Fertility clinic

Fertility clinics are staffed medical clinics that assist couples, and sometimes individuals, who want to become parents but for medical reasons have been unable to achieve this goal via the natural course. Clinics apply a number of tests and sometimes very advanced medical procedures to obtain the desired conceptions and pregnancies.

For the male, semen collection is a standard diagnostic test to ascertain problems with the semen quality. In vitro fertilisation is one common assisted reproductive technology procedure performed at a fertility clinic.
