Preparing for In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF) at Medical Art Center
At Medical Art Center, we carefully guide you through every stage of your IVF journey. Once you decide to proceed, our experienced physicians evaluate your case, recommend the most suitable treatment, and schedule your procedure. Meanwhile, our dedicated nurses clearly explain pre-operative instructions, medications, and required paperwork so that you feel confident and informed from the start.
Medications
Your doctor reviews each medication, explains its specific purpose, and demonstrates how to administer it properly. In addition, we provide all necessary medications as part of your treatment plan to reduce stress and confusion. Because following instructions precisely increases your success rate, we ensure you understand every step. Furthermore, our nurses remain available to answer any questions during your cycle.
Financial Policy
We require payment before your procedure begins. However, our accounts team can discuss flexible payment options that best fit your financial situation. Moreover, we collaborate with reliable financial institutions to help patients access loans for IVF treatment when necessary. As a result, our approach ensures that financial limitations do not delay your fertility journey.
The IVF Process
The IVF journey typically lasts 4–8 weeks, from registration to embryo transfer. During this period, you’ll go through five important steps:
Step 1 – Ovary Stimulation:
Fertility medications stimulate your ovaries to produce multiple eggs. Since not all eggs mature or fertilize, multiple eggs improve your overall chances of success. Therefore, we closely monitor your ovaries using transvaginal ultrasound and adjust your medications as needed to ensure proper timing for egg collection.
Step 2 – Egg Collection:
Doctors collect eggs using a short surgical procedure guided by ultrasound. The procedure lasts 10–20 minutes and requires minimal recovery time. Afterward, you can rest briefly before heading home.
Step 3 – Sperm Collection:
The male partner provides a fresh semen sample, which we prepare immediately for insemination. Alternatively, we can use frozen sperm if provided earlier. Consequently, the fertilization process begins without delay.
Step 4 – Insemination:
We combine eggs and sperm in an incubator to promote fertilization. However, if the likelihood of fertilization is low, we use intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), inserting a single sperm directly into an egg. In fact, this technique often boosts success rates significantly. Meanwhile, our embryologists observe the eggs carefully to confirm cell division and healthy embryo growth.
Step 5 – Embryo Transfer:
Doctors transfer embryos into the uterus three to five days after fertilization. Using ultrasound guidance, they gently place embryos through a soft catheter. Most women feel minimal discomfort, and the procedure usually takes about five minutes. Finally, you can relax for a short while before going home.
After IVF
You should rest after embryo transfer, but most women resume regular activities the next day. Generally, implantation happens 6–10 days after egg retrieval. To increase success, avoid excessive stress and heavy exercise. Moreover, your doctor will schedule a pregnancy blood test about 12 days after transfer to confirm results.
Management of Associated Conditions
Obesity and unhealthy lifestyle habits often affect fertility by disrupting hormones, ovulation, and sperm quality. Therefore, we encourage lifestyle modifications to enhance your IVF outcome. For this reason, many patients join our sister clinic, Mart-Life Detox Clinic, which offers specialized Mayr-type detox programs. These programs have been shown to improve sperm count, egg quality, and reproductive health before ART treatment.
Treatment of Female Reproductive Conditions
We manage several female reproductive issues, including endometrioma, adenomyoma, polyps, fibroids, hydrosalpinx, and polycystic ovarian syndrome. In addition, we support women who have experienced repeated IVF failures. When such patients complete a Mayr detox program, their success rates often improve remarkably in subsequent IVF cycles.
In fact, our research—presented at the International Federation of Fertility Societies Conference in India (2016)—demonstrated that combining detox programs with ART treatments leads to better overall outcomes.
Delivery of Babies
Our Obstetrics and Gynecology unit ensures safe delivery from conception to the first 1,000 days of your baby’s life. Moreover, we provide comprehensive care for both mother and child, supporting every stage of development and well-being. Consequently, families who choose Medical Art Center enjoy consistent, compassionate, and professional care throughout the entire journey.
