On International Nurses Day, we are proud to celebrate our wonderful ‘Agora Angels’

We would like to thank every single member of our wonderful nursing team who have worked so hard to care and support our patients throughout this long Covid Pandemic.

Today we also celebrate the joy of 264 confirmed pregnancies, 12 months to the day when the HFEA allowed us to restart after the first lockdown.

Today is a bittersweet day to celebrate. Today we remember all of the members of the trans community that we have lost this year. It's only November, yet 2020 is the deadliest year on record for the transgender community with 350 people reported.

Transphobia needs to be replaced with trans respect now - and although some areas seem to be making progress, demonstrated with Joe Bides speech today in which he released a statement promising to honor transgender lives and rights both in America and around the world. More needs to be done, but we want to demonstrate and continue to demonstrate our support and do everything we can to empower everyone to change their mindset.

A link in below names every possible member that lost their life this year in order to keep their memories alive 💙💗🤍

Today we’re going to celebrate everyone with a he/him pronoun 💜

As a trans man, fertility preservation is a very popular way of ensuring that transitioning and the change of hormones doesn’t stop them from having biological children later in life. Egg freezing allows you to retain the option of having children, and still be who you’re meant to be.

In a same-sex relationship, there are many options and avenues that you can explore so that you can become parents. Whether surrogacy adoption or fostering, there is always a way. To find out more please contact our admin department on 01273229410 💚

Here in the UK since 2005, same-sex couples have the right to adopt together.

Everyone should be respected in their right to parent regardless of their gender or sexual identity 💜

Have you heard of the Salve app?

Salve is possibly the easiest way to get in touch with any of our three departments at the clinic. It’s an app that allows you to send “text” messages to either admins, the lab or our nurses with any questions of concerns you may have.

Salve allows us to be in constant contact with our patients, as we understand that with IVF being such an anxiety inducing journey, you’ll have lots of questions and want them answered quickly.

For more information or if you’re already a patient and want to know how to link up with us, send us a DM or give us a call! 💜

What is ICSI?

ICSI stands for intracytoplasmic s***m injection and is an effective treatment when male infertility is a key factor.

ICSI may be recommended when:
- You have a very low s***m count
- You have a low morphology or motility
- You have had a surgical s***m retrieval

Instead of mixing the s***m and egg collection together after egg collection, one of our skilled embryologists injects a single s***m into the egg, maximising the chance of fertilisation.

At the Agora, when you come to discuss egg or s***m freezing, we always consider the various ways you might use these to create a family. This will depend on your gender orientation, whether or not you wish to have gender reassignment surgery, and your own preferences.

“As a transperson, I felt like I had already missed out on enough rites of passage and starting a family was not one I was willing to add to that list. For a long time I thought that wasn’t going to be an option for me but The Agora changed that.”

During your transition the hormones that you’re prescribed reduce the production of eggs and s***m, greatly decreasing your fertility. This is why patients who wish to transition may think about preserving their fertility.

If you are trans or non-binary and have any further questions, please contact our amazing trans coordinator Megan. Her email is MD@agoraclinic.co.I’m or give her a call on 01273 229410

Pope francis has said that he thinks same-sex couples should be allowed to have “civil unions.” He said, "Homosexual people have a right to be in a family," "They are children of God and have a right to a family. Nobody should be thrown out or made miserable over it.” "What we have to create is a civil union law. That way they are legally covered." These statements are huge and follow in a long line of statements made by Pope Francis to be more inclusive of LGBT people and LGBT Catholics more generally.💜

This has all been shown in a documentary directed by Evgeny Afineevsky that has premiered as part of the Rome Film Festival. The Pope saying that civil unions are a necessity for LGBT families is a direct conflict with that of the 2003 doctrine that states, “The Church teaches that respect for homosexual persons cannot lead in any way to the approval of homosexual behavior or to legal recognition of homosexual unions,” and for Catholic families who might be LGBT, it’s a huge win in recognition of their humanity.❤️

This is amazing to see as it’s showing that previous out of date views are changing in modern society. We all hope that this message will continue to spread throughout all communities and that soon every country will see same-sex marriage in the same was heterosexual marriage is viewed, especially in; Poland, Belarus and Ukraine to name a few where it is still illegal, and also in countries like Italy, Greece and Switzerland where only civil partnerships with similar rights are allowed.💚
