PERSONALIZED REPRODUCTIVE THERAPY in Assisting NatureTreatments start with a primary appointment referred to as the “initial meeting”. This includes:

  1. A meeting with the Centre’s Reproduction specialist, briefing on the services provided, and information concerning the medical and legal prerequisites for any of the provided infertility treatments.
  2. An introductory meeting with the Embryologist and the Midwife Coordinator of the Center upon request.

The “Initial Meeting” is offered free of charge.

We inform you that since the couple is set on starting their treatment at Assisting Nature, and their medical file is complete, the initial meeting may advance to the second stage, “Chosing the appropriate IVF treatment” , which includes:

  1. Ultrasound check of the female reproductive organs
  2. Definition and analysis of the infertility factors
  3. Suggest any additional tests and/or procedures
  4. Selection of an individualized method of infertility treatment
  5. Suggest an Economic Therapy Package / Assisting Nature IVF PACKAGES® /
  6. Complete the couple’s medical file and select the monitoring group

All couples are welcome to participate in afternoon sessions programmed to familiarize them with the area and the procedures, in workshops with our Psychologists, and consultative meetings with our Dietician. In each case the first meeting is free. If a Hysteroscopy investigation of the endometrial cavity, the “Advanced Office Hysteroscopy”, is considered necessary, it is planned at least one cycle before starting IVF procedure.

Our Centre offers a counseling session before starting an IVF treatment, with leading geneticists so as to inform the couple about the Pre-implantation Diagnosis advantages (PGS) and about the diagnostic method choices for any congenital or hereditary diseases that prospective parents may be carriers of.

Prior to beginning an IVF treatment, according to the existing legislation, both partners must be tested for:

  1. Infectious diseases: HbsAg, anti-HIV, anti-HCV, VDRL (valid for 6 months)
  2. Blood type / Rh / complete blood count.
  3. The patient undergoing a procedure must have a recent HCG

Our Center can perform all of the tests mentioned above in PACKAGE OFFERS 7-9 / assisting nature IVF Packages / if the patients can’t or do not wish to use their health insurance. You can find the required examinations and necessary documents for your infertility treatment (here).

Starting IVF treatment

Treatment begins with an ultrasound scan / 1-2 days prior to menstruation or on the first day of menstruation / in order for the doctor to confirm the beginning and the protocol of the cycle.

From this moment on, there are going to be frequent / every 3-4 days / ultrasound scans and hormonal blood tests / E2, LH, Pg / till egg retrieval. Our patients may use Packages Offers 7 – 9 such as “Package In vitro Plus®” which covers extra hormonal blood tests, ultrasound scans and the cost of the anesthesia. We advise patients freezing their eggs or embryos to consider the “FreezeFreedom®” Package which offers 5 years of cryopreservation with an advance payment of only 3 years.

You can find information and guidelines concerning egg retrieval (here).

INSTRUCTIONS AFTER THE OOCYTE PICK UP AND UNTIL THE EMBRYOTRANSFER

Responding to our patients’ need for egg collection, we offer innovative packages of our services, such as “Package In vitro 2 in one®” and “Package natural cycle 3 in one®” which provide :

  1. 1-2 cycles of ovulation induction, egg retrieval, and cryopreservation using the egg vitrification method. This process is called egg collection.
  2. Ovulation induction and egg retrieval while thawing the eggs frozen from previous cycles, and then fertilization of them all with the ICSI method.
  3. 3-day or 5-day embryo cultivation / blastocyst stage / which is to be decided by a team of doctors and embryologists (in case of cultivation to the stage of a blastocyst, there is no price differentiation)
  4. Embryo transfer

These Packages were created for patients where, due to poor response, more eggs must be retrieved and put through PGS/PGD or bastocyst culture. The Packages are an appealing offer as they display high cumulative pregnancy rates and resolve certain infertility issues.

The offer requires an advance in payment.

The “Package Mini IVF®” is of interest to patients who desire very mild medication, with small to minimal doses of drugs, aiming to have a smooth and almost natural maturation of their eggs, and good quality embryos. Women with health issues which prohibit a more aggressive induction of ovulation are also in this category. You can get more information on minimal stimulation (here).

Guidelines and information for before and after the embryotransfer can be found (here).

Regardless of the Package offers, our Centre offers a 10% discount on a second full IVF treatment at Assisting Nature and 20% in case of a third full IVF treatment.

We wish you all have a successfull outcome !
