Process Flow

Treatment Planning and Preparation: Detailed treatment plan will be given followed by a medication review with the fertility nurse
Building the Lining: can be done naturally or by taking estrogen daily for 10-12days
Monitoring appointments: This happens every 2-3 days to track the development of the follicles and uterine lining
Lining Receptivity: Once the lining measures between 7mm-12mm, progesterone is added and the embryo transfer is booked. Progesterone improves the lining’s recepetivity
Embryo Transfer: Embryo is thawed and transferred into the uterus using an ultrasound guided catheter
Pregnancy Testing: Carried out 12 - 14 days later
