1. Diagnostic Assessment

Before embarking on an IVF course, your fertility team conducts comprehensive evaluations to assess your reproductive health and identify any underlying conditions that could influence treatment outcomes. These diagnostic tests may encompass blood analyses, ultrasounds, and semen assessments. Tloring the IVF protocol according to individual needs based on these evaluations optimizes success rates.

2. Ovarian Stimulation

The objective of ovarian stimulation is to promote follicular growth that culminates in egg maturation. This process involves administering fertility medications designed for this purpose, which your doctor closely monitors through regular ultrasounds and hormone levels check-ups.

3. Egg Harvesting

Upon identifying the optimal time when follicles are mature enough for retrieval, an injection of chorionic gonadotropin hCG is administered to trigger ovulation. Approximately thirty-six hours later, your fertility specialist performs the egg retrieval procedure using ultrasound guidance, which, under anesthesia, ensures patient comfort.

4. Fertilization and Development

The collected sperm, either from a male partner or donor, undergoes fertilization with the eggs in our laboratory. Once formed, these embryos start dividing rapidly over several days before becoming blastocysts on day five, ready for potential genetic screening should you opt for preimplantation genetic testing PGT.

5. Embryo Transfer

The final step involves transferring one or more blastocysts into your uterus through a catheter guided by our fertility doctor. The number of embryos to transfer is decided in advance based on multiple factors including treatment goals and individual health conditions.
