Infertility affects many couples, and solutions do exist. At Clinique Elisa, our team supports you step by step, from the first consultation to pregnancy, through medically assisted reproduction (MAR) — including artificial insemination and in vitro fertilization (IVF).

Understanding MAR

What is medically assisted reproduction?

Medically assisted reproduction (MAR) covers all the medical techniques that help a couple conceive when natural conception is difficult or impossible. It is intended for couples facing infertility — whether female, male, combined or unexplained.

At Clinique Elisa, every journey begins with a complete fertility work-up of the couple. Based on the results, our team recommends the technique best suited to your situation, clearly explaining each step and respecting your pace and privacy.

Our techniques

Solutions tailored to each situation

Ovulation induction

A medication-based treatment that stimulates the ovaries to promote regular, quality ovulation — the first step of many journeys.

Artificial insemination (IUI)

Sperm prepared in the laboratory is placed directly into the uterus at the time of ovulation, increasing the chances of the egg and sperm meeting.

In vitro fertilization (IVF)

Eggs and sperm are combined in the laboratory to obtain embryos, one of which is then transferred into the mother's uterus.

IVF-ICSI

A variant of IVF in which a single sperm is injected directly into the egg — particularly indicated in cases of male infertility.

Frequently asked questions

When should I see a doctor about fertility?

It is advisable to consult after 12 months of regular intercourse without pregnancy, or after 6 months if the woman is over 35. Earlier consultation is possible in case of known history.

Is IVF painful?

Most steps are well tolerated. Egg retrieval is performed under anesthesia and embryo transfer is generally painless. Our team ensures your comfort throughout the journey.

How long does a MAR journey take?

The duration varies by technique and situation. An IVF cycle generally spans a few weeks, from stimulation to the pregnancy test. The initial work-up helps estimate your timeline.

Do I need to be married for MAR?

Care is intended for couples committed to a parental project. At the first consultation, we outline the conditions and documents required.
