Aphrodite Kit

APHRODITE KIT

The Aphrodite kit is a patented breakthrough kit that includes everything you need for your Gentle IVF fertility treatment without coming to the office for the repeated monitoring visits for blood draws and ultrasounds. It was invented during the COVID-19 pandemic when there were guidelines for “stay at home” policy. It requires only ONE in-person visit to the office on the day of your egg retrieval procedure.
