In Vitro Fertilization as the name implies, is a process wherein the egg and sperm are fertilized outside the woman's body, in a culture dish under controlled laboratoryconditions. After 2-5 days of incubation in specially gassed incubators, the resulting embryo (2 cells – blastocyst) is transferred into the uterine cavity with the hope toimplant and grow into a healthy baby. As stated earlier we use our own media for IVF. In those cases which are indicated for blastocyst transfer or sequential transfer we use commercial media as an additional supplement. The indications for this procedure have already been cited previously. We make sure the couple attends a counseling class prior to this programme in order to understand the basic techniques involved, risks, cost and outcomes. Every patient's treatment and stimulation protocol is individualized since the problems vary from couple to couple.
Kindly look up our success rates to know the monthly variation of results. Once the female partner has been adequately prepared (down regulation of endogenous hormones and stimulated to produce multiple follicles), she is taken up for oocyte (egg) pick up under short acting anesthesia. If there is no risk of hyperstimulation wherein an ovarian enlargement is evident and greater numbers of oocytes are aspirated, the patient can go home the same evening. On the same day as the oocyte pick up the husband's sperms are collected and after pre incubation for 2-3 hours, the oocytes are inseminated with pre-prepared sperms of the husband. The inseminated oocytes are observed 16-18 hours later for the evidence of fertilization.

Infertility is a condition when conception does not take place even after one year of regular, unprotected sexual intercourse. It can affect either the male or female. It can be due to a variety of factors including endocrine disorders, defects in the reproductive systems, deficient production of sperms or eggs, drugs and toxic chemicals, childhood diseases such as mumps, etc. There has been a recent increase in the number of infertility cases reported throughout the world. An estimated 10-15% of the married couple initially have the problem and need evaluation. Approximately 40% of them relate to male, 40% to female and 20% to both.
Infertility is caused due to a multitude of factors both in the male and the female. In the male, a low sperm count or defective spermatozoa is a major factor. Anothercommon factor that contributes to male infertility is the presence of a varicocele, which is a cluster of enlarged veins around the testicle. Varicocele elevates temperature in this part of the body by increasing blood circulation and the higher temperature reduces sperm production. Defects in the male reproductive tract can also be responsible for infertility. Childhood disorders such as mumps may result in permanent damage of the reproductive organs, leading to infertility. The use of certain drugs and toxic chemicals can contribute to infertility.
