If you're facing male factor infertility or have had poor fertilization in a previous IVF cycle, Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) could be the right next step for you. It's an innovative way to control some of the variables that are in play at the time of fertilization, and can increase your chances for healthy embryos, producing healthy babies.

Oocyte cryopreservation is the process of storing freshly retrieved eggs in a frozen state at a very low temperature. The extreme cold allows the eggs to stay preserved indefinitely and still function normally after they are thawed. When you decide to start your family, the eggs are thawed, fertilized and transferred into the uterus.

At RHWC, we've helped thousands of our patients become parents. When you use our Egg Donor Program for your fertility success, we'll advise and guide you each step of the way, from the process of choosing your egg donor all the way through to the day you're holding your healthy baby.

Using donor eggs is a great option if you're facing infertility because of issues related to egg production or quality, possibly caused by hereditary factors, health conditions, surgery or age.After age 35, a decline in ovarian function is normal. The quality and quantity of eggs naturally decreases, making it harder to get pregnant.

For some of us, the journey to a healthy baby might require the use of a surrogate, or what we now call a gestational carrier. A gestational carrier is someone who agrees to carry someone else's pregnancy. There are a number of reasons why people might want or need to use a gestational carrier.

Some reasons include single men or gay couples who want to have a family, women who do not have a uterus, women who have medical issues and cannot safely carry, or women who have had multiple pregnancy losses.At Reproductive Health and Wellness Center, we work with only the best surrogacy agencies in southern California who are as dedicated to your fertility success as we are.

Poor nutrition can compound fertility issues. Being underweight can cause hormone fluctuations, affect menstruation and can increase miscarriage risks. Obesity can affect menstruation, and can also lead to gestational diabetes, hypertension, preeclampsia and toxemia, as well as ovulation issues.

Maintaining a consistent, healthy diet that addresses your individual needs and keeps your body running in top condition will give you the best chance for a healthy pregnancy.Whether your goal is to manage your weight, control a condition like PCOS, or learn proper nutrition so your body can thrive, we're here for you.
