Book a Bulk-Billed Fertility Assessment^**

If you find that falling pregnant hasn’t happened as quickly or easily as you thought it would, you’re not alone. Across Australia, 1 in 6 couples will struggle to fall pregnant.

One of the simplest and quickest ways to find out what’s meddling with your baby-making is to come into Genea for a Bulk-Billed Fertility Assessment^** with our Fertility GP. The Fertility Assessment is recommended if you’re over 35 and have been trying to conceive for 6 months or under 35 and have been trying to conceive for 12 months.

A Fertility Assessment is the first step towards getting a clear understanding of what tests may need to be undertaken, whether you can keep trying to conceive naturally or if you need further assistance.
