In vitro fertilisation (IVF) is a well-known assisted reproductive technology (ART) used to help a couple conceive. In IVF, the fertilisation process happens in a laboratory, rather than inside the female partner’s body. The female partner’s eggs are retrieved from her ovaries and fertilised in a lab using the male partner’s sperm, which is taken from a semen sample. After fertilisation, the resulting embryo is then transferred to the uterus of the female, after being cultured in an incubator for a few days. The transfer is followed by implantation that results in pregnancy when successful.
Compared to other fertility treatments, IVF treatment offers the best chance of success. The success rate varies based on factors such as age, medical history, and investigation results. Though by IVF, a couple has up to a 60% chance of success, the success rate may vary from couple to couple and may not be the same for all couples.
IVF is a good option for the couples who cannot conceive through the conventional methods.
The fallopian tube may be blocked or damaged, preventing the sperm from reaching the egg or preventing the egg, or fertilized egg (zygote) from moving from the ovary to the uterus to be implanted. Abnormalities in the pelvis can prevent the egg from attaching to (implanting in) the lining of the uterus and can block the fallopian tubes.
Endometriosis is a condition in which the layer of tissue that normally covers the inside of the uterus grows outside of it. Most often this is on the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and tissue around the uterus and ovaries; however, in rare cases it may also occur in other parts of the body. The main symptoms are pelvic pain and infertility.
Male infertility has many causes ranging from hormonal imbalances, to physical problems, psychological and/or behavioral problems. Habbits like Smoking and alcohol consumption, Anabolic steroid use, Exposure to environmental hazards and toxins etc. negatively influence the sperm production and motility
Both the male and female partner visit the clinic for a thorough medical examination and blood tests. They also consult with an Infertility Specialist. Using the test results, the fertility specialist determines which IVF programme is most appropriate for the couple and explains the treatment process in detail.
The female partner needs to visit on day two or three of her menstrual cycle, when hormonal investigations are done along with an ultrasound. The ovaries are stimulated with medication to promote the growth of follicles containing the eggs; this process can last for eight to 12 days. The response of the ovaries (quantity and quality of follicles recruited) is monitored through ultrasounds and blood investigations at regular intervals.
After eight to 12 days of taking the medicine, an injection (trigger) is given to assist with the final maturation of the egg and loosening of the egg from the follicular wall. The patient must visit the clinic for the egg retrieval process, which takes place 34 to 36 hours after the trigger is given. The retrieval process is a day care procedure that is performed with ultrasound guidance under sedation. Once retrieved, the eggs are processed by an embryologist in the ART laboratory.
On the same day, the male partner provides a fresh semen sample, which is analysed and processed by an embryologist in the ART lab. If required, sperm can be extracted from a testicle or epididymis in a separate procedure.
Different procedures can be used to fertilise the collected eggs. In this step, the sperm that were processed in the previous step are used to fertilise the eggs. Each mature egg receives a single healthy sperm. Sixteen to 18 hours after the eggs receive the sperm, they are checked to see if fertilisation has taken place. An egg that is fertilised is referred to as an embryo; the embryo is then cultured in an incubator for several days.
Based on the quantity, quality and growth of cultured embryos, the embryologist selects the best embryo and an appropriate day for transfer into the uterus of the female partne.
After the embryo transfer, specialists may prescribe medicines to enhance the chances of embryo implantation. After the stipulated period of time, pregnancy tests are conducted to confirm pregnancy.
