Home / FAQ / Can I continue IVF treatment if I have swine flu?
By taking the correct precautions against the H1N1 virus, you can reduce the chance of catching the illness.Unless recommended otherwise, women can continue with any method of infertility treatment during the H1N1 outbreak.
It is worth remembering that successful IVF treatment depends not only on the treatment itself but also the overall health and immune system of the patient. Swine flu, as seasonal influenza, lowers the immune system. Women who are due to start a new treatment cycle may choose to delay IVF until they recover.
