Fertility centres' £5m boost
NHS chiefs are to spend more than £5 million to help boost Scotland's flagging birth rate.
NHS Scotland has issued a tender for products to be used by childless couples at fertility centres in Edinburgh, the Lothians, Aberdeen and Dundee.
The four drugs to be purchased will help regulate a woman's reproductive cycle by stimulating the production of eggs, support a healthy pregnancy and suppress the woman's normal egg production to allow the fertility treatment to work.
