Emmebody

Your information. Your understanding. Your voice.

Your IVF treatment should make sense to you.

One update comes by phone. Another appears in the portal. Medication instructions sit in an email. You write down the number, move to the next step, then wonder whether there was something you should have asked.

Emmebody is being created to bring all of those pieces of information together in a record that belongs to you, explain them in plain language and guide you with questions shaped by a deep understanding of fertility treatment.

Your information, your understanding and your voice in conversations about your care.

Why Emmebody

You should not have to piece your treatment together from memory.

  • The result in the portal.
  • The instructions in an email.
  • The unfamiliar term you meant to look up.
  • The question you did not know you needed to ask.

Emmebody is being created for this part of fertility treatment. It will help you see what has happened, understand the information you received and know what you might want to ask next. The aim is to help you feel less overwhelmed and more in control of your own treatment information.

A fertility treatment companion

Keep it together. Understand it. Know what to ask.

Emmebody will be there in the moments between clinic conversations. When you are reviewing information, looking for an explanation or trying to prepare for the next step.

01

Keep your information together

Bring results, documents, notes, appointments, clinic answers and your own reflections into one connected record that belongs to you.

Keep it across cycles, clinics and time.

02

Understand the language and evidence

Read plain-language explanations of IVF terminology and balanced summaries of the research behind tests, procedures and treatment techniques.

See sources and understand where evidence is uncertain.

03

Prepare questions that fit your situation

Receive suggested questions based on the stage of treatment and the information you add, informed by a deep understanding of fertility treatment.

Take the questions back to your clinic for discussion.

Your treatment is more than the instructions for the next appointment.

A record of the treatment and the experience.

Clinic apps play an important role in delivering care. Emmebody is being designed around the person receiving it.

Keep the clinical details alongside the thoughts, questions and moments you want to remember. Hold onto the context that can be lost when a cycle ends, treatment finishes or you move to another clinic.

Your treatment information

Keep the details together across cycles, clinics and time, whether you are reflecting on what happened or preparing for a second opinion.

Your thoughts, questions and reflections

Record the details you want to remember, including how things felt, what mattered to you and what you want to ask next.

Less to hold and repeat alone

Choose what to share with a partner or trusted support person, so one person does not carry the burden of remembering and repeating everything.

Understanding without the search spiral

Clear explanations when an unfamiliar term or treatment option appears.

Emmebody will help turn unfamiliar fertility treatment language into information you understand and use in your next clinic conversation.

Terminology explained in plain language

Understand terms such as MII, blastocyst, ICSI, PGT and embryo grading without working through pages of clinical language.

Example‘MII’ describes an egg that has reached the stage of maturity usually needed for ICSI. If your clinic reports mature eggs, this is often the figure they mean.

Research explained clearly

Explore clear, balanced explanations of what research shows, where findings differ and which questions are worth discussing with your clinic.

Designed for understandingUnderstand the research and the questions it raises, while keeping treatment decisions with you and your clinic.

An early working example

One IVF cycle, brought together in one clear record.

The free IVF Cycle Summary is the first small example of how Emmebody will bring information together and suggest useful questions.

Enter the information you received during a cycle. See egg collection, fertilisation, embryo development, embryo outcomes and PGT results in one view.

Free to use. No account required. The summary organises information and suggests questions. It does not interpret results, recommend treatment or predict outcomes.

The experience behind Emmebody

Nearly 20 years in fertility care showed me how much patients are asked to navigate between appointments.

Even with a supportive clinic, important parts of treatment happen between conversations. You are trying to make sense of a result, remember what was said, understand a new term or work out what to ask next.

Emmebody began with a desire to support patients in those moments. To help you understand your information sooner, feel more prepared for conversations about your treatment and have a stronger voice in decisions about your care.

It is being created to help you feel more informed, more comfortable and more in control of what comes next.

We want Emmebody to feel like the companion you wish you had during treatment. Tell us where information became hard to follow, which explanations you needed and what would have helped you feel more informed, prepared and in control.
