IVF process and its components:-
1. Initial Consultation and Assessment
Medical History Review:
Specialists: Phular IVF likely has a team of experienced and qualified reproductive endocrinologists, embryologists, and fertility specialists.
Physical Examination:
General physical examination and specific reproductive health assessments.
Diagnostic Tests:
Blood tests, ultrasounds, semen analysis, and other tests to identify any underlying issues affecting fertility.
2. Ovarian Stimulation
Hormone Injections:
Women undergo hormone injections (such as FSH and LH) to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs.
Monitoring:
Regular monitoring through blood tests and ultrasounds to track the development of follicles (fluid-filled sacs containing the eggs).
3. Egg Retrieval
Trigger Shot:
An injection of hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) is given to mature the eggs.
Procedure:
Eggs are retrieved from the ovaries using a fine needle guided by ultrasound, usually under sedation.
4. Sperm Collection and Preparation
Collection:
Sperm is collected from the male partner or a sperm donor.
Preparation:
Sperm is processed and concentrated to select the most viable sperm for fertilization.
5. Fertilization
Insemination:
Eggs and sperm are combined in a laboratory dish to allow fertilization.
ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection):
In cases of male infertility, a single sperm is injected directly into an egg.
6. Embryo Culture
Development:
Fertilized eggs (now embryos) are cultured in the lab for a few days.
Monitoring:
Embryos are monitored for growth and development, typically reaching the blastocyst stage by day 5-6.
7. Embryo Transfer
Selection:
The best quality embryo(s) are selected for transfer.
Procedure:
Embryos are transferred into the woman’s uterus using a thin catheter, a relatively simple and painless procedure.
8. Pregnancy Test
Confirmation:
About 10-14 days after the embryo transfer, a blood test is performed to check for pregnancy.
