Even if you’ve had trouble conceiving, there’s hope for a successful pregnancy thanks to medically advanced solutions called artificial insemination and assisted reproductive technologies. These strategies manipulate the eggs and sperm – either while still in the woman’s body or in a lab setting – to promote successful fertilization and implantation, or to allow for genetic testing.

Obstetricians at Sutter Medical Foundation can refer you to fertility clinics within our network that use procedures with proven track records of safety and success. The most commonly known are artificial insemination and in vitro fertilization, but we can select from a number of strategies – often in combination with each other – to meet your specific needs.

Doctors in the Sutter Health network who specialize in fertility, as well as obstetrics and gynecology, are supported by a team of nurses and laboratory technicians specifically trained in infertility treatment. Their insurance experts will help you understand costs related to treatment options and determine what coverage your plan may offer.
