Infertility Ivf

Infertility IVF

IVF (in vitro fertilization) is a fertility treatment where eggs are fertilized with sperm in a lab to help individuals or couples achieve pregnancy. The process involves stimulating the ovaries to produce multiple eggs, retrieving the eggs, and fertilizing them in a petri dish. The resulting embryos are then transferred to the uterus, where pregnancy occurs if an embryo successfully implants. In some cases, donor eggs may be used, and the goal is to support the embryo’s development until birth.

What is IVF?

IVF is an assisted reproductive technology where eggs are retrieved from the ovaries and fertilized with sperm in a lab. The resulting embryo is then placed in the uterus, and pregnancy occurs if it implants in the uterine wall. This process mimics natural conception, where sperm fertilizes an egg in the fallopian tube, and the fertilized egg moves to the uterus to develop.

Why is IVF performed?

IVF is performed for various reasons, such as infertility or health conditions, including:

• Blocked or damaged fallopian tubes

• Endometriosis

• Low sperm count or sperm impairments

• Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)

• Uterine fibroids or other uterine problems

• Genetic disease risk

• Unexplained infertility

• Using an egg donor or gestational surrogate.

Who Should Consider IVF?

IVF can benefit individuals with various infertility issues, including:

• Blocked or damaged fallopian tubes preventing sperm from reaching the egg or the fertilized egg from reaching the uterus.

• Endometriosis, where endometrium-like tissue is found outside the uterus.

• Male factor infertility due to low sperm count, motility issues, or abnormal sperm shape.

• Primary ovarian insufficiency (POI), where ovaries stop functioning before age 40, leading to irregular or no egg release.

• Removal of ovaries.

• Age-related fertility declines due to diminished ovarian reserve or poor egg quality.

• Unexplained infertility.

Procedure:

Ovarian Stimulation:

• Fertility drugs are used to increase egg production.

• Multiple eggs are collected to improve chances of pregnancy.

Egg Retrieval:

• Performed 36 hours after ovarian stimulation using follicular aspiration.

• Needle guided by transvaginal ultrasound removes eggs from follicles.

• Anesthesia is used, and the process takes 15 to 30 minutes.

Fertilization:

• Eggs are mixed with sperm from a partner or donor in a petri dish.

• 65% to 80% of eggs typically fertilize.

• ICSI (intracytoplasmic sperm injection) may be used for male factor infertility.

Embryo Culture:

• Fertilized eggs divide and grow into embryos.

• Embryos are monitored in the lab for 2 to 5 days.

Embryo Transfer:

• Transfer may be fresh (same cycle) or frozen (in a later cycle).

• Frozen embryo transfer (FET) is often preferred for recovery and testing purposes.

Advanced Techniques:

• ICSI: Direct injection of a single sperm into an egg.

• PGD: Genetic testing of embryos to screen for conditions before transfer.

• Cryopreservation: Freezing of embryos, eggs, or sperm for future use.

Risks and Potential Complications of IVF:

• Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS

• Blood Clots

• Infection

• Abdominal Bleeding

• Ovarian or Fallopian Tube Twisting

• Allergic Reaction to Medications

• Anesthesia Complications
