IVF Medicine Brands



We treat patients from all over the world and while all doctors use the same basic medications for performing IVF treatment, because the brand names vary from country to country, there is often a lot of confusion as to what each medicine is and what it does. This simple table will help to clarify some of this confusion, so you can make sense of what doctors and patients in other parts of the world do.
