Sims IVF will host an information day for women at Lawlors of Naas, Kildare, on 3 October at 11am, bringing clinic specialists to discuss fertility, treatment choices and preservation options. The session aims to offer clear, practical guidance and a chance to ask questions in a supportive setting.
What attendees can expect
The event will cover common concerns that affect chances of conceiving, from how fertility changes with age to conditions that can complicate conception. Organisers say the programme is tailored for women at different stages — those trying for a first child, people facing secondary infertility, and anyone wanting to learn about reproductive health.

Speakers will explain how factors such as PCOS, endometriosis and recurrent miscarriage are assessed and managed. The emphasis is on practical information and understanding realistic options, rather than on sales or pressure to choose a particular treatment.
Speakers and expertise
Journalist Sarah-Jayne Tobin of dmg Media will moderate the discussion and audience questions.
Professor Enda McVeigh, Medical Director at Sims IVF, is scheduled to speak. He is described by organisers as a specialist in reproductive medicine with more than 30 years of experience across clinical practice, research and advanced surgery. His work covers IVF, fertility preservation, endometriosis, PCOS and advanced laparoscopic and hysteroscopic procedures.
Joining him is Kellie Murphy, Candidate Advanced Midwife Practitioner at Sims IVF Swords. A midwife since 2015, she became part of the Rotunda IVF team — now operating as Sims IVF Swords — in 2020 and brings experience supporting patients through treatment and early pregnancy.
Treatments and options explained
The programme includes information about treatment pathways offered by the clinic. One session will outline IVF with donor eggs — an option some women use for age-related infertility, reduced egg quality, previous unsuccessful cycles, or when genetic or medical factors have affected fertility.
Sims IVF operates an in-house donor egg programme in Ireland, meaning patients can access donor-treatment options domestically rather than travelling abroad. The event will also discuss egg freezing and other fertility preservation approaches, which may appeal to women who wish to delay childbearing for personal or medical reasons.
Questions, atmosphere and practical details
Organisers say the format will allow time for attendees to listen and to ask questions directly to clinicians. The aim is to help people leave better informed about possible next steps and the implications of different choices.
Please note the session will be child-free to maintain a comfortable environment for all participants. Registration is required to attend; those interested are asked to register with Sims IVF to reserve a place.
The event takes place on 3 October at Lawlors of Naas, Kildare, starting at 11am. It is intended as an educational opportunity for women seeking clarity about their reproductive options.
