Ferticlin

What Ferticlin does

Ferticlin (legal name: Ferticlin Clínica de Fertilidade Humana Ltda) is a privately held, single-site fertility clinic headquartered at Av. Indianópolis, 1960, Planalto Paulista, São Paulo, Brazil. Founded in 1988 by Dr. Raul Eid Nakano, a gynecologist with international training from Kanazawa University and Keio University in Japan, the clinic operates an on-site Human Reproduction Laboratory and offers a comprehensive portfolio of assisted reproduction treatments including In Vitro Fertilization (FIV), ICSI (Intra Cytoplasmatic Sperm Injection), Artificial Insemination (AI), Egg Freezing via Vitrification, Ovulation Induction, Hidrotubação (tubal treatment), GIFT, Ovarian Rejuvenation via PRGF, Egg Donation, and male-factor sperm retrieval procedures (PESA, MESA, TESA/TESE), as well as assisted reproduction pathways for same-sex couples.

The clinic's underlying technology centers on laboratory techniques rather than software: ultra-rapid vitrification in liquid nitrogen at -196°C for oocyte/embryo cryopreservation, micro-manipulation-based ICSI for severe male factor cases, and autologous platelet-rich growth factor (PRGF) therapy for ovarian rejuvenation. The lab holds ISO 9001 certification for air purification and maintenance, and the clinic is accredited by RedLara (Red Latino Americano de Reprodução Humana). Other regulatory and professional affiliations include ASRM, ESHRE, SBRA, SIGO, and SBRH, supporting both credibility and clinical protocol alignment with international standards.

Ferticlin runs a direct-to-consumer healthcare clinic model. Revenue is generated per treatment cycle through professional services fees covering consultations, IVF/ICSI, AI, egg freezing, ovarian rejuvenation, and ancillary procedures. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with appointment booking handled via phone, WhatsApp, and an online contact form. Patient acquisition is supported by an educational layer comprising a website blog, a fertility period calculator, and Dr. Nakano's video content. Customer segments span heterosexual couples with infertility, same-sex couples, women seeking elective or medical fertility preservation, women with diminished ovarian reserve, women needing donor eggs, and male-factor infertility patients. The clinical team is small and disclosed publicly, including two anesthesiologists, three embryologists, a chief nurse, and additional nursing technicians, indicating a boutique-scale operation.
