Fertility is not determined simply by whether a woman has periods. Every woman is born with a valuable but finite number of eggs, and both their quantity and quality decline over time. Each month, nature offers only a small number of genuine opportunities for conception, and these opportunities become fewer with age. This is a simple but important account of how female fertility really works—and why having the right information can make all the difference.

Today, fertility preservation is an informed and proactive choice. Fertility preservation is available to both women and men, using different methods according to individual circumstances. Egg cryopreservation involves freezing and storing a woman’s eggs for future use. The eggs can later be used in a range of fertility treatments, kept in storage for future use, or used for egg donation.

Is infertility an insurmountable obstacle for couples trying to have a child?

Not at all. Infertility is no longer considered a dead end for couples who wish to become parents. In 1978, with the birth of the first baby conceived through in vitro fertilisation, a global field emerged that brought hope to thousands of couples and demonstrated what science could achieve. Although IVF was initially developed to treat infertility caused by fallopian-tube problems, its use later expanded to address both genetic and reproductive disorders, while also raising ethical, religious, social and legal questions. Much has changed over the intervening years: embryology has advanced, assisted reproductive technologies (ART) have progressed, clinical experience has grown and techniques continue to be refined.

What is the age limit for IVF treatment?

For a period of two (2) years from the publication of this provision, the Minister of Health may, following a reasoned favourable opinion from the Greek National Authority of Medically Assisted Reproduction, extend the age limit set out in Article 4 of Law 3305/2005 (Government Gazette A 17) for access to medically assisted reproduction by two (2) years, up to and including the age of fifty-two (52).

The Greek National Authority of Medically Assisted Reproduction made this decision because the pandemic delayed treatment for thousands of couples. It enables many couples and women to complete treatments that had been interrupted or to begin new treatment cycles.

What are the benefits of using IVF to have a child?

Through the IVF We can help couples with fertility problems make their dream come true. Its great advantage is that we can check every stage of the reproduction process and with special tests to find where the problem is focused. By discovering the cause of the problem, we can propose solutions that will increase the chances of success.

Is the IVV method right for me?

Your doctor may recommend IVM: – if you are sensitive to the development of OHSS (ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome – a potentially dangerous reaction to the use of fertility drugs), such as if you have polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) – where the cause of The couple's infertility has been characterized as only a male factor.

Is there an egg donation program?

Our center takes over egg donation program Based on a bank of donors who anonymously wish to donate their eggs. All donors are scrutinized and are advised before treatment begins. A great effort is being made to match the physical characteristics of donor-recipient.
