India is globally recognised as the "Pharmacy of the World" and has made significant progress in strengthening its healthcare workforce. Yet one of our greatest challenges remains ensuring that quality healthcare reaches every corner of the country. While our overall doctor-population ratio has improved, the distribution is far from even, with a large proportion of doctors concentrated in urban centres and many rural communities continuing to face shortages.

This is why incidents like examination malpractice concern me beyond the immediate headlines.

Medical entrance examinations are not simply tests. They are the starting point of a journey for thousands of future doctors who will one day care for our communities. When that process is disrupted by unfair practices, the consequences extend beyond delayed admissions. It creates uncertainty for students, emotional and financial strain for families, and risks weakening trust in one of the country's most important institutions: medical education.

At a time when India needs more skilled, compassionate healthcare professionals, we cannot afford systems that leave deserving students questioning whether merit alone is enough.

I welcome the steps being taken to strengthen the integrity of our examination system, including stricter legislation against unfair practices and faster judicial mechanisms to address such cases. These are important measures, but their success will depend on consistent implementation and accountability.

Every deserving student who enters medical school through a fair and transparent process is an investment in India's healthcare future. Protecting that trust is not only about safeguarding examinations. It is about safeguarding the future of patient care.

One philosophy that has always guided me as a healthcare professional is that learning never stops. Every opportunity to learn is an opportunity to provide better care for my patients.

Attending ESHRE 2026 in London was one such opportunity. It was inspiring to be surrounded by reproductive medicine specialists, embryologists, researchers, and fertility experts from around the world, all united by a shared purpose of advancing fertility care.

From discussions on artificial intelligence in IVF and precision reproductive medicine to advancements in embryo selection, genetics, fertility preservation, reproductive surgery, and laboratory innovations, every session reinforced the importance of combining scientific progress with compassionate, patient-centred care.

One of the highlights of the conference was meeting Dr. Nicholas Polyzos, Head of the Reproductive Medicine Department at Dexeus Mujer, during the BSV session. It was equally wonderful to reconnect with friends and colleagues, exchange ideas, and learn from one another. These conversations often become just as valuable as the scientific sessions themselves.

Beyond the conference, London was as memorable as ever. From the breathtaking views of the London Eye to a visit to the iconic Lord's Cricket Ground, the city offered moments to pause, reflect, and appreciate the experience beyond the lecture halls.

I come back not just with new knowledge, but with fresh perspectives and renewed enthusiasm to continue offering the best possible care to every individual and couple who places their trust in us. Every conference reminds me that medicine is always evolving, and so must we, for the benefit of our patients.

While infertility is a medical condition, the pain it brings is often psychological and emotional.

Many people carry the weight of insensitive comments, societal expectations, and the constant question of, "Is it me, or is there something beyond my control?" In these moments, more than treatment, they need a safe space to open up, without the fear of being judged.

That is how began - a series of educational initiatives on social media to bring conversations on fertility to the forefront, and remove the stigma attached to infertility.

Today, I am happy to take that conversation one step further.

My website, www.drvandanahegde.com, has been created as an extension of everything I believe fertility care should be - a place where you can find reliable information, understand your options, and make informed decisions.

I hope this space gives you the reassurance to take that first step, at your own pace, in your own time.

The conversation shouldn't begin only in the clinic. It should begin the moment you feel ready to say, "Let's Talk Fertility."

Attending the ESHRE 2026 Annual Meeting in London was an inspiring experience, bringing together reproductive medicine specialists, embryologists, researchers, and fertility professionals from across the world.

This year’s conference highlighted the rapid evolution of assisted reproductive technology, with discussions focused on artificial intelligence in IVF, precision reproductive medicine, advances in embryo selection, genetics, fertility preservation, male infertility, recurrent implantation failure, endometriosis, reproductive surgery, and emerging laboratory innovations. The meeting also emphasized evidence-based practice, patient-centred care, and the responsible integration of new technologies into clinical practice.

Beyond the scientific sessions, ESHRE 2026 provided an excellent opportunity to exchange ideas with global experts, learn from cutting-edge research, and strengthen international collaborations that will ultimately benefit our patients.

Grateful for the opportunity to be part of this remarkable scientific gathering. Looking forward to translating these insights into better fertility care and improved patient outcomes.

For someone seeking fertility treatment, access to the right care at the right time can shape the entire experience. It can bring clarity during uncertainty, reassurance during difficult decisions, and renewed hope when the journey feels overwhelming.

This is why expanding Hegde Fertility has always meant more to me than simply opening another centre. It is about taking experienced, ethical, and compassionate fertility care closer to more individuals and couples.

The inauguration of our new branch in Nallagandla is an important step in that direction.

This new beginning has taken the commitment of many people across our organisation. Every detail, from preparing the centre to ensuring that patients feel supported from the moment they walk in, has been shaped by the collective effort of our team.

I am deeply grateful to everyone who has helped bring this centre to life. I am equally grateful to the families who have trusted Hegde Fertility over the years.

My best wishes to Dr. Soumya Harish, Consultant at our Nallagandla branch, as she takes this responsibility forward with knowledge, empathy, and dedication.

