Yes. Our international patient care team and our medical staff speak Spanish, English, German, French, Dutch, Italian, Russian, and Arabic.
It depends on the type of fertility treatment you are going to undergo at the clinic and whether you live in Spain or abroad. Normally, this involves 2–3 visits to the clinic:
Our patient care team will help you arrange your visits to Alicante. We’ll organise private transport from the airport or hotel to the clinic.
We also have agreements with hotels and apartments close to the clinic. In any case, our assistants will ask for your travel details to better manage your treatment.
No. We will ask you to let us know which dates you are available. We will do our best to accommodate your needs.
All patients and their partners must have blood tests for HIV, hepatitis B and C and syphilis performed by a certified Spanish laboratory. The test must have been carried out within one year of the embryo transfer.
As well as these mandatory tests, your doctor will most likely order more tests based on your medical history. All this can be done locally before you come to IVF-Life, or when you arrive at the clinic.
BMI is one of the factors assessed before starting assisted reproduction treatment, as a high BMI can affect both fertility and certain aspects of treatment and pregnancy.
If you are over 50 years old or your BMI is above 35, please contact the clinic so that our team can assess your case individually. You can find more information about the relationship between overweight, obesity and fertility on our page about obesity-related infertility.
Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) is produced by the cells of the ovarian follicles. It is an important indicator of ovarian reserve.
No. In Spain, gamete donation is anonymous by law, both for oocytes and sperm. If donor sperm is needed, patients complete a form with questions about their phenotype (physical characteristics) and provide us with a photo.
Our embryologists are responsible for selecting a donor who matches each patient’s characteristics.
Yes. IVF-Life adapts treatments to individual patients’ needs.
In fact we usually schedule you for your first appointment to enable you to return during your treatment window so that the doctor can coordinate your stimulation or the donor’s stimulation to fit in with your plans.
