What this care involves
In vitro fertilisation (IVF) combines eggs and sperm in a laboratory. If embryos develop, a fertility team may arrange embryo transfer or freezing as appropriate.
When to seek a consultation
Consider a consultation if IVF has been suggested, prior treatment has been unsuccessful or you want to understand which investigations are needed before referral.
What an assessment may include
The fertility team considers factors such as age, previous treatment, medical history and sperm and egg-related findings. Ask which tests may change the plan.
Options and next steps
A consultation can clarify expected appointments, costs to confirm with the centre, risks and alternatives. IVF laboratory services and procedures are arranged through a suitable fertility facility.
Common question
What questions should I ask the IVF centre?
Ask about the proposed protocol, monitoring, relevant risks, costs, embryo transfer and storage policies, and how outcomes are explained for your circumstances.
