Where does Open Fertility perform egg retrievals?

Egg retrievals for Open Fertility patients take place at a partner lab operated by Spring Fertility, where a board-certified REI performs the procedure. Your monitoring and day-to-day care happen with your Open Fertility Provider, and the retrieval itself is handled at the partner lab. Your care team gives you the specific location, directions, and arrival time ahead of your retrieval date.

Who is in the room during my egg retrieval?

The REI performs the retrieval, an anesthesiologist manages your anesthesia and monitors you throughout, and an embryologist works alongside the team to identify and secure the eggs as they are collected. Nursing staff support the procedure and your recovery afterward.

Can I reschedule my egg retrieval if my body needs more time?

Retrieval timing is set by how your follicles respond to stimulation, not by a fixed calendar date, so the exact day can shift during your cycle. Your Provider monitors your follicle growth and hormone levels through your monitoring appointments and schedules the retrieval when your follicles are ready. If your body needs another day or two of stimulation, your care team adjusts the plan accordingly.

How do I reach someone at Open Fertility if I have questions before or after retrieval?

Your Patient Navigator is reachable by phone and through the Salve App for scheduling questions and support before and after your procedure. An after-hours phone line is available 24/7 for medical concerns that arise outside of regular hours, so you are not left waiting until the next business day if a concern comes up the evening of your retrieval.
