Encino Fertility Clinic

If you are looking for a fertility clinic in Encino, California, HRC Fertility has an office in this Southern California location to make fertility treatment as convenient as possible for you.

Four fertility doctors see patients at the Encino fertility clinic location. Robert Boostanfar, MD, FACOG, Alison Peck, MD, FACOGDavid Tourgeman, MD, FACOG, and Irene Woo, MD, FACOG diagnose and treat patients for a wide range of infertility problems with the most advanced reproductive technology.

HRC Fertility has always been on the cutting edge of fertility treatments. The California fertility clinic established the first IVF ICSI (intracytoplasmic sperm injection) pregnancy on the West coast. In 1989, HRC Fertility performed one of the first cases of preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) for a sex-linked genetic disorder.

Known for being a pioneer in infertility research, HRC Fertility offers many services at the Encino fertility clinic, including fertility tests such as the Clomid Challenge Test to measure ovarian reserve, hysteroscopy, and laparoscopy. Fertility treatments include the most advanced techniques in intrauterine insemination (IUI) and in vitro fertilization (IVF) with the ability to have preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) for genetic disease screening or gender selection. In addition, the fertility clinic in Encino offers egg freezing (fertility preservation) as well as options for third-party reproduction, including sperm donation, embryo donation, and surrogacy.

 

Encino IVF Investigational Study

The PROGRESS Study is an investigational study to determine if Progesterone-IBSA administered as an injection under the skin (subcutaneous) is safe and effective in supporting the implantation and early pregnancy following a frozen embryo transfer (FET).

IVF Treatments in Encino

IVF in Encino gives hope to aspiring parents facing infertility. Our Encino fertility clinic is dedicated to supporting you through every step of your fertility journey.

Our experienced physicians can help guide you through your options if you face any of the following issues:

  • Fallopian tube damage

Our goal is to provide expert care and support throughout your fertility journey. Schedule your visit to our Encino fertility clinic today.

Apart from our IVF treatments, we offer a range of supplementary services to support your fertility journey.

Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT)

PGT checks embryos for genetic abnormalities before implantation in the uterus. Preimplantation Genetic Testing is divided into three specialized types:

  • PGT-A (Aneuploidy): Checks whether embryos have the correct number of chromosomes to mitigate chromosomal abnormalities that may lead to miscarriages or genetic disorders.
  • PGT-M (Monogenic/Single-Gene Disorders): Checks embryos for specific inherited conditions caused by mutations in a single gene.
  • PGT-SR (Structural Rearrangements): Checks embryos for genetic imbalances caused by chromosomal rearrangements in the parents.

PGT is a cornerstone of our comprehensive approach to fertility treatment and increases the likelihood of a healthy pregnancy.

Semen Analysis

It’s just as important to evaluate the male partner before embarking on the IVF journey. Semen analysis allows us to assess sperm count and volume to determine if male factor infertility could be a contributing issue.

Book your consultation at our reproductive center in Encino to discuss your IVF treatment options with our fertility doctors.

Mini IVF

Mini IVF is a less invasive version of traditional IVF treatment. Mini IVF relies on oral medications like clomiphene citrate (Clomid) and minimal doses of injectable hormones to retrieve fewer eggs, prevent premature ovulation, and enhance egg quality.

Schedule a consultation with one of our fertility doctors at our Encino clinic if mini IVF sounds like a path you’d like to explore.

Single Embryo Transfer (SET)

In Single Embryo Transfer (SET) treatment, we transfer one carefully selected embryo into the uterus to reduce the risks associated with multiple pregnancies, such as premature birth, pre-eclampsia, congenital disabilities, and gestational diabetes.

Upon selecting the embryo to be transferred, our advanced egg-freezing services at our Encino fertility clinic let us store additional embryos for future use.

We’re here to help you explore your options and determine if SET is the treatment for you.

LGBTQ+ Family Building at Encino

At our LGBTQ+ fertility clinic in Encino, our physicians are committed to helping aspiring parents who are part of the LGBTQ+ community achieve their dreams of parenthood via various fertility procedures, including IVF and IUI.

Family Planning Considerations

When planning your family, it’s important to consider things such as:

  • Choosing an egg or sperm donor
  • Deciding on an anonymous or known donor
  • Determining who will carry the pregnancy or if surrogacy is needed

IVF for Gay and Lesbian Aspiring Parents

Our Encino fertility clinic provides IVF options such as:

  • IVF with donor eggs and sperm from one or both partners implanted into a surrogate
  • IVF with donor eggs and donor sperm implanted into a surrogate

Same-Sex IUI For Aspiring Parents in Encino

IUI treatment involves placing donor sperm in the uterus of the partner who will carry the baby, timed with ovulation to enhance the chances of pregnancy.

Surrogacy for LGBTQ+ Family Planning

Another common fertility option for same-sex aspiring parents is surrogacy. This involves a person carrying the pregnancy for the couple. Surrogacy may be arranged through an agency or independently.

Third-Party Reproductive Options For Aspiring Parents

Our LGBTQ+ fertility clinic in Encinon offers other programs for aspiring parents, such as gestational surrogacy and the medical screening of egg donors.
