    1. Hello, I am wondering if I can try a fertility treatment. I am 37 years old and trying for a year now I am not sure what requirements the clinics have. Thanks

      • Hi TaylorLR,

        In women over 36 years of age, it is recommended to go to an aissited reproductive clinic after 6 months of unprotected sex.

        Different clinics have different requirements for admission to infertility treatments, therefore, from inviTRA we recommend that you go to 2 or 3 clinics to inform you of the operation and treatments that best suit your needs.

        I hope I have helped you,

        Best regards.
