What is IVF?
In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is one of the most advanced assisted reproductive techniques, designed to help couples struggling with infertility achieve pregnancy. The process involves stimulating the ovaries to produce multiple eggs, retrieving them, and fertilizing them with sperm in a specialized laboratory. Once fertilization occurs, the best-quality embryo is carefully transferred into the woman’s uterus to establish a healthy pregnancy.
Who Needs IVF?
IVF is recommended for couples and individuals who face difficulties conceiving naturally or through simpler fertility treatments. Some common reasons include:
Blocked or damaged fallopian tubes
Severe male factor infertility, such as low sperm count or poor motility
Ovulation disorders or hormonal imbalances
Endometriosis affecting reproductive organs
Unexplained infertility despite multiple attempts
Couples with genetic conditions requiring embryo screening
Women of advanced maternal age or those seeking fertility preservation through egg/embryo freezing
Benefits of IVF
Higher success rates: IVF offers a greater chance of conception compared to other fertility methods.
Overcomes complex infertility issues: Effective for both male and female infertility conditions.
Supports fertility preservation: Allows egg and embryo freezing for future use.
Genetic screening options: Helps reduce the risk of inherited genetic conditions through advanced testing.
Hope after failed treatments: Provides a solution for couples who have not succeeded with IUI or medication-based treatments.
The IVF Process
Ovarian Stimulation: Hormonal injections stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs.
Egg Retrieval: Mature eggs are collected through a minor procedure.
Fertilization: Eggs are combined with sperm in the laboratory.
Embryo Culture: Fertilized eggs (embryos) are monitored for growth and quality.
Embryo Transfer: The healthiest embryo is transferred to the uterus.
Pregnancy Test: After two weeks, a test confirms if implantation has occurred.
