Fertility :- Norvik Hospital | Every Life Counts

Fertility

While being able to conceive is greatly valued in Uganda, there are many couples who are unable to do so due to myriad reasons. Despite the fact that infertility can be attributed to both male and female factors, female infertility is more stigmatized than male infertility.

At Norvik, we are aware what women go through due to the attached stigma and thus wish to help by creating a non-judgmental environment and providing access to latest advancements in Assisted Reproductive technology. We have recently established a fertility unit that is helping couples realize their dream of having children.

With the expertise of a renowned fertility specialist who has been a pioneer in this field in Uganda for more than three decades along with superior technological infrastructure, various procedures related to fertility issues are offered.

The presence of a maternity ward at the hospital makes it possible for the couple or women seeking fertility treatment to continue receiving services at the hospital.

Services Offered:

Our motto is to ensure a holistic treatment plan geared towards both male and female fertility in equal measure for a better chance of conception. Our treatment portfolio includes the following;
