We take a root cause approach to fertility, delving deep into the underlying factors that could be impacting your fertility journey. Our comprehensive consultations and functional fertility testing aim to identify and address these issues to optimise your chances of conception.
The World Health Organisation advises that 1 in 6 couples have fertility issues, and 1 in 4 couples experience miscarriage. Additionally, 50% of infertility cases are due to male factor infertility, which is why we recommend that both partners attend the consultation.
Our goal is to work with couples to improve their overall health, enhance their chances of becoming pregnant, and successfully carry a baby to term. Studies have also shown that preconception work benefits the health of the baby, which continues into adulthood.
Functional fertility testing allows us to explore various factors that may contribute to fertility challenges. Potential root causes we investigate include nutrient deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, autoimmune conditions such as thyroid disorders, and infections in the gut, vaginal, or seminal microbiomes. We also consider the impact of environmental toxins on egg and sperm quality and hormonal function, as well as the effects of mould exposure on hormones and reproductive organs. By understanding these underlying factors, we can develop personalised strategies to support your fertility health.
Our fertility treatments are suitable for:
Whether you are just beginning your journey or have been trying for some time without success, our approach can help identify and address any underlying issues.
If you have undergone IVF treatments without success, we can explore potential root causes and develop a personalised treatment plan to improve your chances of success in future attempts. Our approach also aims to improve the quality of eggs, addressing underlying issues that may be impacting your fertility.
For those who have experienced one or more miscarriages, we provide thorough testing and treatment to identify and address any factors that may be contributing to this issue. Some contributing factors include infections and studies show approximately 30% of miscarriages are due to male factor fertility.
Our fertility consultations begin with an in-depth initial session where we discuss your medical history, symptoms, and concerns. This thorough approach ensures that we tailor our testing and treatment recommendations to your specific needs.
We recommend that both you and your partner attend, but we also offer individual consultations. Follow-up sessions are scheduled three weeks after the tests to review the results, discuss progress, and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.
