Anya told us to think about the important factors to us, such as cost, success rates, distance from home, and the support they offer at the clinic. She was also quick to shout about The Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA) as a very important tool. Their website has a list of all clinics licensed to offer IVF and ICSI in the UK, which in and of itself is a good place to start if you are trying to find out which clinics may be suitable for you.

I was interested to hear from Prof Geeta Nargund that mild or natural IVF would, in her opinion, be a viable option for women with low ovarian reserve. Being that I have POI myself, I was always advised not to go for this option because I would produce so few eggs. Prof Nargund is indeed a pioneer in the field of Natural and Mild IVF.
