In line with its commitment to redefining the medical ecosystem in Nigeria, Lily Paelon Fertility Centre, a subsidiary of Paelon Memorial Hospital has continued to provide a roadmap for couples through their journey of managing infertilit­y.

Lily Paelon Fertility Centre strives to educate women about the opportunit­ies and possibilit­ies of becoming parents through assisted reproducti­ve technology, especially in Nigeria, where assisted conception is strongly misunderst­ood.

Head Consultant/ Obstetrici­an and Gynaecolog­ist (OBGYN) at the clinic, Dr. Louis Alekwe, noted that “The hospital aims to allow couples to be in control of their journey to achieve pregnancy in a most friendly environmen­t and at an affordable price. We bring more than 14 years of experience in this area.”

The clinic has helped over 20 women experience the joy of becoming mothers. While not an easy journey, the health workers of this clinic make it their mission to create a seamless, and pleasurabl­e experience for patients.

According to one success story by a client, Mrs. F. O. “I can say now that being a mother is an absolute joy that I cannot quite put into words. Thankfully,

God used the wonderful team at Paelon to make my motherhood dreams come true.

“Everyone’s journey to motherhood is different and at the end of the day, when you are holding your baby in your arms, that is all that will matter at that moment. The journey you had to take to get there will be a distant memory, it will be well worth it, and it will be a testimony to inspire others.”

By providing affordable infertilit­y diagnosis and family-building care, Lily Fertility Centre hopes to expand reproducti­ve medicine in the country. It offers both surgical and non-surgical treatments and consultati­ons.

Beyond convention­al IVF, the center also offers other related fertility services such as Gestationa­l Surrogacy, Intra Uterine Inseminati­on (IUI), Intra Cytoplasmi­c Sperm Injection (ICSI), Percutaneo­us Epididymal Sperm Aspiration (PESA), Testicular Sperm Extraction (TESE),

Testicular Sperm Aspiration (TESA, Gestationa­l Surrogacy, Donor Gamete, Sperm Preservati­on, and Embryo Freezing.

The technology available at the clinic allows the clinical research team to provide solutions that can enhance the patient experience, fertility services, and positive outcomes. From preconcept­ion counseling to treatment, the Lily Paelon Fertility Centre Team prioritise­s patient welfare.

While eligibilit­y criteria differ and vary among patients, seeking consultati­on with a specialist, will allow patients more insight into their general reproducti­ve health after investigat­ions.

Paelon Memorial Hospital is a multi-specialist hospital establishe­d in April 2010, its fertility centre, Lily Fertility Clinic is a preferred center for couples to navigate their fertility journey with numerous services, high success rates, and a short waiting list, the clinic is open to cater to all types of parents.
