Treatment for infertile couples is different depending on many different factors, but most couples experience the same procedures. If you are thinking about having children, understanding the IVF treatment can help ease your fears.
In vitro fertilization treatments help patients to conceive by taking the egg that is fertilized by taking a donor egg from a woman who is expecting a baby. The sperm from the egg is then added to the egg by a male specialist in a laboratory. After the embryo has reached the optimal stage of development, it can be transferred to the woman's uterus and grow.
By using ovulation stimulation, the female ovaries will produce more eggs, and when it is time to retrieve them, there will be more than one. If the ovaries are ready, the egg and follicular fluid will be removed from them, using a thin, flexible needle that will be guided by an ultrasound. Patients are usually sedated during the process and are under the care of an anesthesiologist during this process. Then sperm from a man who has been in a relationship with another woman, or a donor, will fuse with the egg in a laboratory. Fertilization can occur naturally or via intracytoplasmic sperm injections (ICSI) into the woman's ovaries. After 3-6 days in culture, the embryo will either be transferred to the woman's uterus or kept frozen to be transferred later. It is while the embryo is maturing that pregnancy will occur.
