In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a sophisticated and effective treatment designed to assist couples and individuals facing infertility challenges. At Stem&Gene ART Clinic, we offer state-of-the-art IVF procedures, providing hope and solutions for those eager to start or expand their families. IVF can also be utilized to prevent the transmission of genetic disorders, ensuring the health and well-being of future generations.
What is IVF?
IVF involves a series of meticulously orchestrated steps aimed at achieving pregnancy. This process includes the collection of mature eggs from the ovaries, fertilization by sperm in a controlled laboratory environment, and the transfer of the resulting embryos into the uterus.
The IVF Process
- Ovarian Stimulation and Monitoring: Hormonal medications are administered to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs. Regular ultrasounds and blood tests are conducted to monitor the development of the eggs.
- Egg Retrieval: Once the eggs are mature, they are collected from the ovaries using a minimally invasive procedure called transvaginal ultrasound aspiration.
- Fertilization: The retrieved eggs are then fertilized with sperm in our advanced laboratory. This can be done through conventional insemination or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), where a single sperm is injected directly into an egg.
- Embryo Culture: The fertilized eggs (embryos) are cultured in a specialized environment for several days. Our embryologists closely monitor their development to select the most viable embryos.
- Embryo Transfer: One or more high-quality embryos are carefully placed into the uterus. This step is guided by ultrasound to ensure precise placement.
- Pregnancy Test: About two weeks after the embryo transfer, a blood test is performed to determine if the procedure was successful.
Tailored IVF Treatments
At Stem&Gene ART Clinic, we recognize that every patient’s situation is unique. We offer personalized IVF treatments that can involve:
- Couple’s Own Eggs and Sperm: Using the eggs and sperm of the couple undergoing treatment.
- Donor Eggs, Sperm, or Embryos: Utilizing donated eggs, sperm, or embryos from known or anonymous donors.
- Gestational Carrier: Employing a gestational carrier to carry the pregnancy for individuals who cannot carry a pregnancy themselves.
Success Factors and Considerations
The likelihood of a successful IVF treatment at Stem&Gene ART Clinic is influenced by various factors, including:
- Age: Younger women generally have higher success rates.
- Infertility Cause: Certain infertility issues may impact the success rate of IVF.
- Lifestyle: Maintaining a healthy lifestyle can improve outcomes.
- Embryo Quality: The health and viability of embryos play a crucial role.
While IVF is the most effective form of assisted reproductive technology, it requires a commitment to a potentially time-consuming, expensive, and invasive process. Additionally, transferring more than one embryo can increase the chance of multiple pregnancies, which come with higher risks for both the mother and babies.
