Fertility treatment for heterosexual couples

IVF, also known as in vitro fertilization, is a method where eggs are fertilized outside the woman's body. The process involves hormone stimulation to produce multiple eggs, which are then retrieved and fertilized with sperm in the laboratory. One or more fertilized eggs (embryos) are then transferred back into the woman's uterus. IVF can be used for various forms of infertility and gives many couples the opportunity to become parents.

If the woman has infrequent or absent ovulations, ovulation can be stimulated through tablet treatment or hormone injections. This way, there are good chances for the couple to achieve their longed-for pregnancy "on their own". The stimulations can be repeated several times to increase the chance of becoming pregnant. If pregnancy still does not occur, IVF is a possible next step.

Insemination is a fertility treatment where sperm is introduced into the woman's uterus during ovulation. This method can be used with either the partner's sperm (AIH - Artificial Insemination by Husband) or with donated sperm (AID - Artificial Insemination by Donor).

All Livio clinics offer fertility assessment, which is the first step in a treatment process for couples and individuals with a desire to have children. If you have been trying to conceive for one year (or 6 months if the woman is older than 35), it is appropriate to seek help.

The Livio group offers single individuals and couples IVF treatment or insemination with high-quality donated sperm and short waiting times.

Egg donation can be an option for couples and single women where the woman lacks, or has severely reduced ovarian function. Livio offers high-quality egg donation and double donation treatments with short waiting times after assessment.
