There are many advantages of having fertility treatment in the UK, the most important being its level of regulation and being the centre of several breakthroughs in IVF research.
In the UK, the fertility sector is tightly regulated by a government body, the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA). Only clinics that meet HFEA requirements during regular inspections can obtain a license to treat patients. Strict regulation makes accessing treatment safer and ensures an independent source for information about each clinic is available in the public domain.
The UK has led many breakthroughs in reproductive medicine: Louise Brown, the first human conceived through IVF, was born in the UK in 1978. As a central hub of fertility research, most UK clinics offer advanced treatment types, such as genetic testing and egg donation, that may not be readily available in other countries.
The UK fertility sector is highly competitive. Therefore NOW-fertility patients seeking treatment in the UK can expect a very high standard of personalised care at an affordable price.
