The first live birth using Fertilo has ushered in a new era of fertility treatments. This revolutionary ovarian support cell (OSC) technology, developed by Gameto, is transforming how eggs are matured for in-vitro fertilisation (IVF). By offering a safer, faster, and less invasive alternative to traditional methods, Fertilo is giving hope to women around the world.
What Makes Fertilo Different?
Fertilo is unlike anything seen in fertility care before. Traditional IVF involves 10–14 days of high-dose hormone injections to mature eggs inside the body. This can be physically and emotionally draining for many women. Fertilo, on the other hand, uses engineered ovarian support cells to mature eggs outside the body in a laboratory setting.

This unique process eliminates up to 80% of hormone injections. Instead of enduring weeks of treatment, women can complete a cycle in just three days. “Fertilo simplifies the process, making it less invasive and far more comfortable,” said Dr Dina Radenkovic, Gameto’s CEO and co-founder.
A Safer Path to Parenthood
The first live birth using Fertilo also highlights its safety advantages. High-dose hormone treatments used in traditional IVF carry risks, including ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). Fertilo significantly reduces these risks by minimising the need for hormonal stimulation.
For many women, the emotional toll of frequent injections and side effects can be overwhelming. Fertilo addresses these challenges by offering a gentler, more straightforward approach. Patients have described feeling a sense of relief and reassurance knowing the process involves fewer physical and emotional burdens.
One mother, who gave birth using Fertilo, expressed her gratitude: “With fewer injections and a more comfortable process, Fertilo gave me hope during a very personal journey. It made everything easier, both physically and emotionally.”
Why the First Live Birth Matters

The first live birth using Fertilo isn’t just a scientific achievement—it’s a symbol of what’s possible for women struggling with fertility issues. This breakthrough demonstrates the potential of OSC technology to improve egg quality and increase the likelihood of successful pregnancies.
By maturing eggs outside the body, Fertilo represents a significant leap forward in assisted reproductive technology (ART). The streamlined process doesn’t just shorten treatment times; it also opens up new possibilities for women who may not have been candidates for traditional IVF.
Global Reach and Growing Availability
Gameto is making Fertilo more widely available, with regulatory clearance already secured in markets like Australia, Japan, and several countries in Latin America. In the United States, the technology is undergoing Phase 3 trials, moving closer to becoming a standard option for fertility care.
This expansion is part of Gameto’s mission to make fertility treatments more accessible to women worldwide. “We want to remove the barriers that make IVF so challenging,” explained Dr Radenkovic. “Fertilo is a step toward creating a future where fertility treatments are safer, faster, and more patient-centred.”
Redefining Fertility Care for the Future
The first live birth using Fertilo marks a turning point in reproductive medicine. This innovation isn’t just about improving outcomes—it’s about improving the entire experience of fertility treatment. By reducing risks, shortening treatment cycles, and making the process more accessible, Fertilo is giving women new opportunities to achieve their dreams of starting a family.
For those embarking on their fertility journeys, Fertilo represents hope and progress. It’s a reminder that science and compassion can come together to create life-changing solutions. As this technology continues to expand, it’s clear that Fertilo is more than a breakthrough—it’s the future of fertility care.
