We are pleased to announce extended opening times for Alderley Edge. 
Fertility treatment can involve having a lot of different kinds of tests at different stages of the process. One of the tests that your fertility specialist might recommend is an ultrasound scan. If you’ve been referred for IVF ultrasound scans in Cheshire, then you can visit us to have them.
Ultrasound scans are a type of imaging test that we can use to safely and painlessly look inside your body. You might need to have scans at several different points during your IVF treatment in Cheshire so that we can find out what is happening in your reproductive system. We will share the results with your fertility clinic so that they can use this information to plan out your treatment.
By seeing inside your body with ultrasound we can find out:
If there are any medical problems that could be affecting your fertility, and which may need to be treated before you start IVF. For example, you might have ovarian cysts or uterine fibroids that need to be reduced or removed to improve the chances of success.Whether you are ovulating (releasing mature eggs). If you aren’t ovulating naturally then it may still be possible for your fertility clinic to stimulate the process with medication, but you might also need to consider using donor eggs.How well your body is responding to the medication used to stimulate over-production of mature eggs before they are collected for IVF. We can check the effects of the medication and tell your fertility clinic when there are lots of mature eggs ready to be collected.If your womb is ready for the embryo transfer. We will check the womb lining and measure its thickness. The embryos should be transferred when the lining is at its thickest in order to give them the best chance to implant. We’ll tell your fertility clinic when you are ready for the next step of fertility treatment.Whether the IVF treatment was a success. We can perform an early pregnancy scan from just 7 weeks to confirm the pregnancy and to check that it is viable. We’ll then be able to continue providing all of the ultrasound scans that you need until your baby arrives.We can perform IVF ultrasound scans in Cheshire to help with fertility assessments before you begin treatment, to check your response to the fertility drugs, and to ensure that procedures like egg collections and embryo transfer are performed at the best time. The information that these scans provide will ensure that you get the best possible care and have the highest chances of success.
If you need to arrange IVF ultrasound scans in Cheshire, then it’s easy to make an appointment at The Birth Company. We can perform all of the scans that you need before and during your IVF treatment and we’ll be here to provide the scans you need during pregnancy too.

The sonographer was ready as soon as I arrived, and she was extremely calming, personable and professional. The scan and blood test where efficient without feeling rushed and all very easy. These appointments can feel uneasy and make you feel anxious but I felt reassured and in professional hands the whole time
I saw Kate throughout my first pregnancy and am now doing so again with my second. She is absolutely amazing, she explains everything really clearly, and has answered all sorts of bizarre questions and worries I have had. On top of being clinically excellent she is also just the loveliest person and always a pleasure to see.

We had the harmony test with the Birth Company and had a reassurance scan with sonographer Kirsty McGarry who was absolutely lovely and really put our minds at rest. We had been scared by our NHS dating scan and left feeling like there was something wrong. We explained the situation and was treated very professionally and with good care. Also speedy appointments also as I had phone in the morning and got an appointment by afternoon. So thankful.

Really friendly, efficient service. Great experience overall. Had the Panorama. My appointment was with Kate who was absolutely fantastic. The results came really quickly. Have a comparison with private healthcare elsewhere and must say that The Birth Company was just how I would like to be treated when I pay for medical services - attentively, calmly, friendly, in a pleasant environment that doesn't look like hospital. Top marks!

When I first contacted the Birth Company I spoke to Danielle. She was fantastic. She went above & beyond to put me at easy & make the journey from Kent as stress free as possible. Every staff member that myself and my husband have come into contact with have been approachable, professional and friendly. Kate scanned me the first time and put me completely at easy. Lisa on reception is professional and very approachable. Highly recommended

Donald was so lovely! I was so nervous as I have a bad history and he was super quick and confirmed my baby's heartbeat as quickly as he could. He spent time showing me the baby and the anatomy and it was the best money I have ever spent! The reception girls were lovely too - considering they deal with babies day in day out they were super excited for me! Thank you so much one and all! If only I lived in London and could have all my scans with you!
