Our story began with a dream—a dream of a family that didn’t feel quite complete yet. We imagined a baby girl with bright eyes and a tiny smile, someone who would fill our home with laughter and love. But the road to her was not simple. It was a road marked by waiting rooms, early-morning appointments, and moments of doubt that felt heavier than we expected.
And then came the team at IRH and IVF—our bridge of hope.
To our incredible IVF doctors Dr Michael Awadalla and Dr King, nurses, and every caring hand behind the scenes: thank you. You held our hope when we felt tired, you explained every step with compassion, and you reminded us that miracles often take time. Your expertise turned fear into trust, and your kindness turned an overwhelming process into something we could carry with courage.
Then, after months of prayers, needles, scans, and whispered “please let this be the one,” our miracle happened. Our embryo became a heartbeat. That heartbeat became a tiny kick. And one unforgettable day, our dream became a beautiful baby girl in our arms. In that moment, our family became complete.
She is here because you believed in us—and helped us keep believing in ourselves.
And to anyone still on the IVF journey: hold on to hope, even on the days when it feels impossible. We’ve been there. We’ve felt the ache, the waiting, the fear of the unknown. But we’ve also felt the joy on the other side—the joy that arrives quietly at first and then fills every corner of your life. Miracles grow in the most unexpected ways, and yours may be closer than you think.
IVF didn’t just give us a child. It gave us strength, resilience, and a deeper understanding of love. And most importantly, it gave us our daughter—the final piece of our hearts.
Thank you, IRH team, for the miracle we now hold every day.

"Being over 30 with one o***y and endometriosis, we wanted to start our family as soon as possible. After trying for 6 months with no luck, we decided to try IUI. Everyone at IRH was so nice and attentive. We are so blessed — the first try worked and we have a wonderful baby boy. Thank you IRH for help bringing our child into this life" 🩵

"My husband and I started trying to conceive immediately after we were married in May of 2018. After a year of trying and no luck we underwent testing and were diagnosed with “unexplained infertility”. We underwent numerous medicated cycles before finally reaching out to IRH for help. In late 2020 we completed 3 IUI’s with no success. We were heartbroken, and I especially needed a mental break so we “took time off” and tried to enjoy ourselves. In November 2020 we started our IVF ICSI journey. On December 20th we had an unsuccessful fresh frozen embryo transfer. We were devastated but immediately wanted to try again. January 19th 2021 we transferred 1 beautiful embryo that became our Son. He will be 4 years old soon. We longed to give him a sibling so we underwent another frozen embryo transfer in November 2024 and we now have 2 healthy baby boys who are our world! Thank you IRH, Dr.A"

📣 Going, Going, Gone!

Last Chance to Take Advantage of IRH’s 25th Anniversary FET Savings!

This year, The Institute for Reproductive Health (IRH), is proud to celebrate 25 years of helping patients grow their families, and we want to mark this milestone in a big way.

As part of our 25th Anniversary celebration, we are excited to offer a rare, limited-time discount on Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET) cycles.
From October 1 to November 30, 2025, self-pay patients who pre-pay for their FET cycle will receive a $1,000 discount.

Even better, you will have up to two years (until October 1, 2027) to complete your cycle, giving you flexibility and peace of mind.

This special offer is ending soon, so if you have been considering moving forward with your FET, now is the perfect time to take advantage of these savings before they are gone.

We are honored to have supported thousands of families over the past 25 years, and we look forward to celebrating this milestone with you by helping make treatment a little more accessible.

"We will always be forever grateful for everyone at IRH! After 5 long years, many losses, blood, sweat, and tears, we finally welcomed our rainbow baby girl 6 weeks ago. We could spend a lifetime saying all kinds of great things about Dr. M. Awadalla and Dr. Scheiber. They made what felt like the impossible happen for us. We spent quite some time in the OB/GYN's office, going through surgeries and taking medications, to no avail. She pointed us in the direction of IRH. We were hesitant taking such steps because we just never thought our dreams of creating a family of our own would ever come true. Dr. M. Awadalla was very reassuring during our consultation and the entire process of our IVF journey. We couldn't imagine such a smooth journey with such a caring medical team elsewhere. Especially when it comes to going through losses. We will definitely be back when we are ready to continue growing our family!!"
