What is IVF Treatment​?

IVF Treatment is one of the most effective fertility solutions available today for those who are unable to conceive through natural methods. Short for In Vitro Fertilization, IVF is a process where eggs and sperm are brought together outside the body and allowed to fertilise under expert supervision. Once a healthy embryo develops, it is placed into the uterus to begin a potential pregnancy. IVF is recommended in situations such as damaged fallopian tubes, endometriosis, hormonal problems, low sperm count, or infertility that has no clear cause. With advancements in technology, IVF can now be highly personalised through controlled stimulation, embryo selection, genetic screening, and freezing techniques. This makes it suitable for diverse families, including those using donor eggs, donor sperm, or surrogacy.

What Are the Challenges We Address For IVF?

IVF can feel overwhelming especially when couples face medical, emotional, or financial challenges along the way. At Ayaansh, we focus on understanding these barriers early and guiding patients with clarity, comfort, and expert-led solutions. Our approach is designed to simplify the journey and support you at every stage. The challenges we address are : 

 

Difficulty Producing Quality Eggs : Some patients struggle with egg quality or quantity due to age or hormonal factors. We create personalised stimulation plans to improve ovarian response and help develop healthier eggs.

Difficulty With Fertilisation : Eggs and sperm may not fertilise easily, even when both seem normal. Our advanced lab techniques help improve fertilisation and embryo formation.

Unexplained Infertility : Sometimes infertility persists even when all basic tests appear normal. We perform deeper evaluations to identify hidden issues and design targeted treatments for better outcomes.

Emotional & Mental Pressures : The IVF journey can bring anxiety, uncertainty, and emotional strain. Our counselling and support services help patients manage stress and feel more confident throughout treatment.

Multiple Failed Attempts : Repeated IVF failures often require a fresh perspective and deeper analysis. We provide second-opinion expertise and customised protocols to improve the chances of success in the next cycle.

Medical Conditions Like PCOS or Endometriosis : Conditions like PCOS and endometriosis can affect egg development, fertilisation, and implantation. We offer specialised treatment plans that support hormonal balance and enhance IVF success.

Lifestyle Challenges : Daily habits, stress levels, and nutrition can influence fertility outcomes. We guide patients on healthy lifestyle changes that improve overall well-being and support better treatment results.

  • Comprehensive fertility evaluation for both partners.
  • Hormone testing and ultrasound scans to check egg reserve, sperm health, and overall readiness.
  • Semen analysis and lifestyle guidance for better results.
  • Discussion of treatment plan, medication schedule, and timelines.
  • Daily hormone injections to stimulate the ovaries.
  • Monitoring scans to track egg growth.
  • Egg retrieval procedure and collection of sperm samples.
  • Laboratory fertilization and embryo culture for 3–5 days.
  • Embryo transfer using a simple, painless procedure.
  • Medications to support the uterus and help implantation.
  • Pregnancy blood test after 12–14 days.
  • Next-step counselling based on the outcome.

What Are The 5 Stages of IVF?

How Long Is The Process Of IVF?

  • The IVF process usually takes about 4 to 6 weeks from the start of medications to the pregnancy test. It begins with a short pre-treatment phase where the doctor reviews your reports and prepares a plan. 
  • Once the cycle begins, the ovaries are stimulated with medicines for around 10 to 12 days. During this time, you will have a few ultrasound scans to check egg growth. 
  • When the eggs are ready, the egg retrieval procedure is done, which usually takes less than 30 minutes. The collected eggs are then fertilised with sperm in the lab. 
  • Over the next 3 to 5 days, the embryos grow and are monitored by embryologists. Depending on the plan, a fresh embryo transfer is done within this same cycle, or embryos may be frozen for transfer in a later cycle. 
  • After the transfer, there is a two-week waiting period before taking a pregnancy test. 
  • Overall, the timeline can vary slightly based on how your body responds and whether a fresh or frozen transfer is chosen. But in most cases, one full IVF cycle takes a few weeks from start to finish.

Is IVF treatment painful?

IVF is generally not painful, though some steps may cause mild discomfort. Most procedures, like egg retrieval, are done with sedation to keep you comfortable.

What is the success rate of IVF?

Success depends on factors like age, egg and sperm quality, medical conditions, and treatment history. Ayaansh provides personalised success expectations after your evaluation.

A healthy diet, regular light exercise, and good sleep can support your treatment. Avoid smoking, reduce alcohol, and manage stress for better outcomes.
