Infertility Treatments
The Johns Hopkins Fertility Center provides cutting-edge treatment for patients suffering from infertility. Our center prides itself on our individualized, tailored treatment strategies that will help each patient achieve their family planning needs, including those with prior poor IVF outcomes. Because we are part of the Johns Hopkins network, we are able to coordinate care across multiple specialties to achieve the healthiest pregnancy outcome.
Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) procedures include all fertility treatments in which both eggs and sperm are manipulated outside the human body by medical staff prior to fertilization and implantation in the woman’s uterus. In general, ART procedures involve surgically removing eggs from a woman’s ovaries, combining them with sperm in the laboratory, and returning them to the woman’s body or donating them to another woman.

Fertility Preservation
For patients facing a cancer diagnosis, or those who want to preserve embryos and sperm for future use, we offer embryo, oocyte and sperm cryopreservation (freezing).

Egg Donation Program
Have you ever considered egg donation? Healthy women aged 21-30 may be eligible to donate eggs to help couple's achieve their dream of starting a family — and receive compensation for it.
Other Fertility Services
Although the Johns Hopkins Fertility Center is not a commercial sperm bank or a surrogacy agency, we do help guide patients who wish to either use donor sperm or a surrogate to achieve a pregnancy. Our fertility specialists can meet with you to determine your specific needs and guide you to the appropriate resources.
