About the department

The Department of Reproductive Medicine at the Hirslanden Andreasclinic Cham Zug Cham offers the full range of modern assisted reproductive technologies for conception. For the onset of long-awaited pregnancy in women, the department's specialists apply all their clinical experience, as well as medical and technical resources of laboratories. The department is headed by Dr. med. Markus Bleichenbacher.

The first stage of treatment is individual consultation followed by the comprehensive diagnostics for detection of the causes of infertility, which can be very diverse. According to the diagnostic results, the medical specialist will decide on the most suitable technique or a combination of several techniques. The department's doctors strongly support couples on the way to the desired pregnancy.

The department’s range of medical services includes:

  • A set of preliminary examinations for women (hormonal status, tests for the presence of antibodies, assessment of the ovarian reserve, assessment of the endometrium, assessment of the fallopian tube patency, etc.), as well as male fertility assessment (spermogram)
  • Ovarian stimulation using tablet or injection hormone therapy (drug selection and dosage are determined individually)
  • Intrauterine insemination (performed in the absence of changes in the woman's uterus, as well as in the absence of sperm pathology in the partner; the essence of the procedure is the collection of high-quality sperm, which is inserted into the uterine cavity using a catheter)
  • Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) – in vitro fertilization with micro-injection of sperm into the egg
  • In vitro fertilization (a female egg is fertilized by male sperm outside the body – "in vitro")
  • Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (identification of genetic abnormalities in the embryo before implantation in the uterus, that is, before pregnancy)
  • Embryo transfer (transfer of embryos into the uterine cavity) – the procedure is carried out 3-5 days after fertilization
  • Cryopreservation
    • Embryo cryopreservation
    • Vitrification
    • Ovarian tissue cryopreservation
