Mini Stim IVF

Dr. Natalie Crawford explains minimal stimulation IVF also known as mini stim IVF or “natural” IVF. When does it make sense to do minimal stimulation IVF? It’s important to understand your options and what is best for you when it comes to your goals and how you want to get there. She also warns you about the marketing tactics you may see and why many of them are making false claims.
