The initial consultation is a substantive, unhurried clinical appointment covering: in-depth review of your medical and fertility history; evaluation of all previous results; a clear written 8-week treatment plan; prescriptions issued for both partners where needed; supplement recommendations; referrals arranged where required; tests ordered where clinically indicated. At your 8-week review, the plan is refined based on any results received.

Your follow-up appointment is at 8 weeks. You leave your initial consultation with your full plan, prescriptions, and supplement recommendations already in hand. The 8-week window allows test results to return and treatment to take initial effect before the plan is reviewed and refined.

Four preparation steps:
(1) Connect with Ailish McEvoy at Women's Natural Path to begin cycle charting. womensnaturalpath.com/cycle-companion/

If unavailable, please send us an email to enquire about the next clinic date.
(4) Arrange a Peak+7 progesterone and oestrogen blood test, timed 7 days after your peak fertile day as identified through charting.
