IVF Treatment for Fertility
The IVF department at Greenview Medical Centre is staffed with a dedicated team of specialists and gynecologists, equipped with state-of-the-art facilities to address all infertility-related issues. In a natural conception process, an egg is released from the ovary and fertilized in the fallopian tube before implanting in the uterine cavity for further development. However, due to various reasons, many couples may face challenges with this natural process, leading them to seek IVF treatment.
In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) involves fertilizing an egg and sperm in a laboratory setting, with the resulting embryo then implanted into the uterus under optimal conditions for growth and development.
IVF has emerged as a highly successful form of assisted reproductive technology (ART). Before commencing IVF treatment, our specialists conduct thorough evaluations, including blood tests and ultrasound scans, to assess any reproductive concerns or issues.
IVF is typically recommended for patients with conditions such as:
- Infertile or damaged fallopian tubes
- Low sperm count and motility
- Irregular menstrual cycles and ovulation disorders
- Hormonal imbalances leading to recurrent miscarriages
- Early ovarian failure
- Presence of fibroids
- Unexplained infertility
At Greenview Medical Centre, our specialists implement the best IVF treatment protocols, utilizing cutting-edge facilities tailored for optimal IVF, IUI, and ICSI outcomes.
The IVF procedure, under the guidance of our infertility specialists, involves several steps:
Ovulation Induction: Our specialists monitor the ovulation process and administer medications to stimulate follicle development, ensuring the release of one or more eggs with optimal hormone levels. This step aims to collect the healthiest eggs from the ovaries to enhance the chances of successful fertilization. Egg development is monitored through ultrasound scans and blood tests.
Egg Retrieval: Mature eggs are retrieved through a minor surgical procedure and placed in sterile containers under appropriate hormone levels.
Insemination & Fertilization: Sperm collection is followed by the concentration of motile sperm. In a sterile environment, eggs and sperm are combined to facilitate fertilization and the development of viable embryos.
Embryo Transfer and Implantation: The healthiest and fastest-growing embryos are transferred to the uterine cavity for further development. This marks the completion of the IVF treatment process, with any remaining embryos preserved under optimal conditions.
After the IVF procedure, patients are advised to rest for at least 24 hours. It is essential to monitor for any post-treatment discomfort, including:
- Discharge of fluids from the cervix
- Breast tenderness due to elevated estrogen levels
- Mild cramping and bloating
- Constipation
