What is IVF?

IVF is explained as in-vitro fertilization, which is specially designed to treat fertility issues in women. This treatment option gives them new hope to conceive a baby naturally. In addition to this, the IVF procedure simply works with your own eggs and sperm partner. But if you and your partner are unable to produce healthy eggs and sperm for fertilization, then you may need to go with donor eggs and sperm.

Moreover, in this process, fertilization takes place outside the body in the clinical lab. So, the doctor can observe the development of embryos.

IVF with your own eggs and sperm from your partner has 5 phases. These are:

Stimulation of the ovaries

First of all, your specialists examine you whether you are able to produce healthy eggs or not. If you are unable to produce healthy eggs, then she will surely give you an injection of hormone supplements, so that you can produce healthy eggs for fertilization. Once you are done with egg production, the specialist calls you to the clinic for egg collection.

Your doctor only collects the egg once they get matured, otherwise, you have to wait for some time for the egg retrieval process.

Egg retrieval process

In this process, your specialist collects the egg from ovaries, so that he can combine them with the sperm of your male partner. This process is done with the help of a thin needle so that it cannot harm your ovaries.

Sperm collection

Once the specialist is done with egg collection, then she collects the sperm from your male partner for the fertilization process.

Fertilization

This is a process of combining matured eggs and sperm for the development of embryos. As we stated above, this process is done by your own eggs and sperm collected from your male partner. Your specialist observes embryo growth, whether they are growing properly or not.

Embryo transfer

Once embryos develop properly, she transfers them to the uterus and waits for some days so that they can implant properly. After some days, she calls you for a routine check-up and to know whether you are conceiving or not.
