ROCKVILLE, Md., Dec. 1, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- As 2020 nears its end, Shady Grove Fertility (SGF) will wrap up the year with free virtual events throughout December for those seeking to learn more about infertility and its most effective treatment options. SGF physicians and team members have assembled a calendar of webinars and Instagram Live events ranging in topics from in vitro fertilization (IVF), egg freezing, and menstrual cycles, to coping with infertility during the holiday season. All online engagements offer participants the opportunity to ask questions directly to physician experts on the spot.

"While December is often a joyous season of celebrating with loved ones, SGF recognizes it can be an emotionally tolling time for those struggling with infertility," explains Ellen Eule, LCSW-C, of SGF's Psychological Support Team who will be hosting an Instagram Live on the topic December 15 at noon. "We understand infertility is a deeply personal challenge, and we're here to support patients every step of the way."

To help those on their path to parenthood take the first step, Anthony Imudia, M.D., of SGF Tampa Bay's Westshore and Wesley Chapel locations will host a Getting Started webinar on December 30 at 3 pm. Dr. Imudia, a committed medical researcher and board certified reproductive endocrinologist, will highlight how advancements in treatments can make conception possible for almost everyone. His informative presentation will cover how to best prepare for initial physician consultations, with tips including:

  • what to expect during your fertility evaluation,
  • how SGF follows a stepped approach to treatment,
  • and understanding SGF's unique financial programs that can support your unique situation.

"The resilience and determination of our patients challenged with infertility never ceases to amaze me," acknowledges Dr. Imudia. "You'll know when you're ready to ask for help from a specialist, and when you are, SGF will be dedicated to helping you from day one."

Over the course of nearly 30 years, SGF has helped bring more than 85,000 babies and counting into the world. While not all of these babies were the result of in vitro fertilization (IVF), IVF is a very popular and effective fertility treatment. On December 1 at 3 pm, Michael Edelstein, M.D., of SGF Richmond's Stony Point and Henrico locations will host an IVF webinar where he will review:

  • what to expect during the IVF process,
  • IVF success rates,
  • and exclusive SGF financial programs.

"The more you understand the IVF process, the less intimidating the treatment option becomes," shares Dr. Edelstein. "While IVF is considered high-tech and not always the first solution for infertility care, it can dramatically enhance success rates for patients diagnosed with endometriosis, severe male factor infertility, tubal disease, and more."
