In Vitro Fertilization

In vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment is a common and effective assisted reproduction method for couples who have difficulty conceiving a child. This treatment method, which is preferred especially when pregnancy cannot be achieved naturally or when there are some infertility problems, has been the light of hope for many couples for many years.The treatment process usually consists of the following steps:Preparation and Counseling: Before starting IVF treatment, the couple undergoes a comprehensive health assessment. Your doctor examines your medical history, determines whether you are suitable for treatment and performs the necessary tests. A treatment plan is created at this stage.Stimulation of the ovaries: The ovaries of the woman are stimulated with hormone medications and more than one egg matures. This process takes about 10-14 days and development is monitored by ultrasound.Egg Collection Mature eggs are collected under mild anesthesia. This procedure is painless and completed in a short time.Fertilization: The collected eggs are fertilized in the laboratory with the sperm of the father-to-be. The fertilized eggs become embryos, which are left to develop in the laboratory for a certain period of time.Embryo Transfer: The best quality of the developing embryos is implanted into the mother's uterus. The transfer is usually painless and takes a short time.Pregnancy Test: Approximately 10-12 days after the embryo transfer, a pregnancy test is performed to check whether the pregnancy has occurred.Success rates in IVF treatment may vary depending on the couple's age, health status and response to treatment. Each couple's process is different and the approach to treatment is planned individually.
