Initial Consultation
Initial Consultation:
The first consultation before IVF treatment takes place in our IVF Clinic or as a VideoCall before your arrival in Istanbul. The doctor will discuss with you the starting point of the treatment, the stimulation, and the course of action..
The initial interview is a personal conversation that either takes place at our Clinic or alternatively over the phone / via Zoom.
During this appointment, you will meet with your fertility specialist who will explain your test results, discuss your medical history (previous pregnancies, miscarriages, births or treatments, if any), answer any questions you may have and discuss your personalized treatment plan.
The interview takes offset in what is most relevant for you to focus on. It is often a good idea for you to prepare a list of questions before the initial interview, but you are also welcome to contact us with questions afterwards.
Please provide us with your AMH-test result, your TSH-test result, written report of HSG (hysterosalpingography) and semen analyze report of your partner if you want to do IVF treatment or need us to assess which treatment would be best for you.
Face to face part of the appointment includes an advanced Pelvic Assessment Scan which will help us assess your egg reserve, the health of your uterus, endometrium (lining of the womb), ovaries and follicles.
If you are ready to go ahead, you can start treatment as soon as your next menstrual cycle begins.
We will arrange for the delivery of your fertility medications, and you will attend a training session, which will cover dosing and timing of your medications.
