Description

In this episode, Prof Chapman shares why IVF is not always the immediate answer for couples struggling to conceive. He explains when it makes sense to wait, the key investigations that can reveal underlying issues, and why treatments like ovulation induction or intrauterine insemination (IUI) often succeed before IVF is needed. Prof Chapman also highlights important age considerations and why women over 38 may need to move more quickly toward advanced options.
