  • Blocked or damaged tubes

  • Conditions like endometriosis or PCOS

The following find relief with IVF treatment:

  • Female infertility due to poor egg quality or ovulation problems

  • Male infertility due to poor sperm movement (motility)

  • Genetic risks

  • Same-sex couples and single parents using donors
