It is an IVF approach that focuses on retrieving a limited number of eggs during a treatment cycle. Instead of aiming for the development of a large number of follicles, the method emphasizes making use of the eggs that can result from a gentler stimulation of the ovaries. After retrieval, the eggs are fertilized in the laboratory, and the embryos...
MOREPreimplantation genetic testing of embryos is a specialized test performed on embryos created through in vitro fertilization. With this method, the genetic material of the embryos is examined before embryo transfer in order to detect possible chromosomal or genetic abnormalities. The procedure involves taking a small number of cells from the embryo...
MOREIVF with donor eggs is a form of in vitro fertilization in which eggs from a healthy donor are used. The eggs are fertilized in the laboratory with the partner’s sperm or donor sperm, and the resulting embryos are transferred to the uterus of the woman who will carry the pregnancy. The woman receiving the embryos does not provide her own eggs, but...
MOREIn vitro fertilization (IVF) is an assisted reproduction method in which eggs are collected from a woman’s ovaries and fertilized in the laboratory with sperm. After fertilization, the embryos are cultured for a few days and then one or more are transferred to the uterus, with the goal of implantation and pregnancy. Depending on the characteristics...
MORENatural cycle in vitro fertilization is a form of IVF performed without ovarian stimulation medication. Instead of stimulating the ovaries to produce multiple eggs, it uses the egg that naturally matures during the woman’s cycle. With this method, the naturally selected egg of the cycle is retrieved and fertilized in the laboratory, as in conventio...
MOREAs an assisted reproduction treatment, intrauterine insemination aims to improve the conditions for fertilization to occur within the female reproductive system. The method is based on placing selected sperm cells closer to the site where fertilization may occur, in order to increase the chances of meeting the egg. Unlike other assisted reproductio...
MOREOvulation induction is a treatment method used to help women who do not ovulate regularly or do not ovulate in every cycle. The aim of the treatment is to stimulate the ovaries so that a mature egg develops and is released. This method is based on the use of medication that affects the hormonal mechanisms of the cycle, enhancing the development of...
MOREA surrogate mother is a woman who agrees to carry and give birth to a child on behalf of other parents when the biological mother is unable to carry the pregnancy herself. In surrogacy, the embryo is created through in vitro fertilization using the genetic material of the intended parents or egg or sperm donors. The embryo is then transferred to th...
