Our state-of-the-art laboratory offers reliable and precise diagnostics for your individual needs.
We can get an initial picture of your fertility based on the fertility check, which forms the basis for all treatments. If additional tests are recommended, we can carry them out in our laboratory or in collaboration with our partner laboratories.
In line with the principle of ‘as much as necessary, as little as possible’, we only test the values that make sense in your case and thus offer you targeted, individualised diagnostics.
Using state-of-the-art equipment and modern diagnostics, we offer a wide range of laboratory medical services to customise your treatment to your individual needs.
In our precise hormone diagnostics, we analyse nine important biomarkers to identify and treat hormonal imbalances in women.
For men experiencing difficulties conceiving, we offer targeted hormone diagnostics. This involves analysing five key biomarkers to rule out or identify hormonal causes.
Our infection diagnostics identify antibodies against various infections that can impact your fertility.
A basic blood test, also known as a small blood count, can provide indications of anemia, inflammation or infections that can impact your fertility.
We regularly measure the hCG value (human chorionic gonadotropin) in your blood to determine and monitor the progress of your pregnancy.
Sometimes, difficulties conceiving can also be traced back to a hidden nutrient deficiency, such as iron or vitamin D.
