infertility the cause may be an incapable womb or that they have had a hysterectomy.
IVF with donor eggs or sperm
For some couples, their only chance of achieving pregnancy could be with the use of either a donor egg or with donor sperm.
Embryo testing
With advances in genetic testing, there are a number of procedure such as Pre Implantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD), Pre Implantation Genetic Screening and Pre Implantation Tissue Typing (PTT) that may help your chances of a successful pregnancy.
IUI
IUI is an assisted reproduction technique that places sperm directly in to the womb, in the hope that it swims to meet an egg and fertilizes. The process only takes about 10 minutes and is a painless procedure. The prepared sperm is inserted directly in to the womb via a catheter.
