A fertility nurse will meet you during a video consultation lasting about 45 minutes. In some circumstances, it may be more beneficial to have this session as a face-to-face appointment. The team will explain if this is relevant to you.
At this appointment, the implications and process of the treatment regime will be explained to you in detail. We will also discuss the emotional support available, the risks and potential outcomes of each stage of treatment and the effects on your work and personal life.
You will be able to ask the nurse any questions that you have.
After this appointment, you will be registered on the Fertility Consent portal to allow you to complete the correct consent forms.
These forms are legal documents required by the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority who regulate all IVF clinics in the United Kingdom.
It is essential that you complete this package, as we are unable to start treatment until all the necessary forms are completed.
