Considering less invasive options first

Finding the root cause of male infertility is important in treating it.

Most people assume that if they are having trouble conceiving that they should go straight to IVF. Although IVF is a very good and highly successful option, there are many other treatments for male infertility, which may be less invasive and less expensive. We will always consider these options first.

Understanding Why

Understanding Why

We believe that one size doesn’t fit all, so the first step of your journey at The Evewell is to meet with one of our consultants.

We don’t want you to have to go through extensive unnecessary tests or treatment, so if you have medical notes or test results from previous treatments, we’re happy to use these providing they are within the required timeframe.

Sometimes during this meeting, we decide that IVF isn’t the best plan for you, and instead, you’ll be recommended alternative solutions that other fertility clinics perhaps haven’t considered.

Lifestyle changes

Lifestyle changes

Giving up smoking, decreasing alcohol intake, following a healthy diet and stress management may be beneficial in some cases.

A diet high in antioxidants such as vitamin C and E has been proven to improve the quality of sperm by decreasing the number of free radicals that may cause membrane damage.

The use of zinc, fish oil and selenium has also shown to be beneficial. Anti-oxidants have been shown to reduce sperm DNA fragmentation.
