Adjuvant Medical Information

Adjuvant Medical Information

What is adjuvant therapy?

Adjuvant therapy, also known as ‘add-ons’, adjunct, complementary or alternative therapies, are recognised  as  an  addition  to  standard  assisted  reproductive  treatment  and  may  be recommended to you with the intention to increase your success during your fertility treatment.

There are numerous options available to you when accessing adjuvant therapies, including but not limited to the technology in laboratories, medical procedures, prescribed medications, nutritional supplements,  and  traditional  medicines  such  as  Chinese  medicine,  including

acupuncture. At present, the effectiveness of many adjuvant therapies is unknown, with little to no evidence that they will increase the success of your treatment or improve live birth rates. However, your health care provider may recommend adjuvant therapy when considering your medical history and tailoring your treatment plan.

It is important to consider the effectiveness, risks and financial costs of adjuvant therapies.
