Treatment of infertility with ART

At ZCD, we perform complete infertility diagnostics for both men and women. Infertility diagnostics are available through insurance on the ZZZS card or on a self-pay basis. Call us for information on what other procedures we perform through insurance on the ZZZS card and which we perform on a self-pay basis.

Openly discussing infertility

One in every six couples in Europe has difficulty getting pregnant. Infertility often causes couples distress and can also be a true test for a relationship.

Infertility occurs when there is no pregnancy after more than a year of regular sexual intercourse. Intercourse on a regular basis is defined as 2 to 3 times per week.

When couples are unable to conceive naturally, we conduct a diagnostic and then begin various treatments. If simple treatments fail, we can assist with artificial insemination procedures, ie. ART. ART is an abbreviation for Assisted Reproductive Technology.

Today’s medicine makes it possible for most couples to have a healthy child. The average success rate of ART procedures is between 25% and 30% per cycle.

The first steps toward having a baby

Initial discussion

One of our gynaecologists will go over all of your problems and previous treatments with you. They will explain the various types of infertility treatments and options for resolving your problems.

Examination

In our clinic, routine clinical examinations of your partner’s sexual organs, as well as gynaecological and reproductive examinations, will be performed.

Semen Analysis (Spermiogram)

In the laboratory, we will examine your partner’s semen to determine the number and motility of sperm, as well as any other abnormalities that may affect male fertility. The gynaecologist will give you the first assessment of the quality of your semen immediately after collection and will also show you the movement of your sperm on the screen. Semen collection requires sexual abstinence for 2 to 7 days.

Blood sampling

A blood sample will allow us to assess your hormonal status.

Decision

After all tests and examinations, you and your gynaecologist will decide how to proceed. You will also agree on the start date of treatment and all other details based on your natural menstrual cycle.

Declaration

My wife had irregular periods due to PCO, and the quality of my sperm wasn't great either. With the help and support of ZCD doctors, we were able to start our own little family within two years.
