IVF means In-Vitro Fertilization, which is a type of assisted reproductive technology used to treat infertility. IVF is a procedure where the egg and sperm are placed together in a glass dish (in vitro) and then transferred into the womb.
IVF consists of several steps:
- Ovulation induction – A fertility doctor will give you hormones to make your ovaries produce more eggs than usual. You may also have an ultrasound to check when you’re most likely to release an egg.
- Egg retrieval – The doctor uses a needle to remove eggs from your ovaries during this procedure.
- Fertilization – The eggs are mixed with sperm in a glass dish in the lab and left to allow the sperm and egg to meet and fuse together. This process is known as fertilization.
- Embryo transfer – Any embryos that have grown into blastocysts embryos (day 5 embryos) are transferred into your uterus using a small catheter (tube).
Benefits of IVF?
- You Can Have More Control Over the Process
With IVF, couples have more control over the process than with other fertility treatments, like IUI. - It’s More Successful Than Other Treatments
The success rates of IVF depend on a number of factors, including the age of the woman, the quality of the eggs, and the experience of the fertility clinic. However, overall, IVF has a higher success rate than other fertility treatments. - It’s a Safe and Effective Treatment
IVF is a safe and effective treatment. The risks of IVF are low, and the majority of women who have IVF will have a successful pregnancy.
if you are not able to conceive naturally or have multiple failed IUI attempts, IVF may be the best option for you. It’s a safe, effective, and successful treatment that can help you have the family you’ve always wanted.
