Understanding IVF: An Overview

In Vitro Fertilization IVF is a medical procedure med at assisting couples who are having difficulty conceiving naturally. retrieving mature eggs from the ovaries, fertilizing them with sperm outside the body, and then transferring an embryo or embryos into the uterus. This technique is widely used for fertility issues such as blocked fallopian tubes, male factor infertility, or unexplned infertility.

The IVF Process: A Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Preparation Phase: Patients undergo a consultation to discuss their medical history and receive guidance on dietary and lifestyle adjustments that could enhance their chances of successful IVF.

  2. Stimulation: To increase the number of eggs produced by the ovaries, patients may be administered hormonal injections or medications for a period known as 'ovulation induction'. This phase stimulate egg maturation effectively.

  5. Embryo Cultivation: Once fertilized, the embryos undergo incubation until they reach a suitable stage for transfer or cryopreservation.
