My fiancé and I have our first consultation on Wednesday to discuss the possibility of us ubdergoing IVF. I am 44 and my fiancé is 43. What kind of questions should we be asking. I have my letter of referral and our tests.

Many thanks.

Thanks for this.

I would be wanting to find out what treatment he recommends and why, costs, likelihood of success and information about fertility counselling so you have professional support. Good luck.

Thanks for this. Good luck to you too.

I found my 1st consultation was him asking us questions and making sure all tests were done.. the time i went he told we would be having icsi and were able to ask questions. then we went to a group ivf session where they explain ivf and you see the councilor etc..
