The Royal Cornwall Hospital can be found in Truro, where it forms part of a Trust that, through three hospitals, provides healthcare to the whole county. Truro itself is a very popular tourist destination and is one of the busier parts of Cornwall, acting as a prime location for entertainment, the governing of the county, and retail within the large southern county. Truro is technically Cornwall's only city and is in fact the southernmost city of the UK with its own unique look and feel, dominated by a famous cathedral. The Royal Cornwall Hospital's Cornwall Centre for Reproductive medicine (CCRM) is the county's provider of fertility treatments, and offers a number of different treatments. In terms of investigative procedures the CCRM offers ultrasound scanning and analysis of the reproductive tract, in which defects that are often the source of infertility and subfertility can be detected. A number of surgical treatment options are available which can greatly benefit some patients, these include tubal surgery, laparoscopy, and the treatment of a condition called endometriosis. Tubal surgery is often a solution to damaged fallopian tubes, a cause of infertility in many women. Endometriosis is also a relatively common cause of infertility, and is the excessive growth of the lining of the womb, called the endometrium, outwards into other parts of the reproductive system like the fallopian tubes. The most popular treatment option available at the CCRM and Royal Cornwall Hospital is artificial insemination by way of a method called IUI (intrauterine insemination). This method is tried and tested, and has gained a reputation as a cost effective and fairly successful treatment for infertility. The hospital's services in this department are available for private and NHS patients up to and over the age of 44, provided they have a BMI of under 30.
