You wish to create your own family, but there are conception delays for different reasons. Many couples find that this is the beginning of the path to achieve their objective, which is to create their own family. A large number of couples currently obtain the desired result with the help of assisted reproduction. In a large number of cases, all it takes is medical advice, better planning and, in many cases, the detailed investigation of single problems. There are many different reasons for infertility, therefore, the experts’ advice is the first right move for subsequent decisions.
What you should know is that you are not alone. Recent data show that over 300,000 couples have infertility issues and are unable to have a child either due to health reasons or due to anxiety in daily life. In our country, one out of twenty children is born using an assisted reproduction method, i.e. 5% of annual births. It is particularly encouraging that new therapeutic techniques and modern pharmaceutical support are currently applied to provide more safety in assisted reproduction methods and achieve better and successful pregnancy outcomes.
Moreover, IVF and foetal development techniques have been largely developed to enable expert scientists, gynecologists, and embryologists to successfully treat the most challenging cases, thus contributing to the birth of approx. 5,000 children annually from approx. 12,000 IVF cycles realized annually.
