Fertility care has come a long way over the last decade. From cutting-edge genetic testing to revolutionary ovarian rejuvenation techniques, today’s assisted reproduction landscape is more advanced than ever. However, in countries like Canada and the United States, access to these treatments often comes with long wait times, strict regulations, and very high costs.
That’s why many individuals and couples are looking overseas for more accessible, yet equally high-quality fertility options. One country standing out? Spain. With nearly four decades of experience in reproductive medicine, Spain is not only highly specialized but also legally progressive, technologically advanced, and surprisingly affordable.
Why Go Abroad for Fertility Treatments?
Choosing to undergo fertility treatment outside of your home country is a personal decision, but for many, it’s also a logical one. International clinics, especially in Europe, offer:
More treatment options, including techniques restricted in North America
No waiting lists
Experienced, multilingual medical teams
Comprehensive care packages that include testing, ultrasounds, and remote coordination
“One of the advantages of seeking treatment in Spain is how streamlined everything is for international patients. At Vida Fertility, we organize ultrasounds, blood tests, and even initial consultations remotely,” explains Dr Katharina Spies, Medical Director at Vida Fertility Madrid.
What Are the Latest Advances in Fertility Available Abroad?
Many fertility clinics in Europe are now offering innovations that are still limited or cost-prohibitive in North America. Among them:
1. PGT-A Genetic Testing
Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Aneuploidy helps identify chromosomally normal embryos before transfer, increasing implantation rates and reducing miscarriage risks - especially for women over 35.
2. Dual Stimulation (DuoStim) Protocols
This protocol allows for two egg retrievals within a single cycle, maximizing the number of oocytes collected - ideal for patients with low ovarian reserve or those in fertility preservation scenarios.
3. PRGF Ovarian Rejuvenation
Platelet-Rich Growth Factor (PRGF) is a regenerative technique showing promising results in improving ovarian function, especially for women with poor ovarian response or early menopause.
4. Egg Freezing with AI Analysis
Some clinics now use artificial intelligence to assess the morphological and developmental quality of frozen oocytes, increasing the chances of future success in egg thawing and fertilization.
“Spain has been a leader in assisted reproduction for nearly 40 years. Our open legislation allows us to develop and apply advanced techniques, which means that professionals here gain much deeper, hands-on expertise,” says Dr Spies.
Why Spain Is a Fertility Destination Worth Considering
Spain is not only one of the most visited countries in the world - it's also a hub for fertility excellence. Clinics like Vida Fertility combine scientific rigor with boutique-style care, offering:
Highly trained, empathetic fertility specialists
Legal access to donor treatments (with anonymous donation)
PGT-A and other advanced techniques
Affordable packages for international patients
No waiting lists
Remote cycle coordination
Innovation Doesn’t Have to Cost a Fortune
Travelling abroad for fertility treatment might feel overwhelming at first, but with the right clinic, it becomes not just manageable, but empowering. You gain access to the latest technologies, top-tier care, and peace of mind, often at a much more accessible cost.
“We treat patients from all over the world who are simply looking for high-quality care, clarity, and results,” concludes Dr Spies. “At Vida Fertility, they find all of that - with the added advantage of personal attention and transparency every step of the way.”
