Preconception to Pregnancy Management in Advanced Maternal Age Educational Event (for General Practitioners)

If you're a patient looking for our patient webinars, please click here.

Join us for an engaging and informative evening focused on reproductive health, hosted at the elegant Winnifred's. This educational dinner is designed for General Practitioners and will explore key topics including:

• Preconception & Initial Assessment
• Fertility treatments Options
• Managing Pregnancy in Advanced Maternal Age

Supporting patients on their fertility and reproductive health journey is both empowering and complex. As more individuals and families choose to delay pregnancy until later in life, new challenges emerge — not only for fertility specialists, but also for General Practitioners who are often the first point of contact in this journey.

Monash IVF is proud to present this interactive session tailored for medical professionals. We invite you to join us for a night of clinical insight, collegial discussion, and fine dining.
