Fertility treatment

Trying for a baby isn’t always easy. Many individuals and couples require fertility support, but thankfully, there are many ways a fertility specialist can help you overcome these obstacles and fall pregnant. If you have been trying for a long time, we can guide you through several advanced fertility treatments and assisted conception options.

Do you need fertility treatment?

While trying for a baby can take time, even in the best circumstances, sometimes the delay can be an indication of fertility issues. While this can feel disheartening, it is often something that can be worked through with professional help. There are many reasons for fertility treatment — you might benefit from a chat with one of our fertility specialists if:

you’re under 35 and have been trying to fall pregnant for 12 months or more
you’re over 35 and have been trying for 6 months or more
you have a medical condition that may impact your fertility
you have known fertility issues (including male and female infertility)
you would like to consider freezing your eggs for later use
you would like a check-up to help plan for the best time to have a baby

Our fertility specialists provide quality advice to help you understand the different factors that affect fertility. We take a detailed medical history and fertility assessment, including a range of fertility tests, before tailoring an individualised care plan for you based on appropriate investigations.

There may be multiple suitable treatment options for you which your fertility specialist will take you through before creating a personalised care plan that works for you and gives you the best chance of falling pregnant. Many patients fall pregnant with guidance or simple fertility treatments and do not require more complex interventions, like in vitro fertilisation (IVF).

Our fertility treatment options

We offer a range of tailored fertility services designed to give each patient who enters our clinic the best possible chance to leave with a special bundle in their arms.

In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF)

In IVF, we stimulate your ovaries and retrieve numerous eggs in a simple procedure and then attempt to fertilise them with a sample of sperm. We attempt to create multiple viable embryos, implanting a successful one directly into the uterus and freezing any others.

Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI)

ICSI is a similar process to IVF treatment, but instead of using multiple sperm to try and fertilise an egg, a single sperm is injected directly into the centre of the egg. This attempts to overcome male factor infertility issues and increase the chance of fertilisation occurring.

Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)

IUI is a less invasive alternative to IVF treatment, involving artificially placing washed sperm directly into the uterus around the time of ovulation, hoping that the sperm will enter the fallopian tube and fertilise an egg. IUI is often used for unexplained infertility or in the case of using donor sperm.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)

PRP involves the patient’s own blood being injected into the uterine cavity. It’s said to help improve ovarian function and the receptivity of the uterus. PRP is a complementary therapy used with other fertility treatments to improve the likelihood of falling pregnant.
