INFERTILITY TREATMENTS
In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)
In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is an assisted reproductive technology in which eggs are retrieved from a woman’s ovaries and fertilized with sperm in a laboratory. The resulting embryos are then transferred to the woman’s uterus, where they can implant and develop into a pregnancy. IVF is a common treatment for couples with blocked fallopian tubes, severe male infertility, or unexplained infertility.
Ovulation Induction
Ovulation induction is a fertility treatment that uses medication to stimulate the ovaries to produce and release eggs. It is commonly used in women with irregular ovulation or anovulation (lack of ovulation) to enhance the chances of conception. Medications like Clomiphene Citrate or injectable hormones (gonadotropins) are often prescribed to trigger ovulation and time intercourse or other fertility treatments.
Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)
Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) is a fertility procedure where sperm is directly placed into a woman's uterus during her ovulation period. The goal is to increase the number of sperm reaching the fallopian tubes, improving the chances of fertilization. IUI is often recommended for couples with mild male infertility, unexplained infertility, or cervical mucus issues.
Surgical Management
Surgical management in fertility treatment involves procedures to address physical abnormalities in the reproductive organs, such as blocked fallopian tubes, fibroids, or endometriosis. These surgeries can improve the chances of natural conception or increase the success of assisted reproductive technologies (ART) like IVF. Common surgeries include laparoscopy, hysteroscopy, and myomectomy.
Low Ovarian Reserve
Low ovarian reserve refers to a diminished quantity or quality of a woman’s eggs, typically due to aging or certain medical conditions. Women with low ovarian reserve may have difficulty conceiving naturally and may require fertility treatments like IVF, sometimes with the use of donor eggs. Hormonal tests, such as AMH and FSH, are used to assess ovarian reserve.
IVF with Embryo Donation
IVF with embryo donation is a fertility treatment in which a woman receives an embryo created from donor eggs and sperm, typically from a couple who has completed their family through IVF and donated their remaining embryos. This option is often recommended for women with infertility due to age, poor egg quality, or genetic conditions, allowing them to carry and give birth to a child.
Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI)
ICSI is a specialized form of IVF where a single sperm is injected directly into an egg to achieve fertilization. This technique is commonly used when there are issues with sperm quality, such as low sperm count or poor motility. ICSI significantly increases the chances of fertilization and is often used in cases of male factor infertility or previous IVF failures.
Reproductive Immunology
Reproductive immunology studies the role of the immune system in fertility and pregnancy. In some cases, the immune system may mistakenly attack a developing embryo or interfere with implantation, leading to infertility or recurrent miscarriages. Treatments like immunotherapy or medications that suppress certain immune responses can improve pregnancy outcomes for women with immunological issues.
