Understanding the desire to have children - causes, ways and possibilities to get pregnant
Here you can find out what is important when getting pregnant, what fertility treatments are available and how we can best support you in your personal situation. Our aim is to provide you with guidance - regardless of whether you have initial questions, are already undergoing fertility treatment or are looking for information about fertility, the cycle and reproductive medicine options.
Your path to your dream child - accompanied step by step with confidence
An unfulfilled desire to have children often raises many questions. The path to pregnancy is a process that takes time and can involve different stages.
It is important to us that you feel you are in good hands with us. We are at your side from the very beginning - from the initial consultation to personalised support throughout the entire process. Regardless of whether you are travelling this path together with your partner or as a single person - we are at your side.
Together we will find out what makes sense in your situation and what treatment options are available to bring you closer to your desire to have children.
Whether natural methods or fertility treatments at home or abroad - we are at your side with empathy, transparency and at your own pace.
The first appointment - understanding your situation and making initial clarifications
At the first fertility appointment, we would like to get to know your personal situation and discuss any unanswered questions. Sometimes we can also carry out initial laboratory tests. At subsequent appointments, we will take further blood samples to determine important hormone levels and perform an ultrasound to assess the uterus and ovaries. We can also initiate the first clarifications regarding the partner's sperm quality.
No special preparation is necessary - we want you to feel that you are in good hands with us. Whether you come alone or accompanied by your partner or someone you trust - you are very welcome.
Planning together: Next steps and individual options
Once the initial results are available, we will discuss together how to proceed. We will look at what next steps make sense for you - whether supportive treatment such as hormonal cycle regulation with insemination is an option, whether cycle monitoring could help or whether further investigations, such as an examination of the fallopian tubes, are recommended.
As an alternative, special fertility treatments at home and abroad can now also be discussed and individually planned. You will receive all the information in a clear and understandable way so that you can make an informed decision about what is right for you. It is important to us to work together to find the path that feels right for you and suits your current life situation.
Start treatment - well accompanied every step of the way
If you decide in favour of treatment, we will continue to support you at every stage. Some fertility treatments can be carried out directly at our practice, such as insemination. Certain fertility treatments can be carried out directly at our practice, but for treatments such as artificial insemination, it makes sense to work with a specialised fertility clinic. Even then, we will remain at your side, support you in your preparations and are available to answer your questions.
Still at your side - even after the first attempt
The path to having children is not always straightforward. Sometimes it takes several attempts, sometimes a new life develops faster than expected. Regardless of how your path unfolds, we will continue to support you. Even after your first attempt at treatment, we will continue to accompany you, answer your questions and support you in finding the next steps. Our aim is to give you reassurance at every stage - with a great deal of understanding, experience and a sympathetic ear.
Frequently asked questions about the desire to have children
When a desire to have children is not immediately fulfilled, many questions often arise. Some concern the course of treatment, others centre on fertility, the menstrual cycle or possible causes. You may also be wondering when it is the right time to seek clarification or what you can do yourself to get pregnant. Here you will find answers to the most frequently asked questions that we encounter in our practice - explained in an understandable way and with the aim of giving you certainty and guidance.
