What is In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF)?

IVF

In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is an assisted reproductive technology (ART) that involves fertilizing an egg with sperm outside the body in a laboratory setting. Through this procedure, an embryo can be created and subsequently transferred to a woman’s uterus to become a pregnancy. When faced with infertility problems, such as blocked fallopian tubes, male factor infertility, unexplained infertility, and other reproductive disorders, individuals and couples frequently turn to in-vitro fertilization (IVF).

How Does IVF Work?

Work

In order to make embryos through in vitro fertilization (IVF), a woman’s eggs and a man’s sperm are combined in a regulated lab setting. This approach avoids a number of natural conception phases, including the sperm’s passage through the female reproductive tract and the sperm and egg’s meeting in the fallopian tubes. By doing so, IVF can overcome many barriers to conception, providing a viable path to pregnancy for many individuals and couples.

Stages of IVF

Stages

stage-1
Ovarian Stimulation:
  • Purpose : To stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs.
  • Process : The woman takes fertility medications, typically for about 10-14 days. These medications, often in the form of hormone injections, encourage the ovaries to develop multiple follicles, each potentially containing an egg. Frequent monitoring through blood tests and ultrasounds tracks the growth and development of these follicles to determine the optimal time for egg retrieval.
stage-2
Egg Retrieval:
  • Purpose : To collect mature eggs from the ovaries.
  • Process : When the eggs are deemed mature (usually after about 10-14 days of stimulation), a minor surgical procedure called follicular aspiration is performed. Egg Retrieval is typically done under sedation or light anaesthesia. Using ultrasound guidance, a thin needle is inserted through the vaginal wall to reach the ovaries and aspirate the fluid from the follicles, collecting the eggs. This procedure usually takes about 20-30 minutes, and patients can typically go home the same day.
stage-3
Sperm Collection:
  • Purpose : To obtain sperm for fertilization.
  • Process : A sperm sample is collected from the male partner or a donor on the day of egg retrieval. The sample is processed in the lab to isolate the healthiest, most motile sperm. In some cases, if a fresh sperm sample is not available, previously frozen sperm may be used.
stage-4
Fertilization:
  • Purpose : To create embryos.
  • Process : The collected eggs and sperm are combined in the laboratory. Fertilization can be done in two major ways:
    • Conventional Insemination : It involves placing sperm and eggs together in a culture dish and incubating them, allowing fertilization to occur naturally.
    • Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) : It involves injecting a single sperm directly into each developed egg. ICSI is often used in cases of male factor infertility or previous fertilization failures. The fertilized eggs (now embryos) are monitored over the next few days for development.
stage-5
Embryo Transfer:
  • Purpose : To place the embryos into the woman’s uterus.
  • Process : Typically, 3-5 days after fertilization, one or more healthy embryos are selected for transfer. The procedure is relatively simple and painless, similar to a pap smear. The embryos are inserted into the uterus via a tiny tube. The number of embryos transferred is based on various factors, including the woman’s age, embryo quality, and specific fertility issues. For future use, the remaining viable embryos can be frozen.
stage-6
Pregnancy Test:
  • Purpose : To confirm pregnancy.
  • Process : About 10-14 days after the embryo transfer, a blood test (beta hCG) is performed to check for pregnancy. This test measures the levels of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), a hormone produced by the developing placenta. If the test is positive, it indicates a successful implantation and pregnancy. Follow-up tests and ultrasounds will confirm the progress and viability of the pregnancy.

How long does the IVF process take?

The IVF process typically takes 4 to 6 weeks. It includes 10-14 days of ovarian stimulation, the egg retrieval procedure, 3-5 days of fertilization and embryo culture, and embryo transfer. Within 10 to 14 days of the transfer, a pregnancy test is conducted. Initial consultations and diagnostic tests may add more time.

Is IVF painful?

Is IVF painful?

IVF procedures may cause discomfort but are generally manageable with medication. Hormone injections during ovarian stimulation can cause mild bloating and cramping. Egg retrieval, performed under sedation, may result in some cramping afterwards. Embryo transfer is typically painless. Overall, any discomfort is usually mild and manageable with support from your medical team.
