Infertility Support Group for Men:

Infertility strikes men and women equally, and regardless of who has the diagnosis, both partners can benefit from emotional support. Men – Do you ever wonder when exactly is the right time to vent your own reactions and feelings without being judged or concerned about saying the wrong thing?
 
The time is now. Come in and express your perspective with other men in the same position. Or just come in for the support.

**This group meets bi-monthly, please contact Bina Benisch for dates and times - bbenisch@liivf.com - 631-297-0096 

What is Micro IVF?


Micro IVF, also known as Mini IVF or minimal stimulation, is an IVF procedure whereby a patient's ovaries are stimulated with oral medications (Clomid) in conjunction with a minimal amount of injectable gonadotropins. The process proceeds in identical fashion to conventional IVF with egg retrieval, fertilization, embryo culture and ultrasound-guided embryo transfer.


What are the benefits?


  • Lower cost than most other IVF procedures
  • Use of fewer or less amounts of fertility drugs
  • Less risk of high order multiple pregnancies
  • Often produces multiple high-quality embryos, some of which can be cryopreserved for potential additional transfers in the future
  • Can be used in cases that intrauterine insemination (IUI) cannot
  • When combined with the SET program, embryo cryopreservation is FREE,
    as is embryo storage for one year
