Things your aunty told you. Checked.
Stress is why you're not getting pregnant.
ActuallyStress does not stop most pregnancies. Blaming it only delays the tests that find the real cause.
Infertility is a woman's problem.
ActuallyA male factor is involved in about half of couples who struggle to conceive. That's why we check both of you, starting with one simple semen test.
IVF babies are "less natural".
ActuallyLarge studies show children born after IVF grow and learn like other children. IVF helps egg and sperm meet; the pregnancy after that is a pregnancy like any other.
You must lie flat after IUI or transfer.
ActuallyBed rest does not improve the chance of pregnancy after IUI or embryo transfer. You can get up, walk and go home straight after.
The questions everyone asks. Honestly answered.

How much does IVF cost at Jananam?
The cost of IVF at Jananam depends on the tests you need, your medicine dose and lab techniques like ICSI or freezing. You get a package price in writing before you start. EMI options exist and are explained before you commit.
What is your IVF success rate?
We do not advertise a headline success rate, because a clinic-wide figure mostly reflects which patients a clinic accepts (their ages and diagnoses), not the quality of care. What matters is your own chance: at your consultation Dr Vani goes through your age, diagnosis, ovarian reserve and semen analysis, and tells you the realistic range, including when treatment is unlikely to help.
Is Jananam the best IVF centre in Chennai?
We won't claim best. We can show you how we work, in the Jananam Standard, and 4.9 from 1,210 Google reviews.
Do you treat male infertility?
Yes, from semen analysis to ICSI and surgical sperm retrieval (TESA and PESA). Both partners are checked first.
Do I need IVF?
Often not. Many couples conceive with simpler treatment like ovulation support or IUI. We start by finding out why.
Can you help if we live abroad?
Yes. You start with a video consultation with Dr Vani, do the tests at home, and get a written plan before you travel.
Is Jananam a maternity hospital?
No, Jananam is a fertility-only hospital in Chennai, with no maternity ward and no deliveries. We help you get pregnant and look after the early weeks. After a positive test, we [CONFIRM: monitor the pregnancy until week X, then refer you to an obstetrician of your choice for antenatal care and delivery].
Where is Jananam Fertility Centre?
Jananam Fertility Centre has two centres in Chennai: the main hospital and IVF lab in Neelankarai, off East Coast Road (ECR), and a clinic in Thiruporur on OMR. The Neelankarai address is 22/10, 1st Street, Kazura Garden, Neelankarai, Chennai 600115.
What are Jananam's timings?
Jananam is open Mon to Sat, 9am to 5pm. Sunday closed. WhatsApp messages sent outside these hours are answered the next working morning.
