WELCOME TO THE PROGENESIS ACADEMY
ABOUT PROGENESIS ACADEMY
At Progenesis our unwavering commitment to fostering healthy families has driven us to support thousands of individuals and families in conceiving healthy babies. In the face of the global crisis posed by the coronavirus pandemic, fertility treatment cycles have been significantly affected, putting the dreams of starting a family on hold. Recognizing the urgency of addressing this issue, we have launched Progenesis Academy to facilitate dialogue among fertility professionals and provide support to patients, advocating for a shift in the perception of fertility treatment as elective.
How Did Progenesis Academy Start
With our mission to create healthy families, the establishment of Progenesis Academy becomes even more crucial. We aim to provide informative resources that keep you updated on managing risks, minimizing exposure, and staying informed about the latest COVID-19 developments and their impact on your journey to parenthood. Collaborating with thought leaders in reproductive health and individuals seeking to build their families, Progenesis Academy serves as a vital link between IVF practices and patients, offering COVID-19 awareness, education, support, and guidance for those undergoing fertility treatment.
