How long does treatment take?
This depends on the type of treatment you are having. For example, if you are having IVF then you will find that this is carried out as a ‘cycle’ which takes 6 to 8 weeks.
GIFT can take slightly longer.
IUI can take around 4 to 5 weeks from the start of treatment until a pregnancy test.
Your clinic will be better able to advise you about timescales for your treatment.
