IVF infertility surgery in India:
IVF
(In vitro fertilization) surgery in India is performed by highly skilled and
experienced surgeons. The IVF is the joining of a woman’s egg and men’s sperm
in a laboratory dish. The term “in vitro” indicates that “outside the body”
while fertilization means “the sperm has attached to and entered the egg”.
IVF infertility Procedure:
IVF is a form of Assisted
Reproductive Technology (ART) that uses special medical techniques to help
women become pregnant. This treatment has been successful since 1978 and often
tried when other less costly fertility techniques have failed.
The five basic steps for the
IVF infertility procedure include the following:
1) Stimulation, also called
as super ovulation:
Women
are given medicines called as fertility drugs to boost her egg production. Normally,
a woman produces one egg per month, but the fertility drugs tell the ovaries to
produce several eggs. During the super ovulation, women will be required to
have blood tests to check her hormone levels and transvaginal ultrasound
regularly to examine the ovaries.
2) Egg retrieval:
A
minor surgery known as follicular aspiration is performed to remove the eggs
from the woman’s body. Usually, this surgery is done as an outpatient procedure
at the doctor’s clinic. The female patient will be given medicines so that she
does not feel pain during this surgery. Your doctor will use the ultrasound
images as a guide while inserting a thin needle through the vagina into the
ovary and follicles containing eggs. Then the needle is connected to a suction
device so as to pull the eggs and fluid out of each follicle, one at a time.
This process is repeated for the other ovary.
Post
surgery, the patient may feel cramping, which will subside within a day. In
rare cases, a pelvic laparoscopy will be required to remove the eggs. In case
of the woman do not or cannot produce any eggs, then donated eggs may be used.
3) Insemination and
fertilization:
The
man’s sperm is placed together with the best quality eggs and this is stored in
an environmentally controlled chamber. The process of mixing the sperm and the
egg is called as insemination. Usually, the sperm enters or fertilizes an egg a
few hours after insemination. If the doctor thinks the chance of fertilization
is low, then the laboratory staff may directly inject the sperm into the egg
and this process is called as intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). Most
fertility programs routinely perform ICSI on some of the eggs, even when
everything is normal.
4) Embryo culture:
When
the fertilized eggs divide, then it becomes an embryo. The laboratory staff
will check the embryo regularly to ensure that it grows properly. A normal
embryo has several cells, which divides actively within a period of five days.
Couples
having high risk of passing a hereditary disorder to a child may consider a pre-implantation
genetic diagnosis (PGD). Usually, this procedure is performed about three to
four days after fertilization.
5) Embryo transfer:
The
embryos are placed into the woman’s womb three to five days after the egg
retrieval and fertilization. The female patient will be awake during this
procedure and it is often performed at the doctor’s clinic.
