IVF / ICSI Treatment
Advanced assisted reproductive technology combining In Vitro Fertilization with Intra-Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection to facilitate fertilization and embryo development.
About this treatment
In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) and Intra-Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) are advanced assisted reproductive techniques designed to assist fertilization. During IVF, retrieved eggs are combined with prepared sperm in a specialized laboratory environment. ICSI enhances this process by precisely selecting a single healthy sperm and injecting it directly into a mature egg. Embryos are carefully monitored as they develop before being selected for transfer into the uterus during an optimized cycle.
Who this is for
- Couples experiencing male factor infertility, including low sperm count, motility, or morphology
- Women with blocked, damaged, or absent fallopian tubes
- Individuals with unexplained infertility or previous unsuccessful fertilization cycles
What happens
-
1
Initial Consultation & Testing
Comprehensive assessment of hormone levels, ultrasound evaluation, and semen analysis to tailor the treatment protocol.
-
2
Ovarian Stimulation
Daily fertility medications are administered over 10–12 days to stimulate the growth of multiple mature eggs.
-
3
Egg Retrieval & Sperm Collection
A minor outpatient procedure under mild sedation gathers eggs while a sperm sample is prepared in the lab.
-
4
ICSI Fertilization & Embryo Culture
A single viable sperm is injected into each mature egg, and resulting embryos are monitored in the embryology lab for 3–5 days.
-
5
Embryo Transfer
One or more selected embryos are gently placed into the uterus using a fine catheter; remaining suitable embryos may be frozen.
How to prepare
- Complete all required baseline blood tests, infectious disease screenings, and pelvic ultrasounds prior to starting your cycle.
- Maintain a balanced lifestyle, avoid smoking and alcohol, and take prescribed daily prenatal vitamins including folic acid.
- Attend scheduled monitoring appointments precisely on time for accurate hormone adjustments and ultrasound tracking.
