On May 31, the Health Information Center "Medical Karaj" together with Memorial Shishli Hospital will organize free on-site examinations for couples with reproductive problems from Bulgaria in Istanbul. They will be carried out by specialists from the team of prof. Semra Kahraman, known for her high success rate in IVF procedures and individual approach to each case. Free transportation will be provided for families with a scheduled appointment, and pre-registration is available by calling. 0879009742.
The Center for Reproductive Medicine at Memorial Hospitals is a preferred destination for families from around the world who are unable to have a baby naturally. Each year, around 4,000 couples, many from abroad, undergo in vitro procedures there. The main reason for the centre's international reputation lies in its high success rates, which are above the global average. Clinical pregnancy is achieved in about 60% of cases, and about 40% result in a live-born baby. For its success in the field of reproductive medicine, Memorial Hospitals received the "Best Fertility Treatment Centre 2015" award from the Medical Travel Awards in London.
The head of the team at the Center for In Vitro Fertilization at Memorial is prof. Semra Kahraman, a world-renowned physician and President of the International Association for Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGDIS). She leads a team of over 70 specialists equipped with the latest technologies in this field. As a result of their work, over 30,000 babies have been born in 24 years. With the help of experienced professionals and modern technology, it is possible to achieve results in almost all cases of problem pregnancy. It is also possible to have an embryo made up of 4-8 cells carefully examined before implantation in the uterus using the methods of preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) to rule out the risk of genetic abnormalities and conditions such as thalassaemia or haemophilia.
About 10-15% of couples experience reproductive problems. Consultation with a doctor is recommended if pregnancy is not realized naturally for a year, and if the woman is over 35 years of age - for 6 months. Menstrual cycle disorders, miscarriages, the presence of chromosomal diseases in either parent also suggest a visit to a specialist.
Now, families from Bulgaria who are interested in the services of the Center for Reproductive Medicine at Memorial Hospitals will be able to have a first free examination and inform themselves about the treatment options in their case on May 31, on-site in Istanbul.
Places are limited and advance registration is available by calling. 0879009742.
