Clinic details: The Glasgow Centre for Reproductive Medicine caters to one of the largest and busiest population centres in Scotland, and in fact in the rest of the UK, and as such is required to excel to meet the needs of a diverse and numerous population as well as to compete with other service providers in the field. Private patients are admitted by the GCRM for treatment with no BMI limit and a flexible age limit unlike many other treatment centres. Diverse options are made available to patients so that a treatment option perfectly suited to you will be found. Intra-cytoplasm sperm injection (ICSI) is offered on top of an excellent IVF (in vitro fertilisation) service, which is provided alongside artificial insemination through the IUI (intrauterine insemination) technique with both donor and partner sperm. IVF can be performed using a technique referred to as blastocyst transfer, which essentially involves letting an embryo mature more than it normally would prior to transfer and implantation into the womb. The centre actively recruits donors and offers patients the chance to use donated sperm, eggs, and embryos for treatments. Alongside fertility treatments, PGD, also known as pre-implantation genetic diagnosis, is offered as a means by which the genetic health of a child can be determined prior to a pregnancy.
Fertility treatment at this clinic: The Glasgow Centre for Reproductive Medicine GCRM is, unsurprisingly based in Glasgow, and provides what is described as a bespoke assisted conception service that aims to support and inform at every stage of your care. Housed in a modern and purpose built facility hosting the best technologies and equipment available, the GCRM is able to deliver assisted reproduction technologies to the best national standards. Like most other fertility clinics, the GCRM holds a license from the HFEA, an independent organisation which monitors fertility treatments to ensure that the appropriate standards are observed. The HFEA reports on success rates the proportion of live births from treatment cycles, and its website will tell you that the GCRM regularly perform IVF and ICSI treatments that are consistently successful with the nation's average live birth rate from those treatments. Similarly the proportion of single births are reported by the HFEA as multiple births are widely considered a serious health risk to both mother and child, the GCRM achieves an 81.5% percentage of single births compared to the HFEA's target, 76% in 2009, indicating the centre's commitment to delivering quality care in all respects.
