Work with me: Premium IVF Intensive Consultations
Egg Collection Intensive
75-90 minutes
If you want to make sure that you get the best possible result from your egg collection without having to do multiple rounds and put more stress on your body and bank account- then you're in the right place.
If you are ready to take research backed advice and put it into practice to get high quality mature eggs that fertilise and create healthy embryos- then it's time to do things differently.
The Egg Collection Intensive focuses on increasing your egg quality as much as possible so that you can increase your chances of having more healthy mature eggs retrieved, optimal fertilisation rate, and more viable day 5 embryos.
To do this, we focus on energy production within the cell to support egg growth and maturation (yes, there are key nutrition factors that help to do this!), and healthy chromosomal processing. We also protect your eggs from harm through an anti-inflammatory and an antioxidant-rich dietary and supplementation approach.
We also review all blood test results and make recommendations, and of course address your personal fertility circumstances. This is all about providing you with support, reassurance, direction, clarity and actionable steps.
This is also perfect for you if you are doing egg freezing!

Embryo Transfer Intensive
75-90 minutes
If you have had a transfer before and it didn't work out the way you had hoped so now you want to make sure that you do EVERYTHING possible to increase your chances of a successful transfer- you're in the right place.
This FET Intensive Consultation provides you with a nutrition and supplement plan to improve your chances of a successful transfer and pregnancy (using research proven to increase implantation rates by up to 32%!).
This session aims to create a personalised plan for you to achieve low levels of inflammation in your uterine environment, support blood flow to your uterus (this makes a huge difference to being able to establish pregnancy), thickens your lining for optimal transfer outcomes, and boosts uterine receptivity - all shown to significantly improve implantation rates.
We offer clinical advice, so you can advocate for yourself and ask the right questions to your specialist. I review all your blood test results and make recommendations around any additional testing.
