Expert advice from one of Australia’s leading fertility specialists at TasIVF could help you understand your overall reproductive health and find the best solution to help you have a baby.
The fertility services available at TasIVF include fertility specialist consultations, blood & ultrasound monitoring, IVF treatment and access to advanced scientific treatments such as pre-implantation genetic screening. There is also an onsite laboratory and any day hospital procedures are undertaken in the same building, providing convenience and continuity of care throughout your fertility journey.
Following initial testing and assessment, your fertility specialist may also recommend fertility surgery to help further investigate the cause of infertility. Fertility surgeries undertaken may include laparoscopy, endometriosis treatment, Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) treatment, fallopian tube surgery and microsurgery.
IVF (In Vitro Fertilisation) is a process where an egg and sperm are joined together outside the body in a specialised laboratory. The resulting embryo is then transferred to the woman’s uterus.
The eggs are collected for IVF by a fertility specialist during a simple procedure which is undertaken in a day surgery usually under a light general anaesthetic. You will be at the hospital for around 4 hours and the procedure takes around 10-15 minutes. You may experience some cramping after the procedure. You will need someone to drive you home and to rest for the remainder of the day.
