We are proud to sponsor this year’s Rising Festival. One of our consultants, Dr Shreeya Tewary, is at the forefront of the panel discussions, and our head of HR, Helen Turner, is one of the coaches available on the day. The conflict between the biological clock and the career clock will be part of discussions at this year’s event, which takes place in Cambridge on 21 September and celebrates women's potential, ambition, fulfilment and wellbeing.Another key theme of the festival will be fostering a workplace culture in which women feel supported in their decisions regarding family planning and fertility treatment. We are great supporters of this! 🗣️Read more here: moredetails.uk/3TlIIyQThe Rising Network #RisingFest2024 #RisingFestival2024

Thank you to our patient who left this lovely review of our Stamford clinic and about Bev Kimminau, our Nursing Development Manager, who is based at our new Stamford Fertility Health Suite.“After many months of looking into fertility treatment clinics, we decided to opt for Bourn Hall Stamford. “This was mainly due to the location of the clinic being near to where we live, as well as being a much smaller clinic than other providers. “What appealed to us was the one-to-one ongoing support by a named fertility nurse, who we would be able to build a rapport with during this challenging but exciting time. “Instantly, Bev put myself and my partner at ease. Bev was extremely competent in her knowledge and skills, alongside having an excellent bedside manner. “Her humour allowed us to feel relaxed throughout all interventions, while remaining professional at all times. “We are so glad we made the decision to book our treatment with Bourn Hall Stamford in order to receive a more intimate and personal service, which many providers would be unable to match. “I highly recommend Bev for your fertility journey. Despite it being early days, we already feel so much support and delivery of the highest quality of care.”If you’ve not yet booked your free 15-minute mini-consultation with Bev, head to our website now: moredetails.uk/45Z4QnL

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common condition that affects ovarian function and egg release, with symptoms that can signal infertility. Women with PCOS often experience a hormone imbalance, including abnormal insulin levels and higher testosterone, which can cause irregular periods, excess body hair, acne, and polycystic ovaries.Maintaining a healthy BMI can be challenging for women with PCOS, which can further affect fertility, as weight influences insulin production.Learn more about how PCOS affects fertility here: moredetails.uk/3kkoSR2 Verity - PCOS Charity #pcosawarenessmonth #pcosawareness #pcos
