AI-generated fertility companion — not a real doctor. It gives general education, not a diagnosis or a change to your treatment plan. In an emergency, contact your clinic or local emergency services.

Find a clinic and prepare

Use this checklist to compare clinics and get the most out of a first consultation.

Consultation checklist

Clinic experience: how many egg freezing cycles they run, and how they report results for people of your age.
Timing: how soon you could start, how many visits are needed, and which can be remote.
Costs: an itemised quote covering consultations, tests, medication, retrieval, anaesthesia, freezing and yearly storage, plus what happens to fees if a cycle is cancelled.
Storage: where the eggs are kept, for how long, how renewal works and what it costs each year.
Follow-up: who contacts you after retrieval, and how you reach the team later, even years from now.

Questions people ask

General education from the MYOS patient guide. Every answer is in clinical review and not yet approved by a clinic. Your clinic's own instructions come first.

How long will the process take?

Allow time for consultations, tests, medication delivery and scheduling. Stimulation and retrieval take place over a much shorter period than the whole IVF journey, which can include later transfer cycles. Ask for dates that are firm and dates that may move.

What should I ask at my first visit?

Ask why the proposed plan fits, what alternatives you have, what the quoted price includes, which decisions are time-sensitive, and who to contact when the clinic is closed.

Will insurance or employer benefits pay for it?

Coverage varies by location, plan and indication. Ask the payer and clinic for written confirmation of eligible services, network rules, approval requirements, limits and expected out-of-pocket costs.

Can I ask for my own doctor?

If your clinic offers secure messaging, you can request the clinician treating you. Ask how the team handles absences, which staff can respond and which questions go directly to the doctor.

Can I use WhatsApp or a text message?

Use the channel your clinic identifies for treatment questions. Ask what can be sent there, who can see the message, how quickly to expect a reply and what to use for urgent help.
