Services

In-Vitro Fertilization

Our IVF program combines advanced reproductive technology with personalized care to maximize pregnancy success rates. The process involves egg retrieval, laboratory fertilization, and embryo transfer, all performed in our state-of-the-art facility. Our experienced team monitors each cycle closely to optimize outcomes for patients facing infertility challenges.

Intra-Uterine Insemination

IUI treatment increases fertilization chances by placing prepared sperm directly into the uterus during ovulation. This minimally invasive procedure is often recommended for unexplained infertility or mild male factor issues. Our specialists coordinate timing with precise fertility monitoring to maximize success rates.

Egg Donor Program

Our egg donor program connects patients with screened donors through reputable egg banks. Recipients receive comprehensive counseling about donor selection, legal considerations, and treatment protocols. The process utilizes IVF technology to create embryos using donor eggs and partner or donor sperm.

Genetic Testing

Preimplantation genetic testing analyzes embryos for chromosomal abnormalities before transfer. This advanced screening improves IVF success rates by selecting genetically normal embryos. Our laboratory specialists perform biopsy procedures and coordinate with genetic analysis partners to provide accurate results.

Tubal Reversal

Tubal reversal surgery reconnects fallopian tubes to restore natural fertility. Our reproductive endocrinologists evaluate candidacy through comprehensive testing before performing this microsurgical procedure. The operation offers women an alternative to IVF for achieving pregnancy after previous tubal ligation.

Such a supportive environment and made our journey a reality when we weren't sure it would even be a possibility. We are so thankful for our experiences there. Thanks to Dr. Young and the amazing nurses and staff, we will definitely use them with our future needs as well.

Dr. Young did my tubal reversal in September 2021 and got a positive pregnancy test January 2022. I had my first prenatal appointment with my new OB doctor on February and had a sonogram, everything looks good and baby is doing fine : I'm so blessed and thankful, Dr. Young did an amazing job, I highly recommend him!

I would recommend this facility and their staff over and over again! They were very kind and understanding and would answer questions as they would arise! I had my surgery with Dr. Young on 3/11/22 and I must say him and his staff went over and beyond to care for me and to make sure that I understood everything that was taking place. The day after my surgery an on call nurse called me to check on me and to make sure I was doing okay and made sure that if I had any questions that I could give her a call and she would be glad to assist me.

I've had my follow up with Dr. Young and again he went over and beyond to answer all of my questions and never made it seem as if I were a bother! If you are having issues with fertility, you should go through Mid Iowa Fertility! You won't be disappointed!

Dr. Cooper and the nurses were wonderful to work with and they have blessed us with a beautiful boy who is now 3 years old! We were successful on our first round of IVF. We are now 20 weeks pregnant with another baby boy. Forever grateful for this team and highly recommend this clinic!
