The guidelines stipulate that fertility clinics must take into
consideration the welfare of any child born as a result of the
treatment and of any other existing child. This does not exclude any
patient from being considered for the treatment.
During the consultation, several issues will be discussed including;
• Your commitment to having a child and providing a stable and supportive environment.
• Medical, social and family history.
• Any risk to the well being of the potential child.
• Implications of gamete donation if applicable
You will be asked to fill in a questionnaire re. the welfare of the child.
