IVF was the first procedure used to fertilize eggs outside a woman's body. In 1978, the first "test tube baby," was conceived through IVF. Most assisted reproductivetechnologies (ART) are derived from the IVF procedure.

The same hormones that stimulate one egg to be produced each cycle are given to the woman in higher doses to produce multiple eggs in the ovary. These medications are given at home by the woman herself, much the same way a diabetic gives herself insulin injections.

During this stimulation process which takes about 10 days, the woman is seen in the office 4-5 times for vaginal ultrasound assessment of follicle (egg) growth and blood estrogen determination. These visits tell the doctor how many eggs are being stimulated and when they are ready to be retrieved. A minimum number of follicles must develop to make the retrieval worthwhile. Cancellation or postponement of the cycle may occur if there are too few or too many follicles noted on ultrasound.

Egg retrieval is performed while the woman is asleep under sedation provided by Nurse Anesthetists. The doctor inserts a needle through the vagina into the ovaries and into each follicle using ultrasound guidance. The follicle fluid containing the egg from the follicle is aspirated into test tubes and given to the embryologist for identification. Each egg is then placed in an incubator where it will be placed with sperm a few hours after the retrieval. The number of eggs retrieved can range from 0 (rarely) to 30 (rarely) depending on the age of the woman and her ovarian sensitivity.

The egg retrieval takes approximately 20 minutes, and the woman then recovers in the recovery room until she is ready to return home for a day of rest on the day of egg retrieval.

Treatment with In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) involves several steps 1) the development of follicles (pockets of fluid that contain the eggs) in the woman’s ovaries- referred to as “ovarian stimulation” 2) the removal of eggs (oocytes) from her ovaries- referred to as “egg or oocyte retrieval” 3) The patient’s partner, if applicable, will typically be required to collect a semen sample on the day of oocyte retrieval. Exceptions to this include those patients using donor sperm, those utilizing a previously frozen semen sample or those having surgical retrieval of tissue or sperm extraction. 4) the fertilization of the eggs in the laboratory- referred to as “fertilization of oocytes” 5) transfer of embryos (fertilized eggs) into the (a) woman’s uterus- referred to as “embryo transfer. Patients are not guaranteed success at any or all of these steps. If adequate results are not achieved at any step, the cycle may be cancelled at the discretion of an RMIA physician.

Preimplantation Genetic Screening (PGS) or Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) is a process of screening early embryos during the in vitro process. The oocytes are retrieved, fertilized using ICSI, and after three days of growth, biopsied to obtain genetic material needed to screen the embryos. After this biopsy occurs, the embryos are kept in the laboratory while the material is being screened for a diagnosis. For information on disorders, screening, and/or candidacy for this procedure, please contact our office.

In the case of IVF with “Donor Egg” (or Oocyte), medications will be used to coordinate the recipient patient’s cycle with the cycle of the egg donor. If pregnancy occurs, the recipient patient will need to continue taking these medications through the first trimester of pregnancy.

Following retrieval, the donor eggs and recipient partner’s sperm (or donor sperm) will be processed in the laboratory to accomplish fertilization. Several days later, the
fertilized eggs, will be transferred to the uterus of the recipient.

Embryo freezing/cryopreservation is a process where embryos (fertilized eggs) of suitable quality are frozen in small vials using liquid nitrogen and specialized equipment. The embryos can then potentially be thawed and transferred to the uterus at a future date. The major benefit of embryo cryopreservation is to have suitable embryos available for transfer without having to incur the costs and time commitment associated with a fresh IVF cycle. In some cases, there may be enough embryos that are cryopreserved to allow for several frozen embryo transfer attempts. The main risk associated with embryo cryopreservation is failure of the embryos to survive the freezing and thawing process.

Midwest Center for Reproductive Health

Thank you for your interest in the Vested Interest Program (VIP) Refund Plan offered by The Midwest Center for Reproductive Health. Our program limits the amount of
money at stake for the comprehensive treatment plan and provides a 90% refund should IVF treatment prove unsuccessful.

In vitro fertilization is a very successful treatment option for infertility but, like most infertility therapies, more than one treatment may be required before a pregnancy is
achieved. Naturally, many couples are anxious about the costs without the guarantee of a successful outcome. The Vested Interest Program was created to give our patients every opportunity to succeed with IVF without the financial risk that normally accompanies multiple treatments. You will have peace of mind during treatment knowing that the costs are fixed and you are free to pursue the treatment you need to help you have a baby.

This program enables you to undergo IVF treatment without having to worry about the uncertainty associated with the cost of multiple cycles. In fact, couples who are willing to proceed with multiple IVF cycles have a much better chance of success. For a fixed and discounted fee, you have up to three fresh IVF cycles to overcome infertility. Should you have frozen embryos, you have the option of completing additional frozen embryo cycles. If treatment isn't successful you'll receive a 90% refund, leaving your resources intact to pursue other family building options.

After your visit here, we would encourage you to also take a look at our success rates section to learn more about the world-class pregnancy rates produced in our IVF program.we strive to make the process of initiating infertility treatment as simple and stress-free as possible. Before your first appointment, you will need to complete a few new patient forms. During your initial consultation, the doctor will review your history, answer any questions you may have and form a preliminary plan for testing, diagnosis and treatment.
