The transition from being a couple to a family is only natural and one of the more beautiful stages for any couple. However, not everyone can make this transition smoothly. There can be several factors that affect the success rate of natural conception.
Most doctors at fertility clinics in Singapore advice that couples under 40 should spend six to 12 months trying to conceive naturally before going for fertility treatments. However, for women under the age of 40 years, you may want to consult with a doctor earlier in the process to rule out any underlying causes that prevent natural conception.

Couples who are trying to conceive can help their chances by maintaining a healthy and active lifestyle. Experts report that people who are overweight or underweight will have difficulty conceiving.
Your doctor can also prescribe tablets that stimulate the growth of eggs in ovaries. Unfortunately, not all couples find success despite following the tips. Which is why the next obvious step in this journey to parenthood is visiting a fertility clinic.
We’ve put together a comprehensive list of fertility clinics in Singapore that offer a variety of fertility treatments to help couples bring their own special little bundle of joy into the world.
