IVF offers an incredible opportunity to preserve and maximize fertility. But what works for a younger woman in IVF may not be ideal for you. Unfortunately, many IVF doctors fail to understand the nuanced differences, often undermining the outcomes of older fertility patients. 

Let’s work together to:

1. Make the big decisions. Should you do IVF at all or try naturally? When should you do IVF? Should you test your embryos? Day 3 or day 5 embryos? Fresh or frozen? Should you freeze embryos or move straight to transfer? How many embryos do you need and how many cycles? 

2. Ensure you’re on the right medication protocol. IVF doctors will often use the same medication protocols for all of their patients, failing to acknowledge the critical differences between younger and older patients. Things that work for yonger patients may be fully counterproductive for women over 40. I will work with you to provide feedback on your doctor’s protocol and to propose changes that you can discuss with your doctor. Together we will ensure that the protocol will result in the highest quantity and quality of eggs retrieved. 

3. Optimze your IVF cycle and outcome. I will be a supporting voice through your cycle helping you understand the process in much greater detail. We’ll discuss your blood tests, your ultrasounds and medication adjustments. We’ll ensure that you trigger at the right time to retrieve the maximum number of highest-quality eggs.
