In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF)

  1. Fertility Treatment: IVF is a fertility treatment method that involves fertilizing an egg with sperm outside the body. The fertilized embryo is then transferred to the uterus. It is a valuable option for couples facing infertility due to various factors.

  2. Multiple Steps: IVF typically consists of several stages, including ovarian stimulation to produce multiple eggs, egg retrieval, fertilization in a laboratory dish, embryo culture, and embryo transfer into the uterus. The specific steps may vary based on individual circumstances.

  3. Success and Factors: The success of IVF can vary widely based on factors such as the woman’s age, the cause of infertility, and the clinic’s expertise. Success rates typically range from 20% to 35% per cycle. It’s essential to consult with a fertility specialist to determine the most suitable treatment plan based on your unique situation.

The IVF Process

The IVF process typically involves several steps. These steps include ovarian stimulation, egg retrieval, fertilisation, and embryo transfer.

Ovarian Stimulation

Before the egg retrieval procedure, the patient is given medication to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs. The medication is usually given in the form of injections and is carefully monitored by our team of fertility specialists. This step is crucial as it helps to maximise the number of mature eggs available for retrieval and fertilisation.

Egg Retrieval

During the egg retrieval procedure, a needle is inserted into the ovaries to remove the mature eggs. The procedure is usually done under sedation to minimise discomfort. The retrieved eggs are then taken to the laboratory for fertilisation.

Fertilisation

The eggs are then fertilised with sperm in a laboratory dish. The fertilisation process is closely monitored by our team of embryologists to ensure optimal conditions for embryo development. The fertilised eggs are kept in the laboratory for a few days to allow for embryo development.

Embryo Transfer

After the fertilised eggs have developed into embryos, one or more embryos are transferred to the uterus. The procedure is usually done under ultrasound guidance to ensure accurate placement of the embryos. The patient is advised to rest for a few days after the embryo transfer to maximise the chances of successful implantation.

Success Rates

The success rate of IVF varies depending on a number of factors, including the age of the patient and the cause of infertility. According to the American Pregnancy Association, the success rate for women under 35 is around 41-43% for a single cycle of IVF. However, at Vikram Hospitals, we understand that every patient is unique and that success rates can vary. That’s why we offer personalised care and support to each patient to maximise their chances of success.

Frequently Asked Questions

How successful is IVF in achieving pregnancy?

The success of IVF varies depending on several factors, including the woman’s age, the cause of infertility, and the clinic’s expertise. On average, the success rate for IVF in the United States is around 20-35% per cycle. Your fertility specialist can provide a more accurate estimate based on your specific situation.

Are there any age limitations for undergoing IVF?

While there is no strict age limit for IVF, success rates tend to decline with age, particularly after the age of 35. However, many clinics offer IVF to women in their 40s and even early 50s, depending on their overall health and specific circumstances.

What are the potential risks and side effects of IVF?

IVF may carry some risks and side effects, including a higher chance of multiple pregnancies (twins or more), ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), and a slight increased risk of birth defects. Additionally, the process can be emotionally and financially challenging. Your healthcare provider will discuss these risks and potential complications with you before starting treatment.
