Fertility Work Up
Whether you’re ready to have a baby or just want to learn more about your options for fertility preservation, a fertility work-up is the first step.
Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)
A type of artificial insemination that allows physicians to inject sperm directly into a patient’s uterine cavity during an optimal time of ovulation to achieve pregnancy.
In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)
The process of fertilization by obtaining eggs and sperm, and then manually combining an egg and sperm in a laboratory dish. The embryo(s) is then transferred to the uterus.
Reciprocal IVF
Also known as partner-assisted reproduction, shared motherhood, partner IVF, co-IVF, or ROPA (reception of oocytes from partner), reciprocal IVF is a process in which one partner acts as an egg donor to the other allowing both partners to participate, biologically and emotionally, in a pregnancy.
Invocell (IVC)
A first-of-its-kind device used in fertility treatment, INVOCELL holds the eggs and sperm in your body for fertilization and incubation, allowing patients to be more personally involved in the process of achieving pregnancy.
Third-Party Reproduction
The use of donated eggs, sperm, embryos and/or a gestational carrier to enable patients to become parents.
