One of the significant contributions of Prof. Ashiru in the field of reproductive endocrinology is in the elucidation of mechanisms controlling pituitary gonadotropins (FSH) release.
He showed that exogenous FSH has a positive feedback on the release of endogenous FSH. That is the basic science behind the use of exogenous gonadotropins (Pergonal, Metrodin and others) for extra follicular development, in infertility management and IVF cycles. Currently his area of research is in embryo culture techniques and implantation failure.
He pioneered the IVF program in Nigeria in 1984 and his team successfully delivered the first test tube baby in Africa in 1986. He has over twenty five years in the management of difficult cases of infertility, twenty eight years experience in IVF and fifteen years experience with ICSI and new assisted reproduction technologies
He was appointed Consultant reproductive Endocrinologist to Lagos University Teaching Hospital in 1980 and Professor of Anatomy in 1983, making him the youngest appointed professor in Nigeria at the age of thirty two. He was reproductive Endocrinologist in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology in Omaha in 1978.
He obtained a joint appointment with the departments of Anatomy and Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Illinois at Chicago(UIC) at Professorial level. He established two IVF programs for the University in 1996 and became the pioneer director of the University based IVF program at Chicago in 1996. It is currently one of the best IVF centres in the US. He has established collaborations with several infertility centres internationally. Professor Ashiru obtained the licentiate of the American Board of Bioanalysis in High Complexity Laboratory Director HCLD (ABB) in 1997.(The American regulatory and licensing body for assisted reproduction technologies).

My name is Olawale Adekoya, 42. My wife, Ayodeji came here in 2011 to seek help via artificial means. However, during the scans/tests we discovered she was pregnant. We lost the pregnancy at 8 months, it was Prof Ashiru who helped us secure a bed and admission as it was during the ‘Fuel Subsidy’ crisis. Finally, we conceived again after a thorough, detailed and efficient monitoring by Medical ART center staff, especially Dr Adewusi and Dr Okeke- under the guidance of Prof Ashiru. We thank you so much. Today we have a boy, Oluwasemilore Adekoya. He’s 2yrs 4 months- strong, hale and hearty. Wale Adekoya Date: 26-03-2016

Glory be to God. This has been a wonderful experience. We started with Medical ART Center from the Detox programme to IVF after two previous unsuccessful trials at another clinic. Everything was handled professionally with an uncompromising eye for quality. We are even more grateful for the prompt and urgent intervention of the doctors when complication came up during the last trimester. This action saved our baby and also saved my life. We thank God for directing us here. We thank Prof. Ashiru, all the doctors, nurses and staff of Medical ART Center and Mart Life for their care, compassion and love.

IT’S AWESOME! We came to this clinic/hospital for IVF treatment and the result was positive and our treatment was practically handled by professionals. We’ve had to recommend this clinic for a number of people both within and outside the country.
