On-site In Vitro fertilization (IVF) is rapidly becoming the most popular choice of treatment for couples with various types of infertility. It is generally accepted as the most successful and fastest method available to achieve pregnancy. While it was initially reserved for patients with blocked, damaged, or absent fallopian tubes (tubal factor infertility), IVF is now also used to overcome infertility caused by endometriosis, male factor issues, diminished egg quality, ovulatory problems, or other unexplained reasons.
IVF is an advanced method of assisted reproduction in which the man’s sperm and the woman’s eggs are combined in a laboratory where fertilization occurs, and the resultant embryos are then transferred to the woman’s uterus (embryo transfer) in hopes of achieving a pregnancy. Initially, the patient undergoes ovulation enhancement (superovulation) with a combination of injectable fertility medications that results in the development of multiple eggs in both ovaries. When the eggs have sufficiently matured, the transvaginal ultrasound-guided egg retrieval procedure is then performed in the office, with an anesthesiologist present to provide complete pain relief. The patient is discharged home soon after the procedure.
