Fertility

Supporting patients through their infertility battles.

Struggling to conceive can be an emotional battle for all concerned.

Infertility, which is classed as a failure to conceive after 12 months or more of unprotected intercourse without pregnancy, affects men and women across the globe.

You may be struggling with:

  • Primary infertility – when a woman who has never conceived has difficulty conceiving.
  • Secondary infertility – when a woman has had one or more pregnancies in the past but is now having difficulty conceiving again

 

The fertility clinic at Avicenna offers specialist fertility treatment and access to one of the country’s top fertility experts, who is an accredited specialist in reproductive medicine and is a fellow of the Royal College of Obstetrics and Gynaecology.

If you are considering private fertility treatment you can talk to a consultant at the Clinic who will talk thorough which treatments are offered, the price of treatment and success rates.

You can access the Avicenna patient area and book an appointment here.

Treatment options

NHS guidelines state that if a woman has not become pregnant through unprotected sex after a year (six months if she is aged more than 35) it is then best to seek the advice of a GP or an appropriate medical professional.

Fertility drugs, Surgery, Intrauterine Insemination (IUI), In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI), Gamete Intrafallopian Transfer (GIFT), Zygote Intrafallopian Transfer (ZIFT), Donor eggs and Embryos and Gestational Surrogacy.
