What makes s***m healthy? 🧬

When it comes to understanding fertility, three key s***m quality factors matter most.

✅ Low Count (Oligozoos***mia) — a higher s***m count means a better chance of reaching and fertilizing an egg.

✅ Low Motility (Asthenozoos***mia) — strong, steady swimming s***m are essential for reaching the egg.

✅ Morphology Defects (Teratozoos***mia) — refers to the shape and structure of the s***m. Healthy, well-formed s***m are more likely to fertilize successfully.

These three measures form the foundation of a semen analysis and help provide valuable insight into reproductive health.

We’re always looking for ways to grow and improve. We were thrilled to welcome Dr. Yifei Liu to our clinic for a behind-the-scenes tour of our lab.

Dr. Liu, a Senior Embryologist & IVF Laboratory Director at Penn State College of Medicine, had the chance to connect with our Lab Director, Megan, at Yale. During his visit, he observed our team in action and shared some fantastic insights to collaborate on new and exciting laboratory techniques.

Big thanks, Dr. Liu, for stopping by and sharing your expertise. We loved having you!

Fertility care goes beyond medicine.

It’s about nurturing overall wellbeing, creating a healthy, welcoming space both at home and within. Simple habits like balanced nutrition, rest, mindfulness, and stress management can make a real difference, bringing balance and calm to the fertility journey.

Wishing everyone a relaxing weekend!

🪔 🪔 🪔 Happy Diwali 🪔 🪔 🪔

Diwali, also called Deepavali, is the festival of lights celebrating the triumph of light over darkness and knowledge over ignorance. In 2025, Diwali begins on October 20, with celebrations continuing into October 21.

A central part of the festival is lighting candles and clay lamps (diyas) to brighten homes and streets during the darkest night of the lunar cycle.

Wishing a joyful and luminous Diwali to all who celebrate, from everyone at Atlantic Fertility. 💛

"We are beyond grateful to Atlantic Fertility for helping us on our IVF journey.

A heartfelt thank-you to Dr. Bouzayen, for answering all our questions with patience and guiding us through the sea of tests with clarity and care. To Dr. Ori, for offering excellent care and support to my husband throughout this process. And to the other doctors involved in egg collection and embryo transfer — your expertise gave us confidence every step of the way.

To the nurses — Steph, Karen, and Kathleen — thank you for your compassion, warmth, and for promptly answering all of my questions through the patient portal. Your kindness made such a difference on the hardest days.

And to the lab technicians, we are deeply thankful for the care and attention you put into looking after our one and only embryo.

To Al at the pharmacy for all his help with our medication and planning, for his patience and explanation about how to administer the medication and for answering all out questions with kindness and humour.

Because of your dedication and expertise, we now have an almost 5-month-old beautiful and healthy baby boy who makes our lives fuller every single day.

We wholeheartedly recommend Atlantic Fertility to anyone navigating fertility treatments. Their professionalism, compassion, and dedication are truly life changing."
