FAQS

I’m not Spanish. Do you have staff to help me in my own language?

Yes. Our international patient care team and our medical staff speak Spanish, English, German, French, Dutch, Italian, Russian, and Arabic.

How many times will I have to visit to the clinic?

It depends on the type of treatment you are going to have at the clinic and whether you are a patient who lives in Spain or abroad. Normally it is 2-3 visits to the clinic. 

An initial consultation, a visit to make the transfer (in the case of egg donation) and one more visit if an ovarian puncture is performed for IVF.

How about my travel arrangements to IVF-Life?

Our patient care team will help you arrange your visits to Alicante. We’ll organise private transport service from the airport or hotel to the centre. 

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.

Is there a waiting list for the first appointment?

No. We will ask you to let us know on which dates you are available. We are almost certain to be able to accommodate your needs.

What type of tests must I have?

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 be no longer than one year old on the date 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.

Is there a maximum body mass index (BMI) for fertility treatment?

If you are over 50 years old or your BMI is greater than 35, consult the clinic for more information.

What is Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH)?

Anti-Müllerian hormone or AMH is produced naturally by women in the ovarian follicles. It is an important indicator of your ovarian reserve.

Can I bring donor semen?

No. In Spain, gamete donation is anonymous by law, both for oocytes and semen. If donor sperm is needed, patients fill out a form with questions about their phenotype (physical characteristics) and send us a photo. 

Our embryologists are in charge of finding the donor that corresponds to each patient.

Can I pick the treatment dates myself?

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 stimulation to fit in with your plans.