As we open our doors in Nallagandla, we do so with the same belief that has guided us from the beginning: fertility care must be clinically sound, deeply personal, and delivered with genuine empathy.

We look forward to serving more families and continuing to raise the standard of fertility care with knowledge, integrity, and compassion.

A scientific conference is more than a day of presentations. It is an opportunity to contribute, collaborate, and learn from one another.

It was an honour to contribute to Concepts 2 Conception (C2C) 2026, organised by Hegde Fertility in association with ARGI and OGSH, held on 14 January 2026 at ITC Kakatiya, Hyderabad, as a Conference Organiser, Speaker, and Moderator.

Helping create a platform where experts could exchange ideas on reproductive genetics and immunology, sharing practical perspectives on recurrent pregnancy loss and evidence-based evaluation, and facilitating discussions on emerging approaches to RPL management each contributed in a different way, but with the same purpose of advancing reproductive medicine and improving patient care.

When knowledge is shared, clinical decisions become clearer, treatment becomes more personalised, and patients ultimately benefit from more informed, evidence-based care.

I look forward to creating many more such opportunities that bring clinicians, researchers, and experts together to exchange knowledge, inspire collaboration, and continue advancing reproductive medicine for the benefit of every patient we serve.

Every couple that dreams to start a family, deserves to do so.

This requires medical science to constantly explore new frontiers and empower couples.

We have been doing our bit by organizing Concepts 2 Conception ( ), an interactive scientific platform that combines fundamental concepts with contemporary advances in reproductive medicine.

On 14 January 2026, we conducted the third edition of C2C in association with & , at ITC Kakatiya, Hyderabad.

Over 200 delegates contributed their learnings, ideas and experiences on how genetic and immunological evaluation helped improve outcomes in recurrent failures and loss cases when all other basic tests were normal.

It was a privilege to engage with distinguished speakers including Dr. Jayesh Amin, Prof. Vasanthi Palanivel, Dr. Sachin Honguntikar, Dr. Manjunath C. Swamy, Dr. Rashmi Yogish, Dr. Aruna Ashok, Dr. Nathalie Ledee, and many other colleagues who contributed to the academic exchange throughout the day.

My sincere thanks to the Obstetrics & Gynaecology Society of Hyderabad (OGSH), the Association of Reproductive Genetics & Immunology (ARGI), and the entire organising committee for creating a valuable platform for learning, collaboration, and scientific discussion.

Also, my gratitude to Telangana State Medical Council for awarding Hegde Fertility 2 points for organizing the conference.

Conversations like these are essential to shape the future of reproductive medicine and serve our patients better.

Fertility treatment is evolving beyond one-size-fits-all approaches, with increasing focus on how protocols can be adapted to individual patient needs while still staying evidence-based.

At VERDICT 4.0, I had the opportunity to speak on “Ovarian Stimulation: Individualization vs Protocol-Driven Practice” and discuss an important question in reproductive medicine today — is individualization truly meaningful, or is it sometimes only perceived personalization?

The session explored how clinicians balance standardised protocols with patient-specific decision making, especially in ovarian stimulation strategies where factors like age, ovarian reserve, previous response, and overall treatment goals all influence outcomes.

Academic discussions like these are valuable in helping us continuously question, refine, and improve the way fertility care is delivered in real-world practice.

Thank you Dr. Rajesh Koradia for the opportunity, and thank you to Mr. Nilesh and the team at Nivian Pharma for organising the session and creating a platform for meaningful scientific exchange.

Male fertility is an important part of the fertility conversation, yet many aspects of male subfertility still remain under-discussed and under-recognised.

At ANDROCON 2026, the 4th Annual Conference of the Andrology Section of the USI, it was valuable to be part of the discussions around the evolving interface between andrology and assisted reproductive techniques.

I had the opportunity to speak on “Approach to Seropositive Couples: Clinic to ART Lab” during the ART–Andrology Interface session, where the focus was on the collaborative role of clinicians, embryologists, and andrologists in improving treatment pathways and patient outcomes.

It was a pleasure sharing the panel with Dr. Rupin Shah, Dr. Vinod K V, Dr. Mamatha Deendayal, Dr. Lakshmi Chirumamilla, and Dr. Aakash Agarwal, with the session being moderated by Dr. Raghavender Kosgi.

Conferences like these create meaningful spaces for specialists from different disciplines to exchange perspectives, discuss challenges, and stay aligned with evolving practices in reproductive medicine.

Thank you ANDROCON 2026 for the insightful discussions and academic exchange throughout the conference.

Evolving understanding of how obesity influences fertility and overall health is steadily changing the way we approach treatment in women’s care.

At the International Speaker Program by Zydus on “Semaglutide in Obesity – A Paradigm Shift,” it was valuable to hear global and Indian perspectives come together on how newer therapies are being integrated into clinical practice.

It was a privilege to listen to Dr. Robert F. Kushner and gain insights into the evolving role of semaglutide in obesity management, and how these shifts are influencing patient outcomes across specialties.

The panel discussion brought together diverse clinical experiences, making it a meaningful exchange of practical insights and real-world applications.

Thankful to the organisers for putting together a well-curated academic session and creating space for such relevant conversations.
