IVF in Alabama - What To Do Next?

IVF in Alabama - What To Do Next?

In light of recent legal developments surrounding the classification of frozen embryos as children, several hospitals in Alabama have taken the precautionary measure of temporarily suspending their In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) services. This decision, driven by the uncertainty in the legal landscape and its implications for fertility treatments, has left many patients seeking alternative options for their fertility care.

At the Center for Human Reproduction (CHR) in New York City, we understand the concerns and anxieties that patients may be experiencing during this challenging time. Led by Dr. Norbert Gleicher, our team remains steadfast in our commitment to helping individuals and couples achieve their dreams of parenthood.

Despite the uncertainty of the legal environment, CHR stands ready to provide expert care and support to those navigating the complexities of fertility treatment. Through our remote management of patient cycles, individuals can receive personalized care from our experienced fertility specialists without the need for frequent in-person visits. Patients will only be required to visit our state-of-the-art facility in New York City for the actual procedures, minimizing disruption to their daily lives.

Furthermore, CHR offers the safe transfer of existing frozen embryos into our facility, ensuring continuity of care for patients affected by the suspension of IVF services in Alabama.
