Yet pre-conception care is too often skipped, rushed, or reduced to a simple folate prescription. We take a comprehensive, evidence-informed approach to pregnancy preparation — a thorough risk assessment and health optimisation covering your cycle, hormonal health, general wellbeing, and any factors that could affect your fertility or your pregnancy. We organise all relevant blood tests and scans, help you make sense of the results, and develop a personalised plan that gives you the best possible start. Whether you are just beginning to think about starting a family, have been trying for a while without success, or want to understand your fertility before you're ready, this is a space for clear, compassionate conversation. [ Book ](#book-6) #### **Good to know:** We write to your GP on referral or on request. Written care plans are available after your appointment.

New appointments are booked for 40–60 minutes, and review appointments for 30 minutes. Telehealth is available for suitable consultations. We begin with a comprehensive history and risk assessment — your general health, your cycle, any previous pregnancies or losses, and what you already know or have already tried. We will help you make sense of any tests you may have already had, and guide you through what further investigations might be worthwhile. Where blood tests are needed, these can often be arranged from our clinic. #### **A note on AI note-taking:** We use AI-assisted note-taking during consultations so that we can remain fully present and attentive to your health story. If you would prefer we do not use this, please let us know at any time. Written care plans are available on request and can be emailed to you. We are happy to write to your GP on referral or on request.

That is exactly what we are here for — to help you cut through the noise and feel clear about your next steps. ## Preparing for your appointment Help us make the most of your time. A little preparation goes a long way. Here's how to get the most from your consultation: 1. Download the [**Vagenius Period Diary**](https://outsidetheboxcare.com.au/files/images/Downloads/AAA-Vagenius-Menstrual-Diary-2025.pdf) and track your cycle in the weeks before — this gives us invaluable detail about your pattern, ovulation signs, and any symptoms 2. Bring any previous blood test results, ultrasound reports, or fertility investigations 3. Bring a list of current medications and supplements, including names and dosages 4. If your partner has had any fertility investigations, bring those results too 5. Note down how long you have been trying to conceive (if applicable) and any patterns or concerns you have noticed 6. Please give at least **24 hours' notice** if you need to change or cancel — late cancellations will incur a fee ![Girls laughing treated](https://outsidetheboxcare.com.au/files/images/Treated-Images/_2880x2880_crop_center-center_70_none_ffffff/10591/girls-laughing_treated.webp) ### Book an appointment Fill in the form below and our care team will be in touch shortly to confirm your appointment for a Pregnancy Planning and Fertility Consultation. ![Whole-hearted Care Icon – Medicine is a science.
