Fertility preservation at The Evewell
Total transparency
Open and honest conversations
We only believe in open and honest recommendations, and this also applies to treatments such as fertility preservation.
During your initial consultation, we’ll work together to find the best fertility preservation plan for your current lifestyle and future plans.
This may include egg freezing, embryo banking or sperm freezing. Either way, you will be fully supported throughout your decision making process and journey.
Support and guidance
With you every step of the way
We understand that making the decision to freeze your eggs can be a big step into the unknown.
Our team have been trained to ensure sensitivity and that individual circumstances are considered during appointments.
We offer slightly longer appointment times, to ensure you’ve been able to ask all the questions you may have, and if you’re having treatment on your own, our team will always make sure no reference to a partner is made and you’re welcome to bring someone with you to your appointments.
Arming you with the facts
Knowledge is power, and this is especially important with your future fertility
Unique to The Evewell is allowing all patients access to our entire team, including the embryology team, who will be fully involved in your journey.
During this meeting, usually before you commence your treatment, the team will take time to explain how the sperm freezing process works, and the differences between freezing eggs and embryos, and which is most likely to result in a pregnancy when you are ready to start building your family.
Reasons to preserve your fertility
What happens during an egg freezing cycle?
We know that undergoing fertility treatment can be an anxious and stressful time. Our team will guide and support you throughout your journey whilst ensuring that they deliver first-class clinical results.
Step 01
Individualised Plan
Step 01
Individualised Plan
Once we have discussed your future family plans, we design an individualised treatment plan to deliver the best possible results for you.
You’ll then spend time with one of our specialist fertility nurses who will guide you through your individualised treatment plan and be on hand to provide you with care and support throughout your journey.
Step 02
On your schedule
Step 02
On your schedule
We do everything we can to work around your life and your cycle. Only when you’re ready, your fertility preservation treatment will start.
This means no extra hormone medication to align your cycle with our schedules, we just ask for you to call us when your period starts. This might mean more work for us, but it means less stress on your body.
Step 03
Monitoring
Step 03
Monitoring
For the case of female fertility preservation, once you start your hormone injections to stimulate your ovaries, your follicle growth, egg development, and hormone levels will be closely monitored by your consultant.
And even though you have one consultant, you benefit from the entire team’s experience and knowledge when they review your progress at our daily ‘All Hands’ meeting.
Step 04
Egg Collection
Step 04
Egg Collection
Wherever possible, your consultant will perform your egg collection, working closely with the embryology team.
Your retrieved eggs will be evaluated and cryopreserved by an embryologist the same day. If you are opting to create and freeze embryos, you will be updated by the embryology team on Day 5.
Step 05
Fertility aftercare
Step 05
Fertility aftercare
Once you’ve had your egg collection, you will have a follow-up consultation with your doctor to review your treatment.
When you’re ready to discuss starting your family, you will arrange a meeting with your consultant to discuss the best plan of action for your sperm, or egg fertilisation, if you don’t have embryos stored, and possible investigative tests before any embryo transfer to help maximise your chances of pregnancy.
How much does fertility preservation cost?
We know that fertility treatments are not only an emotional commitment but also a financial one too, so we’ve made sure our prices are competitive.
We always recommend to patients that when comparing prices between clinics they ensure that they have prices for all the elements that a clinic expects a patient to pay for.
