Leaders in fertility care and reproductive medicine

Infertility is the inability to get pregnant after 12 months of regular, unprotected sex for women younger than 35 or after six months for women age 35 or older.

Mass General Brigham is home to one of the nation’s leading infertility and reproductive medicine programs. We provide expert evaluations, advanced treatments, and compassionate care for every stage of the fertility journey.

With a full-service, in-house fertility lab and advanced assisted reproductive technologies, we offer a range of treatment options supported by clinical expertise and evidence-based care.

Our approach to fertility care

From identifying potential causes of infertility to exploring reproductive surgery, fertility preservation, and assisted reproductive technologies, we offer a full range of care to meet your needs.

IVF and assisted reproductive technology (ART)

For some patients, in vitro fertilization (IVF) and other assisted reproductive technologies may offer a path to pregnancy. From IVF and embryo transfer to genetic testing and fertility preservation, our specialists help you understand your options and develop a personalized treatment plan based on your needs and goals.

Learn more about our IVF/ART Program.

Specialized infertility services

Many medical and hormonal factors can make it hard to conceive.

Our team provides thorough infertility exams, including:

  • Hormone testing
  • Ovarian reserve assessment
  • Imaging scans
  • Semen analysis

We find the underlying causes of infertility or recurrent pregnancy loss and guide you toward tailored treatment options.

Fertility preservation

Treatments for cancer and other conditions can affect your future fertility, or you may simply want to preserve fertility to build a family later in life. We serve people of all gender identities who want to preserve their fertility.

We offer the latest techniques, such as:

  • Egg freezing
  • Embryo freezing
  • Ovarian tissue freezing
  • Sperm freezing
Reproductive surgery

Our surgeons perform reproductive procedures to help restore and support fertility. These procedures may be used to:

  • Break up pelvic or uterine scar tissue that can interfere with conception
  • Correct congenital uterine abnormalities to improve pregnancy outcomes
  • Treat ectopic pregnancies
  • Remove ovarian cysts, uterine polyps, or fibroids that may affect fertility
  • Reverse tubal ligations for patients who wish to conceive again
  • Treat endometriosis while actively receiving fertility care
Preimplantation genetic testing and diagnosis

Certain genetic conditions can impact fertility or lead to recurrent pregnancy loss. By combining IVF with genetic testing, we help reduce the risk of passing on inherited conditions and reduce the risk of chromosomal abnormalities in offspring.

We begin by testing prospective parents for specific genetic disorders. We then use preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) to screen embryos created through IVF and select embryos without identified genetic conditions for transfer to the uterus.
