Premature Ovarian Failure (POF)
Sometimes referred to as "premature menopause", is a loss of ovarian function in
women under 40 years of age. Periods stop, estrogen is low, and the
follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) level is elevated. Some women may experience
premature ovarian failure because of adrenal, pituitary, or thyroid
deficiencies. Radiation therapy and anti-cancer agents may achieve a cancer cure
at the cost of Fertility by causing premature ovarian failure. Women with
Turner's Syndrome, a rare genetic disorder, do not develop functional ovaries at
all.
Endometriosis
Endometriosis, is believed to be quite common. It is estimated that between 25%
and 50% of women with Infertility have endometriosis. This disorder develops
when
fragments of the endometrial lining are implanted in other areas of the pelvis.
These endometrial, or misplaced tissue implants will still respond to a woman's
monthly
hormonal cycle, causing pain and discomfort, slowly increasing in number and
size with each menstrual cycle and eventually causing scarring and inflammation.
Endometrial implants in the ovaries or fallopian tubes are particularly likely
to cause infertility, even if the endometriosis is mild.

First, you take medications to make multiple follicles begin to develop on your
ovaries. This step is referred to as ovarian stimulation, or superovulation.
Step two involves monitoring follicular growth by ultrasound, to determine egg
growth and uterine lining development. When it is determined that the follicles
and the uterine lining are appropriately mature, a trigger shot of Human
Chorionic Gonadotropin is then administered. 36 hours after the trigger shot,
the third step begins with retrieval of the eggs by ultrasound-guided-needle
aspiration, an in-office procedure. A sperm specimen is then washed and prepared
for insemination. The washed sperm is then placed in a dish with the eggs, and
they are placed in an incubator for 18 hours. After 18 hours, the embryos are
observed for normal fertilization, under a microscope, where the pronucleus of
egg and sperm can be seen.
