The 9 Best Fertility and IVF Clinics in Paris

Couples who want every specialist involved in fertility under one roof will find it at La Maison de la Fertilité. The team on Avenue Gourgaud brings together gynaecologists, an andrologist and a geneticist, as well as psychologists, nutritionists and an acupuncturist. Care runs from the first workup and ultrasound to IVF, fertility preservation and repeated miscarriage. Evening appointments two nights a week help those who work during the day.

Patients in the east of Paris can do most of the groundwork for assisted reproduction at this centre in Nogent-sur-Marne, near the RER A station. Four gynaecologists with assisted reproduction experience offer a one-day pre-treatment workup with consultation, ultrasound and a transfer test. Stimulation, insemination and IVF follow-up are handled here, while IVF itself takes place at Clinique de la Muette. Video consultations are available.

English-speaking couples will find an English version of Ova's website and a section for international patients. The clinic in Neuilly, by Les Sablons metro, handles consultations, the fertility workup for both partners and IVF follow-up. Egg retrieval and IVF take place at the American Hospital of Paris. Teleconsultations are possible from France or abroad, depending on the doctor and the reason for the visit.

Women whose fertility problems may be linked to endometriosis or the uterus will find both sides handled at Institut Médical Reprogynes. Dr Chadi Yazbeck combines assisted reproduction, with stimulation, insemination and IVF, with diagnostic and operative hysteroscopy and benign gynaecological surgery. The Repro-Check programme offers a complete fertility workup by appointment. The practice on Avenue Victor-Hugo has flexible slots outside working hours.

Couples at the start of the process who want a quick, thorough workup will find a one-day fertility assessment at La Clinique des Femmes on Avenue de Villiers. Dr Caterina Ferretti specialises in gynaecological ultrasound and infertility and practises reproductive medicine at Hôpital Antoine-Béclère. The assessment combines ultrasound, hormone tests, hysterosonography, hysteroscopy and a HyFoSy tubal exam. Diagnosis of deep endometriosis is another focus.

Patients in the north of Paris can see a reproductive medicine doctor near Place de Clichy at the IMF centre, where Dr Grégoire Le Conte practises. Three of the six doctors at this address list reproductive medicine or assisted reproduction among their fields, one with a focus on endometriosis. Ultrasound can be done at every appointment, and diagnostic hysteroscopy takes place in the on-site surgical room. HyFoSy tubal tests are also performed.

Women who want their fertility tests and monitoring near Étoile can turn to this centre on Avenue Carnot, which divides its work between women's health, infertility, maternity and surgery. Ovulation stimulation and intrauterine insemination are offered, with IVF or ICSI proposed when simpler methods fail. Monitoring ultrasound, HyFoSy, hysterosonography and hysteroscopy are part of its exams. It opens until 7 pm on weekdays and on Saturday mornings.

Couples who need IVF itself, rather than consultations alone, should know the fertility centre at Clinique de la Muette in the 16th, where the procedures take place. It offers IVF, ICSI and fertility preservation. Gynaecologists, biologists and psychologists specialised in fertility work together, and each patient has a dedicated contact throughout. Private practices such as the Paris Est fertility centre in Nogent send their patients here for IVF.

English speakers will find the full range of assisted reproduction at the American Hospital of Paris, a private non-profit hospital in Neuilly whose website is in English and French. Its reproductive medicine unit has operated since 1984 and was among the first in Europe to use ICSI. Embryos are grown in EmbryoScope+ time-lapse incubators, and a mobile app lets couples follow their development.
