In vitro fertilization provides a controlled environment that significantly enhances the opportunity for fertilization of the oocyte, or egg. IVF combines eggs and sperm together in a dish that contains a culture solution that provides nutrients to support the fertilization and development of the egg. "In vitro" is a Latin term that means "in glass." Monitored microscopically, successfully fertilized eggs develop over a three-day period into embryos. Then, our team of embryologists conducts a qualitative assessment of the embryos to determine which embryos will be selected for embryo transfer, cryopreservation, or further culturing and development.

Surgery offers the benefits of the potential for many future pregnancies, and eliminates the risks of increased multiple pregnancy and hyperstimulation reactions associated with IVF medications. IVF offers significantly higher monthly pregnancy rates (fecundability), as well as the possibility of extra embryos that may be cryopreserved for a subsequent pregnancy attempt. The IVF physicians of the Southern California Reproductive Center can fully discuss the merits of each approach within the setting of your case to help you determine the optimal treatment option for you.

IVF is an assisted reproductive technique that is used to treat infertility due to multiple etiologies including tubal disease, male factor, endometriosis, and unexplained causes. The treatment involves stimulation of the ovaries to produce multiple eggs, removal of the eggs by an ultrasound directed needle aspiration, followed by insemination of the eggs in the laboratory. The fertilized eggs, or embryos, are grown in culture for 3-5 days before being transferred into the uterine cavity.

A woman's natural cycle is self-regulated to produce one egg per month. The eggs develop within fluid-filled sacs inside the ovaries, called follicles. The hormone that is
released by the pituitary to stimulate the follicles to grow each month is called follicle stimulating hormone, or FSH. By giving daily injections of medications containing FSH we can increase the blood level of this hormone, causing several feggs to develop to maturity.

There are several different types of medications used to prepare the ovaries for an IVF aspiration. Lupron and Ganirelix are used to prevent the surge of LH in mid-cycle and thereby prevent ovulation. Preparations containing FSH include: Gonal F, Follistim, Bravelle, and Menopur. These medications are used to stimulate multiple follicle growth.

Careful monitoring of the ovaries during treatment is essential for the development of high quality eggs as well as patient safety. Serial ultrasounds and blood tests are used to evaluate the ovarian response and timing of egg recovery. The sizes of the follicles correlate with maturity of the eggs inside. When the eggs reach predicted maturity, an ultrasound guided aspiration procedure is scheduled to harvest the eggs.

The egg retrieval is a simple outpatient surgical procedure that is performed under intravenous anesthesia. A vaginal ultrasound probe is used to guide a needle through the vaginal wall and into the ovary. Once the needle is inside the follicle, suction is used to aspirate the fluid and egg into a test tube. The embryologist then examines the fluid for the presence of an egg. The entire procedure takes approximately twenty minutes to perform.
