Whether this is your first early loss or you have experienced recurrent losses, Pollin brings clinical investigation, evidence-based care, and emotional support together in one personalized pathway.
Royal College-certified REI fertility specialists review your history and guide your investigation.
Testing is selected to evaluate genetic, anatomic, immunologic, clotting, hormonal, and other relevant factors.
Recommendations are tied to your findings and may include medication, supplements, surgery, IVF with genetic testing, or other care.
Mental health, naturopathic, and genetic counselling support can be incorporated where appropriate.
Sometimes a cause cannot be identified. When investigation is appropriate, your doctor may evaluate several categories rather than looking for one single explanation.
Abnormal number of chromosomes within the embryo or rearrangement of genetic material within a chromosome originating from either the egg, sperm or both.
Fibroids, polyps or other uterine anomalies.
Specific autoimmune conditions and/or alloimmune imbalances.
Smoking, drug use, and obesity related conditions.
You may seek support after a first loss or after recurrent losses. A fertility specialist can review your history and discuss whether investigation, treatment, monitoring, or emotional support may be appropriate.
Possible factors include chromosomal or genetic changes, uterine anatomy, antiphospholipid syndrome, selected clotting conditions, hormonal or medical issues, and lifestyle factors. In some cases, no cause is found.
Treatment depends on investigation results and may include medication, surgery, IVF with preimplantation genetic testing, lifestyle or health optimization, and early pregnancy monitoring. A specialist will explain benefits, limitations, and alternatives.

Yes, you do need a referral to see a fertility specialist in Ontario, however Pollin can facilitate one for you through an OHIP-covered, virtual appointment with our partner GP if you do not have your own GP.
You can book an initial consultation directly through our website without a referral and a member of our care team will contact you before your appointment date to get you set up with one.
Your fertility doctor consultation, follow-ups and some testing is covered by OHIP. Advanced testing, depending on your personal health profile may be an additional cost, and will be discussed with you prior to proceeding with any testing.
