FIV Recoletos : Infertility clinic and IVF treatment in Spain

Easy access from the UK - state of the art infertility treatment in Spain - no waiting lists

Since opening in 1991, the FIV Recoletos IVF clinics in Spain have achieved much praise due to the joint efforts and work of their medical and technical teams. FIV Recoletos started out in Valladolid in January 1991 with programmes for artificial insemination by husband or by donor, which required the creation of a sperm bank, as well as programmes for in vitro fertilisation. 

In 1992 and 1993, they added two new programmes for embryo cryopreservation and egg donation. This was followed by intracitoplasmatic sperm injection (ICSI) treatment in 1995. Pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD), a technique introduced in 2001, consists of selecting healthy embryos from carriers of genetic illnesses before they are implanted, and is also used for couples who suffer repeated miscarriages and implantation failures.

New FIV Recoletos IVF clinics in Madrid, Ciudad Real, Guadalajara and Valladolid

In 2005, two new assisted reproduction centres were opened in Ciudad Real and Guadalajara and both won tenders to carry out their work under the auspices of SESCAM (the Castilla la Mancha Health Service). In 2006 the Madrid IVF centre was opened at the Hospital Nuestra Señora de América.

Expansion in southern Spain: Jerez de la Frontera, Cadiz and Jaen

In 2008 a new clinic was opened  in Jerez de la Frontera, in 2009 in Cadiz and soon in Jaen. All with the same professionalism as the rest of the group of IVF clinics Recoletos.
 

Over the years, FIV Recoletos has created a patient care programme to ensure that assisted reproduction procedures are as comfortable and satisfactory as possible. They continually strive to deliver quality, success, improvement and good patient care.

Assisted reproduction

Why are we unable to have a child? This question is unfortunately getting more and more common due to a variety of determining factors. It is a question which many couples have to face when they see the months passing by and the much desired child, for whom so many things have so often been planned, does not arrive.

Artificial insemination - consists of inserting into the uterus a sample of semen which has previously been prepared in a laboratory to concentrate and capacitate the sperm to give it a greater chance of starting a pregnancy. 

In vitro fertilisation - is combining sperm and eggs in a laboratory in order to bring about the fertilisation of the eggs. The resulting embryos are inserted into the uterus and then they only have to complete the implantation stage for there to be a pregnancy.

Intracitoplasmatic sperm injection - classical IVF consists of leaving the sperm and eggs together so they fertilisation arises by itself. In some cases, however, it is necessary to carry out intracitoplasmatic sperm injection (or ICSI for short). This consists of actively introducing or microinjecting the sperm into each egg. 

Pre-implantation genetic diagnosis - a diagnosis of embryos resulting from IVF and discovering which ones are genetically normal. Following PGD those which have passed the test are transferred to the uterus to bring about a pregnancy.

Egg donation

In vitro fertilisation with eggs which have been donated anonymously is an assisted reproduction technique, which has now been used for many years. Its use lies in the fact that it makes pregnancy possible for women in whom pregnancy with their own eggs is very unlikely or even impossible for a variety of reasons.

Sperm bank

The introduction of ICSI has meant that the use of sperm donations has become less common. However, there are still cases where it is not possible to find sperm, even after carrying out a testicular biopsy.

Single women

In accordance with Spanish law, any woman has the right to request assisted reproduction treatment, whether she has a partner or not. Women without a partner who wish to have a child may, therefore, use a sperm sample provided by a donor for the purpose of bringing about a pregnancy.
