We specialise in fertility in the widest sense of the term.

This means our primary focus is helping couples conceive naturally or achieve success with IVF. We also support women through menopause, and with conditions such as fibroids, endometriosis, and PCOS.

Patients often come to us after years of trying to conceive. Despite undergoing tests, scans, cycles of IUI IVF and ICSI, many still do not know why pregnancy has not happened. Sometimes they are diagnosed with ‘unexplained infertility’, which leaves them no clearer about the cause.

Fertility at its most fundamental is simple: a healthy sperm meets a healthy egg, develops into an embryo and then, a baby. The key factors that determine success are, therefore, good quality sperm and a good quality egg.

We focus on the fundamentals: helping men improve sperm quantity and quality, and women improve their egg quality.

Male testing

A simple sperm test can tell us whether a man has sufficient sperm. It also assesses basic quality parameters such as motility (how well they move), viability (how long they survive after ejaculation) and morphology (their shape). A more in-depth test, known as DNA fragmentation, evaluates whether there is an adequate number of sperm with good sperm DNA integrity.

We explain results with patients free of charge over the phone.

Results for sperm tests are available after 3 working days. DNA and genetics tests take 2 weeks.

Female testing

Scientific research points to a key group of factors that influence egg quality: the hormones that regulate the reproductive system.

Reproductive hormones control the menstrual cycle. They determine when a period begins, its length, and whether it occurs at all. They also play a key role in regulating ovulation — when and whether it happens. Typically, only one egg is released during ovulation, making its quality heavily dependent on the hormonal environment that shapes the entire menstrual and ovulation process.

In our clinical experience, an overwhelming number of women who cannot conceive naturally or experience repeated IVF failure show signs of hormonal imbalance, which in turn leads to poor egg quality.

We explain results with patients free of charge over the phone.

Treatments

Once we assess indices for sperm and egg quality and identify underlying issues, the next question is how to improve them.

At TCM Healthcare, we help women improve egg quality by addressing hormonal imbalance. We also help men improve sperm count and quality. Click the links below for more details.

A second opinion service

We offer a second opinion service free of charge, where you can send us hormone, sperm and other relevant test results. Consultations are conducted over the phone, and are not face-to-face medical consultations.

Since we work with IUI, IVF, ICSI, egg and sperm freezing specialists, we can help you explore a full range of options before you decide on a course of action that suits you best.

This service is provided in good faith, based on clinical experience and our work with partner specialists, such as IVF clinics. We accept no liability for decisions made based on the information provided and encourage you to discuss advice received with your own doctor before making treatment decisions.
