What is IVF Treatment?
IVF treatment (In Vitro Fertilization) is the process of fertilizing an egg and sperm cell in a laboratory environment and placing the embryo in the uterus. This treatment is offered as an option for couples who have not been able to have children naturally, due to various reasons such as blocked tubes, ovulation problems or male infertility.
Who can get IVF treatment?
IVF is generally recommended for couples with blocked tubes, endometriosis (chocolate cysts), male infertility (azoospermia and impaired sperm values), ovulation problems or other medical conditions. In addition, couples with certain genetic disorders may prefer IVF treatment for genetically healthy embryo selection.
How long does IVF treatment take?
The IVF process can usually last from a few weeks to a few months. The first steps include ovarian stimulation and egg collection. For this, daily injections are given for an average of 2 weeks, sometimes a little longer, depending on the selected treatment protocol, and the growth of the eggs is monitored. After the eggs reach the appropriate size, a cracking needle is administered and the eggs are collected under anesthesia. The collected eggs are combined with sperm in a laboratory environment. After fertilization and embryo development are monitored, a suitable embryo is transferred to the uterus. The transfer process can be immediate, or the embryo can be frozen and transferred in the following months.
