2 of 5
IVF stands for In vitro fertilization. It is the most common and most efficient type of assisted reproductive technology. The sole objective of the IVF procedure is to achieve fusing of the egg and the sperm outside the womb via artificial means. The procedure is utilized by women who have problem conceiving or have fertilization issues. In case an individual wants to succeed in this task, it is indeed a little complex procedure which calls forth a lot of patience and perseverance but is effective.
The first step of the IVF procedure involves ovarian stimulation
3 of 5
The first phase of the IVF process which involves ovarian stimulation commences on the third day of menstruation. The medicines which are given to the female parent at this stage are meant to trigger the growth of multiple follicles in the ovaries. This is done in a bid to make the ovaries produce more than one egg. Post the injection of medicines, constant monitoring on the growth of ovarian follicles is performed with the help of gynecologic ultrasonography. During this session, the mother might feel slightly nauseating, or hormones can take a slight toll so one can keep some aromatic oil or mints to overcome the feeling.
What ideal notion does IVF promote?
4 of 5
In this process, the inactive cells around the egg and the semen are separated from the sperm to promote proper fusion of the egg and the sperm. The fusion takes place in an incubated environment where the two are kept together subjected to a certain temperature, heat, and light. The process of fusion of the two cells can also take up to 18 hours. In certain cases, where the individual is reported to have a lower sperm count, the sperm is directly injected into the egg without waiting for it to fuse on its own. The ratio of the egg and the sperm is 1: 75000.
The fused egg is placed back in the mother's uterus after 6-8 level of cell development
5 of 5
Once the fused egg has reached to the 6-8 level of cell development, it is placed back in the mother's uterus. The IVF procedure is not as easy as it seems to be. Moreover, there are several conditions which must be fulfilled before an egg can qualify to be fused. Factors like evenness of growth and level of fragmentation are some of the chief factors which are taken into consideration while selecting the right egg. Diabetic people should take care of their blood glucose level, and fitness regime as high blood sugar prevents fusion.
