Balancing work commitments with infertility treatment is not always easy. Repeated examinations, medical appointments, uncertainty, waiting for results and emotional strain affect not only personal life but often the working day as well. Yet these experiences are still rarely discussed in the workplace. This is precisely the issue that this year’s European Fertility Week, taking place from 2 to 8 November 2026, aims to bring to the forefront.

Movember reminds us every year that men’s health deserves attention and that it should not become a topic only when problems arise. Alongside the prevention of prostate and testicular cancer and the promotion of mental well-being, we should not overlook male fertility and sperm quality. Sperm parameters can provide valuable insight into a man’s reproductive health, and they are influenced by a wide range of factors, from diet and physical activity to stress, smoking, and environmental exposures.

So, how is male fertility changing, what factors can affect sperm quality, and what can men do to support their reproductive health?

The IVF process can be a challenging time for many couples, filled with emotions, stress and anticipation. You may have countless questions running through your mind, think about upcoming medical appointments or anxiously wait for your test results. Travelling abroad for treatment can make the whole experience feel even more overwhelming. But coming to Prague for IVF treatment doesn’t mean that your entire stay has to revolve around medical appointments. At Prague Fertility Centre, we understand that treatment can be an emotional and demanding experience. Your schedule will naturally be shaped by consultations, examinations and your individual treatment plan, but if you have some free time between appointments, you can also use it to slow down, relax and enjoy some time together.

October is the month when the pink ribbon becomes a symbol of an issue we should be talking about all year round. We are talking about the fight against breast cancer and cancer more broadly. During Pink October, we are reminded of the importance of prevention, the value of early detection and the progress that has been made in cancer treatment in recent years. Much less attention, however, is given to what comes after treatment and to the question of what life will actually look like after overcoming the disease. While some women may be thinking about returning to work or reconnecting with relationships that became quieter during treatment, many others are faced with a completely different and deeply important question: How will cancer treatment affect their fertility?

IVF stimulation is roughly a 10‑day period during which you self‑administer injections and attend regular ultrasound check‑ups. The goal is to increase the number of maturing eggs suitable for fertilisation. For many women, it’s a new experience filled with questions, expectations, and concerns. In this article, we clearly explain how IVF stimulation works, what is normal, and what changes you may notice during this period.
