Infertility is defined as the inability to conceive after one year of unprotected intercourse. It affects 15% of couples.

The number of couples seeking medical advice is increasingly rising over the past few years. Successful treatment depends on the exact diagnosis of the cause of infertility. Therefore, detailed history, physical examination and proper clinical and laboratory testingis required.

Fertility is affected by age, frequency of intercourse, total duration of unprotected intercourse, previous contraception methods (especially IUD- intrauterine device), environmental factors, tobacco, alcohol consumption and even intense stress.

Infertility is related to both male and female factors. International surveys have shown that 40% of cases are due to female factors, 40% to male factors and 20% of cases to combined factors. However, in 10% of cases, although all tests results are normal, infertility remains unexplained.

The KAPETANAKIS Center for Reproduction and Genetics was founded in 1982 by world-renowned Dr. Emanuel Kapetanakis, a highly experienced gynecologist who specialized in gynecologic endocrinology, reproductive and endoscopic surgery and pioneered assisted reproduction methods in Greece.

Under the leadership of his son, Dr. Vasilis Kapetanakis, the KAPETANAKIS Center continues to remain at the forefront of assisted reproduction. The last fifteen years have seen rapid technological advances that offer couples the ideal choice among many to achieve the desired pregnancy. However, the use of newer technological methods requires constant updating, training and application to deliver results.

To achieve excellent results, our Center consists of medical staff, highly trained in the best gynecology centers in the world and recognized internationally (American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology). A team of scientists who identify the ideal treatment for each infertility problem and solve it. Exactly for this reason, the KAPETANAKIS Center is a scientific infertility center and not just another IVF center.

Each couple has a treatment option that works uniquely for them, which when applied effectively, ensures successful fertilization and a definitive solution to their infertility issue.

Applying targeted infertility therapies is the key to having a healthy child!
