While the majority do survive, some embryos simply do not survive the process, despite our best efforts to select the highest quality. This is a rare occurrence, but it does occur and is a risk of cryopreservation.

Good quality embryos can be frozen during IVF or ICSI procedures where only one embryo is transferred (the medical term is 'cryostorage'). Cryopreserved frozen embryos can then be used later if treatment fails or if you want to have more children.

We assess the embryo's potential viability at the time of freezing. We can decide by looking at the embryos' structures and important elements, such as size, that may affect survival during the freezing process.

You have already proven in your medical history that you are able to successfully deliver a healthy baby and bring a pregnancy to term. You would be eligible to participate in the screening procedure for egg donors.

Certainly. Egg donation is done before the oocytes are released so it doesn’t matter if you have your tubes tied or not.

Yes. Your eggs will be removed vaginally, preventing the need for abdominal surgery. You will be given sedation or a light anaesthetic throughout this treatment. The retrieval process is typically completed in 15-20 minutes.

These days, endometriosis is a female reproductive health problem that is highly prevalent. It is a disorder in which tissue that resembles endometrium begins to grow outside of the uterus.

Endometriosis typically manifests as irregular and heavy periods, infertility, painful sex, cramping during sex, etc.

It contributes to health problems like menstruation pain. The majority of women also endure deteriorating circumstances throughout time, which can lead to infertility issues.

According to research, at least 10% of women are infertile, and as women get older, their chances of becoming infertile rise.

Infertility doesn't affect health in any way. However, its stigma can have an emotional and psychological impact on a woman, which can further cause unrest, hopelessness, and guilt. So, if you're going through this, see a gynaecologist right away.

There are many factors that can alter a woman's capacity to conceive. These consist of:

• Age
• Smoking
• Abuse of alcohol
• Stress
• bad diet
• Having an unhealthy weight
• sexually transmissible diseases (STIs)

The advantages of hysteroscopy are as follows:

• to find endometriosis, fibroids, or polyps as the source of abnormal bleeding.
• to find uterine myomas, which cause painful and irregular bleeding in the uterus.
• There is little pain because there is no abdominal wound.

The hysteroscopy procedure is quick. To ease the minor discomfort, most patients require postoperative medications. For two weeks, a patient shouldn't insert anything, not even tampons, into the vagina. Due to some bleeding and soreness in the uterus area after hysteroscopy, the patient may have to take some time off work. This symptom only lasts for two to five days.

Some patients who have this surgery find it challenging to fall asleep right away. This is due to the fact that they are still experiencing some discomfort, pain, and soreness in their pelvic area. If a breathing tube was used during the general anaesthesia, there may be some throat scratching, vaginal bleeding, uterine cramping, etc. It may be best if you take prescription medications or ask your doctor for something to help with pain management if you are having trouble falling asleep after surgery.

ICSI stands for Intra cytoplasmic sperm injection. It is a form of ART where the sperm is directly injected into the ovum to help in the process of fertilization.

ICSI is recommended to the couple if abnormal semen analysis is diagnosed. If you have a low sperm count, unexplained infertility, or less sperm mobility, you can go for ICSI.

In, Intra-uterine insemination the sperms are directly inseminated/injected into the uterus, increasing the chances of pregnancy.

IVF is a series of procedures like egg retrieval, egg stimulation, fertilisation and more. Whereas in IUI, the sperm is injected into the uterus. IUI is less invasive and less expensive than IVF.

IUI is recommended by doctors when one experiences unexplained infertility issues or the sperm count and mobility are relatively low. As sperm will be inseminated directly into the uterus, it decreases the taken by sperm to travel to the egg, increasing the chances of pregnancy.

In-Vitro Fertilization is a form of ART. Here, the egg and sperm from the donor/couple are taken and fertilised outside the body in test tubes and then implanted into the uterus.

The process of IVF includes five main steps: stimulation of ovaries, retrieval of eggs, fertilisation of eggs, embryo transfer day and a pregnancy test.

Many things play an influential role in choosing whether IVF is right for you or not:

• Severe male infertility
• Blocked fallopian tube
• Irregular period cycle/ PCODs and many others.

Talk to your doctor immediately if you develop a fever, intense discomfort, bleeding, or urinary issues following your surgery.

Using small incisions, laparoscopy is a technique for performing medical procedures.

Sperms are collected through masturbation and collecting semen in a clean dish. However, sometimes, if the sperm count is low then they are taken directly from the epididymis through surgery.

Erectile dysfunction is the inability to achieve an erection strong enough to allow for satisfying sexual activity for both partners. Erectile dysfunction can range in severity from having no erection at all to having a half erection that is insufficient to penetrate your partner or disappears quickly after you do.

Premature ejaculation occurs when a man ejects seminal fluid during intercourse too soon to please his partner or oneself. The disease is more prevalent in the first stages of a relationship and is frequently linked to worry or excessive stimulation. Even though premature ejaculation often goes away on its own, it sometimes needs medical treatment.

A semen analysis is a fundamental investigation of a sperm sample taken during ejaculation that aids in determining a man's reproductive potential. It evaluates sperm quality in accordance with benchmarks set by the WHO in 2021.

A sperm analysis test involves collecting and testing a man's sperm in a lab. This is done to test and evaluate sperm volume and quality. The sperm analysis test determines and detects male fertility issues.

One of the most common causes of male infertility is a low sperm count or sperm quality. The doctor may advise the concerned male on medicines, surgeries, and/or therapies based on the sperm quality, volume, and movement.

A couple who is unable to conceive a live birth even after having well-timed and unprotected sexual activity is said to be infertile. Only by a thorough diagnostic can the causes of this medical problem be determined.

In-Vitro fertility treatment is often known as the "test tube baby procedure." A child that's been conceived outside of a woman's body is known as a "test tube baby.” In this procedure, a man's sperm is used to process a woman's egg in a lab until an embryo develops. The embryo enters the womb through the vagina, and if any of the embryos adhere to the womb's lining, you can become pregnant successfully with the "test-tube baby procedure."

A test tube baby's success is dependent on a woman's physiology, and the success rate with this procedure is only about 37.6% if the woman is under 35. The outcome of this procedure is also influenced by other variables, such as infertility, age, egg and sperm quality, etc.

A scan helps to: Evaluate the unborn child's growth, Check to see if the mother is carrying more than one child, Find the baby's heartbeat during pregnancy, Measure the infant's size and more.

Sonography is generally safe to use during pregnancy. The transducer pressure, however, can be a little uncomfortable or painful if someone has had any prior lower abdominal problems or injuries.
