Homerton Fertility Centre: Licence ban extended after loss of some embryos

The Homerton Fertility Centre in London remains closed as investigations continue into the loss of embryos, leading to delays in treatment for hundreds of patients. The closure was extended by the fertility regulator, HFEA, due to concerns over patient safety following three serious incidents involving frozen embryos. Patients like Abigail and Sarah expressed anger and disappointment over the loss of embryos and lack of communication from the clinic. The HFEA CEO stated that the clinic’s license will remain suspended until investigations are completed, emphasizing the importance of ensuring such incidents are thoroughly addressed to prevent recurrence.
