Infertility & IVF
Overview
Infertility and IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) treatments focus on helping couples and individuals overcome challenges in conceiving a child. IVF is a widely used assisted reproductive technology (ART) that helps with fertilization, embryo development, and implantation in cases of infertility.
Infertility can be caused by various factors, including hormonal imbalances, structural problems in the reproductive organs, or issues with sperm quality. IVF offers a solution for individuals or couples who face difficulties in achieving pregnancy naturally.
What is Infertility & IVF?
Infertility refers to the inability to conceive after a year or more of regular, unprotected intercourse. It can affect both men and women, and the causes vary widely. IVF is a medical procedure that helps individuals and couples achieve pregnancy through assisted reproductive techniques, including:
- Egg Retrieval: Eggs are collected from the woman’s ovaries and combined with sperm in a lab to create embryos.
- Fertilization: The eggs are fertilized using sperm from the male partner or a sperm donor.
- Embryo Culture: The fertilized embryos are cultured for several days before being implanted in the uterus.
- Embryo Transfer: The best-quality embryo is selected and transferred into the woman's uterus for potential pregnancy.
- Egg and Sperm Donation: In cases where the patient’s eggs or sperm are not viable, donor eggs or sperm can be used in the IVF procedure.
In addition to IVF, various other assisted reproductive technologies such as IUI (Intrauterine Insemination), ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection), and egg freezing are available to assist in the process of conception.
When is Infertility & IVF Needed?
IVF and infertility treatments are recommended in various situations, such as:
- Blocked or Damaged Fallopian Tubes: If the fallopian tubes are blocked or damaged, IVF can bypass this issue by placing the embryo directly in the uterus.
- Male Infertility: IVF can be used in cases where the male partner has low sperm count or sperm motility issues.
- Endometriosis: Women with endometriosis, where tissue similar to the uterine lining grows outside the uterus, may benefit from IVF when other treatments fail.
- Age-Related Infertility: As women age, egg quality and quantity decline, leading to difficulty conceiving. IVF can be an option for women who are older or have a diminished ovarian reserve.
- Unexplained Infertility: In some cases, infertility causes may be unexplained after medical tests. IVF can offer an effective solution in these cases.
- Repeated Miscarriages: Couples who have experienced multiple miscarriages may be candidates for IVF, as it allows for genetic screening of embryos.
If you’ve been struggling with infertility, IVF is often considered after other less invasive treatments, such as medication or intrauterine insemination (IUI), have not been successful.
