Can I go to my GP for a fertility test?
Last reviewed: 2026-05-27 · how we answer
Short answer
Whether you're a candidate for a specific fertility and IVF procedure is a clinical judgement that requires an in-person assessment.
NZ-specific context
- Most fertility and IVF clinics offer an initial consultation that includes eligibility assessment.
- Common factors: age, baseline health, medications, the specific procedure you're considering, and your goals.
- Funding is mixed: some indications qualify for public-system referral via Te Whatu Ora or ACC; cosmetic / elective indications are private-pay. Confirm with the clinic.
Who should you check with
