Introducing Dr Raewyn Teirney, CEO & Founder of conceiveplease

With more than 18 years’ experience in gynaecology and fertility, Dr Raewyn Teirney is passionate about helping couples and single mums fulfill their dreams of starting or expanding their family. 

After beginning her studies at Auckland University Dr Raewyn graduated as a Master of Medicine in Reproductive Health and Human Genetics at The University of Sydney. On completing her obstetrics and gynaecology training in Sydney, Dr Raewyn moved on to work as a clinical lecturer at Cambridge University and at Bourn Hall IVF Centre in England - one of the world’s leading centres of IVF research and clinical excellence.

In the years that followed, Dr Raewyn encountered many patients having trouble conceiving naturally. She discovered that, in many of those cases, it was due to a lack of information - whether that be working out how to determine the optimum times to conceive or understanding the importance of overall physical health and nutrition to boost fertility. In 2012, Dr Raewyn founded conceiveplease,  the first comprehensive fertility kit in Australia to help empower and support couples wishing to start or extend a family through natural conception. 

With support from Australian fertility experts and compelling medical evidence, conceiveplease now comprises a range of essential fertility products, information and resources to support couples on their fertility journey. From preconception vitamins for men & women, ovulation & pregnancy tests, to guided meditation and fertility trackers, the conceiveplease™ fertility planning kit has everything prospective parents need to help optimise their chance of falling pregnant naturally and to nurture a healthy ongoing pregnancy. 

Dr Raewyn also continues to work as a fertility specialist at The Royal Hospital for women in Sydney and has a private fertility practice with IVF Australia. Armed with years of experience and the knowledge of the emotional and physical toll of infertility, Dr Raewyn has built a reputation for offering personalised and professional support to couples looking to conceive naturally, and to same-sex couples and single women who are eager to start their own families with the help of IVF Australia’s donor program. 

Passionate about making the family-planning journey a positive and compassionate experience, Dr Raewyn is renowned for her caring and patient approach. As a prospective parent you can be sure that Dr Raewyn is open to your wishes and will explain the process ahead thoroughly and clearly to ensure you fully understand all the options available to you.
