Single Women & Fertility
Deciding to extend your family is a big but exciting decision.
If you are a single woman who has decided to have a baby, we offer a number of fertility treatment options designed to suit your specific needs. You will soon have some important decisions to make, but please be reassured that we are here to help and guide you through every step of your journey.
Starting your fertility journey
Understanding how likely it might be for you to conceive naturally is a great place to start. Fertility testing helps to pinpoint any fertility problems, will give you a broader understanding of your fertility potential and could mean that you are one step closer to becoming a parent.
Fertility testing options
Fertility testing gives you answers, provides reassurance and peace of mind.
Fertility treatments
As a single female you will likely need fertility treatment to help you realise your dreams of having a baby. We will guide you through suitable options and support you throughout the entire process.
In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF)
A treatment where eggs are fertilised by sperm in a lab, then transferred to the womb, offering hope to individuals or couples facing difficulties conceiving naturally.
Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI)
Sometimes conventional IVF needs a helping hand. Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) is a lab technique that may be appropriate for you, if your sperm needs a bit of extra help to achieve successful fertilisation.
Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)
A fertility treatment where sperm is placed directly into the womb during ovulation, helping to increase the likelihood of sperm reaching and fertilising an egg.
PGT-A (Genetic testing)
A screening method used during IVF to check embryos for chromosomal abnormalities, helping to select the healthiest embryos for transfer, enhancing the chances of a successful pregnancy.
IUI with Donor Sperm
A treatment where donated sperm is carefully placed into the womb during ovulation, supporting individuals or couples unable to conceive with their own sperm.

Fertility preservation options
Preserving your fertility gives you options. If you may want a child in the future but need to undergo a treatment that could make this difficult, fertility preservation could be for you.
Embryo freezing
A process where embryos, created through IVF, are frozen and stored, allowing couples or individuals the chance to use them for future attempts at pregnancy when the timing feels right.
Egg freezing
A process where eggs are collected and preserved through freezing, allowing individuals to store healthy eggs for future use, offering flexibility and reassurance for those wishing to delay pregnancy.
