Vitalab Sandton and Vitalab KZN
With over 40 years of experience, Vitalab stands as a leading name among fertility clinics in South Africa, providing world-class care at two conveniently located branches: Gauteng (Sandton) and KwaZulu-Natal (Umhlanga).

SpermSearch.AI is being introduced at Vitalab Sandton Fertility Clinic
Vitalab Sandton Smarter Technologies
For some men with severe male factor infertility, finding sperm during a TESE (Testicular Sperm Extraction) or micro-TESE procedure can be one of the greatest challenges in fertility treatment. In these cases, embryologists may spend hours carefully searching through tissue samples in the hope of finding sperm that can be used for IVF treatment. SpermSearch.AI acts as an additional set of eyes, assisting embryologists in identifying potential sperm more efficiently during difficult cases. While artificial intelligence does not replace the expertise, experience or clinical judgement of our embryology team, it represents another exciting advancement in reproductive medicine that may help improve laboratory efficiency for selected patients with severe male factor infertility.

You have the flexibility to choose the branch that best suits your travel needs. However, it’s important to note that once you start your fertility journey at a specific branch, your program schedules will continue through that branch. As fees vary between the provinces and each branch operates independently under a different medical practice number, all outside scans will be at your own expense.
What to Expect When You Become a Vitalab Patient
Your journey to parenthood begins with understanding. We guide you through every step with clarity, compassion, and clinical excellence.
Your Six-Step Patient Journey
A comprehensive, evidence-based approach to understanding your fertility and creating your personalized treatment plan.
1
Detailed Medical History
Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation where we take time to understand your unique story.
In-depth discussion of your medical and reproductive history
Review of previous fertility treatments and outcomes
Assessment of lifestyle factors that may impact fertility
Understanding your goals and expectations for treatment
2
Clinical Examination
A thorough physical assessment to evaluate your reproductive health and identify any potential concerns.
- Comprehensive reproductive health assessment, including a vaginal examination
- Evaluation of overall physical health
- Possible male physical examination if indicated
- Baseline measurements and observations
3
Ultrasound Assessment (TVUS)
Transvaginal ultrasound provides detailed imaging of your reproductive organs to assess uterine and ovarian health.
- High-resolution imaging of the uterus and uterine lining
- Assessment of ovarian structure and follicle count
- Detection of pathology including endometriosis, fibroids, adenomyosis and hydrosalpinx
Understanding Transvaginal Ultrasound (TVUS)
Transvaginal ultrasound is a safe imaging technique that provides detailed visualization of your reproductive organs. This assessment is crucial for evaluating uterine health, measuring ovarian reserve, and identifying any structural concerns that may impact fertility.
4
Blood Tests
Comprehensive hormonal and health screening to understand your fertility potential and overall wellness.
- Ovarian reserve testing
- Blood group
- Vitamin levels
- Thyroid health
- STDs
- Immunity to Rubella (German measles)
5
Uterine/Tubal Assessment
Evaluation of fallopian tube patency and uterine cavity structure using specialized imaging techniques.
- A) Hysterosalpingogram HSG is a dye test. It starts with inserting a speculum as we do for a pap smear. Then we numb the cervix with some local anaesthetic and gently insert a cannula into the cervix. We then inject the dye whilst doing an X-ray video to see how the dye fills the uterus and whether it spills out the tubes or not.
- B) Office Hysteroscopy is a camera test. We gently insert a small scope into the uterus via the cervix and fill the uterus up with sterile water. We can then see the endometrium and the tubal openings and rule out any inflammation, scarring, or birth defects.
6
Personalised Treatment Planning
Based on all assessments, we create a tailored treatment plan designed specifically for your needs.
- Comprehensive review of all test results
- Discussion of treatment options: IUI, IVF, or other approaches
