Your IVF Roadmap
What to Expect When You’re Expecting IVF
A clear, science-backed guide to understanding every step of your IVF journey
Your IVF Roadmap is a complete, patient-friendly course that walks you through the entire IVF process from start to finish. If you’re preparing for IVF, feeling overwhelmed by acronyms, medications, protocols, or what actually happens in the lab, this course gives you the clarity, confidence, and understanding you need to move forward with less fear and more control.
Created by an embryologist and fertility specialist, this course blends scientific accuracy with simple, compassionate explanations. You’ll learn exactly what each stage of IVF looks like—what your body is doing, what your medical team is doing, and what your embryologists are doing behind the scenes to care for your eggs and embryos. By the end, you’ll understand the full process from your first consultation to your embryo transfer and early pregnancy testing, including what influences your outcomes and how to advocate for your care.
This is the course you wish every clinic gave you before you started.
