Egg Freezing, Sperm Donors & Breaking Down IVF

Today, Dr Shauna is joined by Dr Tamara Hunter, Perth’s leading IVF Doctor and Fertility Specialist. Whilst infertility and couples struggling to conceive isn’t a new phenomenon, it’s certainly a topic with a growing awareness and is something we seem to be talking more about in recent years. For many, the IVF process is a bit of a mystery and is an intimidating topic. What is actually involved, from your first Doctors appointment to having a baby? How much does it cost? What are the statistics around success rates? When is the right time to freeze your eggs? And what about sperm donors? Dr Shauna and Dr Tamara unpack what IVF really looks like behind the scenes, including the emotional and physical toll it takes on couples that are going through it. If yourself, a friend, or family member are considering IVF, or may be in the thick of the process, this one’s for you.
