Add on fertility treatments – we need your experience and views
Please complete the short online survey about add on fertility treatments: how they should be offered by clinics, what information patients need and how much they should expect to pay
The Human Fertilisation Embryology Authority, together with Fertility Network UK is seeking your views about add on fertility treatments in a short online survey at
https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/MGNMKGQ
If you are having fertility treatment, you may be offered additions to your treatment which aim to increase the success rate. These additional treatments, often called add ons, include drugs for reproductive immunology, laboratory-based interventions such as embryo glue or incubators with time-lapse imaging, or surgical methods such as endometrial scratching.
Most of these add ons are not fully proven to increase your chance of getting pregnant, but clinics normally charge extra for them.
Fertility Network UK, the UK’s leading patient-focussed fertility charity, and the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority, the UK’s dedicated fertility regulator, are working together to make sure that patients get access to high quality, effective fertility treatment. We also want patients to be able to take part in research to improve fertility treatment, if they want to.
We want to find out what patients think about these add ons: how they should be offered by clinics, what information patients need and how much they should expect to pay.
Please tell us about your experience and views about fertility treatment add ons. This survey is anonymous and will take around 10 minutes to complete.
