In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is one of the most effective and widely used fertility treatments available today. IVF helps individuals and couples overcome infertility by fertilizing an egg with sperm in a specialized laboratory and transferring a healthy embryo into the uterus.
Our fertility specialists combine advanced reproductive technology with personalized, compassionate care to support patients at every stage of their fertility journey.
What Is In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)?
IVF is a fertility treatment in which eggs are retrieved from the ovaries and fertilized with sperm outside the body in a controlled laboratory environment. Once fertilization occurs, embryos are carefully monitored before being transferred into the uterus to achieve pregnancy.
IVF is often recommended when other fertility treatments have been unsuccessful or when specific medical conditions affect natural conception.
Who Is a Candidate for IVF?
- Blocked or damaged fallopian tubes
- Male factor infertility (low sperm count or motility)
- Endometriosis
- Ovulation disorders
- Unexplained infertility
- Recurrent pregnancy loss
- Previous unsuccessful fertility treatments
Each patient undergoes a thorough evaluation to determine whether IVF is the most appropriate treatment option.
The IVF Treatment Process
Ovarian Stimulation and Monitoring
IVF begins with ovarian stimulation using fertility medications called gonadotropins. These medications encourage the ovaries to produce multiple eggs over 10–14 days. Blood tests and ultrasounds are used to monitor progress.
Trigger Injection
When the eggs reach optimal maturity, a trigger injection is administered to prepare them for retrieval.
Egg Retrieval
Egg retrieval is a minimally invasive outpatient procedure performed under light anesthesia. Mature eggs are collected using ultrasound guidance, and patients usually return home the same day.
Fertilization and Embryo Development
Retrieved eggs are fertilized with sperm in the laboratory. Embryos are monitored for several days to assess development and quality.
Embryo Transfer
A carefully selected embryo is transferred into the uterus using a thin catheter guided by ultrasound. The procedure is quick, painless, and does not require anesthesia.
Single embryo transfer is often recommended to reduce the risk of multiple pregnancies.
Embryo Freezing (Cryopreservation)
High-quality embryos not transferred can be frozen for future use, providing additional chances of pregnancy without repeating the entire IVF cycle.
IVF Success Rates
IVF success depends on age, diagnosis, embryo quality, and overall reproductive health. Treatment plans are customized to maximize success while prioritizing patient safety.
