No BMI Restriction for Fertility Treatments – A Personalized Approach to Care
At our clinic, we believe every person’s journey to parenthood is unique. That’s why we do not use a strict BMI cut-off as a condition for starting fertility treatment. Instead, our medical team takes an individualised approach, looking at a range of health factors to ensure both safety and the best possible chance of success.
Before beginning treatment, we carefully evaluate together:
- Metabolic health: including blood sugar levels, cholesterol, and blood pressure, to reduce risks during treatment and pregnancy.
- Nutritional status: ensuring your body has the right foundation to support conception and pregnancy.
- Cardiovascular and respiratory health: important for both treatment safety and pregnancy wellbeing.
- Lifestyle habits: such as smoking, alcohol consumption, physical activity, and sleep, which can affect fertility outcomes and pregnancy health.
- Age: recognising how age impacts fertility potential and also increase some risks we will be able to tailor the treatment approach accordingly.
- Chronic diseases: such as diabetes, thyroid disorders, or hypertension, which may require special care to reduce risks and improve success.
- Medication and anaesthesia considerations: tailoring treatment plans to minimise complications.
Our goal is not to exclude, but to empower and prepare you for a safe journey towards parenthood. By focusing on these factors rather than BMI alone, we aim to reduce potential risks and create the best conditions for treatment success and a healthy pregnancy.
Your health and your dream of becoming a parent matter equally to us. Together, we will build a safe and supportive plan for your fertility journey.
