Kinderwunschpraxis

At the fertility practice on Bremgartenstrasse in Bern, Dr. med. Markus Bleichenbacher works as an FMH specialist in gynecology and obstetrics with a focus on gynecological endocrinology, reproductive medicine, and surgical gynecology. He also holds an MSc in Clinical Embryology. The practice has a second location at the Lorze Medical Center in Cham (canton of Zug), which makes access easier for patients from Central Switzerland. The range of treatments includes hormonal stimulation, intrauterine insemination (IUI), IVF and ICSI, cryopreservation of eggs and embryos, preimplantation genetic testing (PGT), as well as egg donation and sperm donation. For stimulation treatment, the practice relies on letrozole (Femara®) as the first-choice agent, especially in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), where its superiority over the formerly common clomiphene citrate has been demonstrated. Alternatively, low-dose FSH or HMG injections are used, which patients can self-administer after instruction. All stimulation cycles are consistently monitored by ultrasound in order to detect the risk of higher-order multiple pregnancies early and to adjust therapy if needed. In reviews, patients describe empathetic care in which fears after miscarriages are also taken seriously. The practice can be reached in German, English, and French. With a Google rating of 4.6 out of 5 stars, patient satisfaction is reflected in the feedback available.
