WHO WE ARE
The initial steps for both IVF and ICSI are similar. Both
treatments differ in the insemination methodology post
the egg collection step.
Following the pre-assessment, the next step could either be a long protocol or a short
protocol. The doctor takes a call on what treatment needs to be followed.
Long Protocol
The duration of the treatment is about one month and can be divided into two phases
mainly:
Suppression Phase: The female partner is required to come to the hospital for a daily
subcutaneous injection usually from day 22 of the cycle (day 1 is the first day of the
menstrual period) for about 15 days.
Stimulation Phase: After about 15 days other set of injection/s is/are added which
stimulates the ovaries to produce eggs. These injections are administered by daily
injection subcutaneously (sc) or intramuscularly (im) (into the buttock muscle).The daily
dose may be increased or decreased depending on how well the ovaries are responding.
Stimulation continues until the eggs are mature. This takes approximately 10 – 14 days.
Short Protocol
This usually takes about 15-18 days where injections and medications are administered
to the female partner on an everyday basis. This continues until the eggs are mature.
Note: The timing of events during the IVF process is particularly crucial to the success
of the pregnancies. Patients are asked to attend OASIS for an ultrasound scan of the
ovaries during the treatment cycle which is usually after Day 5.
Egg collection is a day care procedure which requires the patient to get admitted to the
hospital for half a day. She would be evaluated by anesthesiologist a day or two prior to
the egg collection. The eggs collected under vaginal ultrasound guidance are placed in
an incubator. Generally most of the follicles will carry a mature, healthy egg. However,
not all follicles may yield an egg, or some may be immature or deteriorating and are
thus are unlikely to fertilize normally. It’s very rare that no eggs are found. If the
treatment cannot proceed because no eggs can be collected or the egg quality is poor,
the doctor will discuss the probable causes of this with you and recommend an
appropriate course of action.
Embryo Transfer :
The procedure is carried out by insetting a speculum into the vagina and cleaning the
cervix. The patient may feel one cramp as an outer catheter is placed through the
cervix into the lower segment of the uterus. A fine plastic catheter, into which the
Embryologist has transferred the embryos, is then placed through the outer transfer
catheter and advanced near the top of the
uterus. The sonographer will visualize the lining of the uterus and guide the physician
in the placement of the catheter. Once the placement is correct, the embryos will be
expelled from the catheter and inserted into the uterus.

In Vitro Fertilization (IVF):
What is it?
In Vitro Fertilization is an assisted reproductive technology
(ART) commonly referred to as IVF. IVF is the process of
fertilization by extracting eggs, retrieving a sperm sample,
and then manually combining an egg and sperm in a
laboratory dish. The embryo(s) is then transferred to the
uterus. Other forms of ART include gamete intrafallopian
transfer (GIFT) and zygote intrafallopian transfer (ZIFT).

Risks
In vitro fertilization (IVF) increases the risks of
ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome and
multiple pregnancy.
