Becky & Ben's Fertility Spotlight

Embryo Glue, Anyone? The Truth About IVF Add-On Treatments

06 Nov 2025

Description

What exactly are fertility add-ons? And are they safe, effective and worth the money? We speak to fertility specialist, Dr. Tomáš Bagócsi, from Reprofit, which has clinics in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. From embryo glue to PGT-A genetic testing, assisted hatching to time-lapse cameras, Dr. Tomáš summarises the risks and potential benefits of ten of the most popular add-on treatments. We reflect on the cautious approach taken by the HFEA (the regulator of UK fertility clinics), challenging its wariness. Skilled doctors and clinics, Dr. Tomáš argues, can be trusted to recommend add-ons responsibly. Larger trials may be needed, but this doesn’t mean add-ons should be disregarded. An honest and informative interview with a fertility doctor at the top of his game.                                                   Check out the podcast website: https://fertility-spotlight.comInstagram: @fertilityspotlightFacebook: @fertilityspotlightProducer: David Roper, Heavy Entertainment Hosted on Acast.
