IVF treatment or a TEST-TUBE baby, is a process of fertilization where an egg is combined with sperm outside the body, in test tube. The process involves monitoring and stimulating a woman’s ovulatory process, extracting ova, retrieving a sperm sample, and then manually combining an egg and sperm in a laboratory dish. After the fertilized egg undergoes embryo culture for 2–6 days, it is implanted in the same or another woman’s uterus, with the intention of establishing a successful pregnancy.
There are 6 basic steps involved in the IVF treatment process:
Initially, Both the male and female partners need to undergo pre-treatment tests. These tests help assess hormone levels, physical fitness, and fertility health to determine the most suitable treatment options.
Doctors stimulate the ovaries to encourage multiple follicle development. They track the process using ultrasound and blood tests to monitor hormone levels and follicle growth.
Doctors retrieve eggs through a minor surgical procedure under anesthesia. They guide a hollow needle with ultrasound to collect eggs from the ovaries.
Next, The male partner provides a semen sample, which doctors prepare using sperm preparation techniques like swim-up, density gradient, or swim and wash to select the healthiest sperm.
Subsequently, Doctors place the sperm and eggs in a lab dish to allow fertilization. When fertilization chances are low, they use ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) and inject a single sperm into an egg.
Afterward, Doctors transfer fertilized eggs into the uterus using an ET catheter. Most women find the procedure painless, though some may experience mild cramping.
