Patient info

Your fertility journey will be full of questions: medical terms you may not understand, different ways of getting treatment, things you can do to prepare yourself for treatment or simply understanding who you should choose to help you on that journey.

In these pages we aim to give you the information to answer some of those questions.

Criteria for treatment – maximum age and BMI

Clinicians may on occasion apply flexibility regarding age criteria.

Patients can be treated up to a maximum BMI of 40. An anaesthetic review would be required for patients with a BMI of 35 – 40 except where sedation is not required.
