Many families have walked this path and found joy on the other side. At SurroCare Wellness, a trusted IVF and surrogacy clinic in Mumbai, we understand the emotions, challenges, and hopes that come with fertility treatments. This comprehensive guide is here to support you every step of the way, from your initial consultation to the joyous moment of welcoming your little one.
Understanding IVF Treatment
Imagine holding your newborn baby for the first time—a moment filled with indescribable joy and love. In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is a remarkable assisted reproductive technology that helps countless families like yours achieve this dream. IVF involves combining eggs and sperm outside the body in a laboratory, creating embryos that are then transferred to the uterus, offering hope to those facing infertility challenges.
Why Choose IVF?
- Overcoming Infertility: Whether it's due to blocked fallopian tubes, low sperm count, endometriosis, or unexplained infertility, IVF can be a beacon of hope.
- Genetic Health: Preimplantation genetic testing during IVF can identify genetic disorders, ensuring a healthier start for your child.
- Diverse Families: IVF provides options for same-sex couples and single parents, embracing the beautiful diversity of modern families.
The IVF Journey: Step-by-Step
Ovulation Induction
Think of ovulation induction as preparing the garden for a beautiful bloom. Ovulation induction involves administering fertility medications to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs. This increases the chances of retrieving viable eggs for fertilization.
Egg Retrieval
Retrieving eggs is a delicate and crucial step. A minor surgical procedure, egg retrieval, is performed using ultrasound guidance. Our skilled team ensures this process is as comfortable and safe as possible, gently extracting eggs from the ovaries.
Sperm Collection and Fertilization
On the day of egg retrieval, a sperm sample is collected from the male partner or a sperm donor. The highest quality sperm are selected and combined with the retrieved eggs in our state-of-the-art laboratory. In cases of severe male infertility, Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) may be used to enhance fertilization success.
Embryo Culture and Selection
As the fertilized eggs develop into embryos, we closely monitor their growth and quality. Selecting the healthiest embryos is key to a successful pregnancy. Any remaining viable embryos can be frozen for future use, offering flexibility and additional opportunities for building your family.
Embryo Transfer
The final step is transferring the selected embryo(s) into the uterus. This simple, relatively painless procedure is performed using a thin catheter. We understand the anticipation and excitement you feel during this stage, and our team is here to support you every step of the way
