Treatments

It is our job as doctors to select with you the best treatment for you. This means the treatment that in your specific situation gives the greatest chance of pregnancy, in the context of the physical and mental burden of the treatment and bearing in mind the cost efficiency of the treatment. Every kind of treatment requires effort from you as a married couple and you will sometimes feel it is onerous. This is not surprising considering that getting pregnant is pretty well regarded as something that can be taken for granted.

If it doesn’t happen it is often met with a lack of understanding not only by you as a couple but also and in particular by those close to you - family, friends or acquaintances. Consequently for these reasons a psychologist works permanently with the centre and can be contacted whenever you need. Treatment for fertility problems can only work best if a lot of different people work together: a specialist in male fertility, a psychologist, the technicians in the laboratory, the nurses and the administrative staff. Although we work as a team we try to approach each couple individually. When going through the practicalities of your treatment the secretaries and the nurses will do their best to assist you. If some aspects of your treatment are not entirely clear, you can always ask them to explain.
