IVF curing – recommendations for patient

We recommend you to read this information before IVF program. We also recommend you to read this information once again after the beginning of IVF program. If you will have some questions during the process of curing it would be better to ask your doctor all necessary questions. This information and your doctor will answer all common and individual questions.

If you are planning IVF program it would be better for you to discuss all the questions with your doctor one or two months earlier the period when you plan IVF cycle. During the consultation your doctor will see the results of previous exams. Some new exams will be necessary to pass: common gynecological consultation, ultrasonic exam, exam of hormonal state, exams on some infections. Some additional examinations will be done if it will be necessary.

The doctor will give you the example of the contract with our clinic for medical service and IVF program (IVF program will include method of ICSI, IMSI, assisted hatching). All documents and contracts should be signed by both sides: clinic and patient. You will be informed about the time of consultation with the doctor where you will look through the contract and ask all the questions. One of the main conditions for IVF program start is using of not hormonal but mechanical contraceptives (condoms).
