IVF with own eggs

In vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment with the woman’s own eggs is the most commonly used method of assisted reproduction, where the egg is fertilized by sperm under the careful supervision of embryologists in a laboratory.

What is IVF?

In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a modern method that helps couples on their journey to parenthood. It involves fertilizing an egg with sperm in a laboratory setting, outside of the woman’s body. This allows us to select the highest-quality embryo, thus increasing the chances of a successful pregnancy.

The entire process begins with a carefully managed hormonal stimulation to prepare your body for egg retrieval. The eggs are then fertilized in our specialized embryology laboratory, where we monitor their development. Afterward, we select the most suitable embryo and transfer it into the uterus. Any remaining high-quality embryos can be frozen, giving you the option for a potential future attempt.

You will go through each step with the support of our experts, using the most advanced and globally proven methods. Our goal is to make your journey to your dream baby as safe and as short as possible. We are here to help turn your dream of having a child into a reality.

What to expect before starting IVF treatment?

In order to recommend the best possible treatment for you, we will prepare a personalized diagnosis. Before starting the IVF procedure, it is important to conduct several tests for both you and your partner. The basic tests include:
 

  • Ovarian reserve testing: This blood test will show how your ovaries are likely to respond to stimulation medications.
  • Uterine examination: We will check if the uterus is healthy and ready to accept the embryo.


 

  • Semen analysis: We will examine the quality and quantity of the sperm to select the most suitable fertilization method. In our laboratories, we follow the strict criteria of the World Health Organization (WHO) when conducting the semen analysis. This means that some procedures are repeated for greater accuracy, sperm are stained to detect irregularities in their shape, and additional methods are used. As a result, the examination takes slightly longer than elsewhere, but it is highly accurate, and patients do not waste time with the wrong type of treatment.
     

At Reprofit, we approach diagnosis as a step-by-step process aimed at finding the optimal solution for each couple. We focus only on what you truly need to get pregnant – nothing more, nothing less. Any additional tests depend on your medical history.

We know that deciding to undergo IVF is a big step, and we are happy to explain everything in detail. If you have any questions or need more information, don't hesitate to reach out to us – we are here for you.

How much does IVF treatment cost?

We approach each patient with the utmost care, always considering their current situation and health condition. This individualized approach helps us achieve high treatment success rates.

The cost of treatment varies depending on the specific treatment plan and the laboratory methods used. After the initial consultation and examination, the doctor will recommend the most suitable approach to increase your chances of a successful pregnancy.

IVF treatment with your own eggs is suitable for couples who have been unable to conceive for more than a year (for women under 35) or more than half a year (for women over 35) without an obvious cause. It is also recommended in cases where a geneticist suggests genetic testing of embryos, or if the woman suffers from fallopian tube obstruction, pelvic adhesions or endometriosis. IVF can also be a solution for women with ovulation disorders where treatment with ovulation drugs has failed, or for couples where the man has a poor spermiogram.


 

Treatment involves several steps and the level of discomfort may vary from patient to patient:
- Hormonal stimulation: may cause mild side effects such as bloating, mood changes or breast tenderness.
- Egg retrieval: this procedure is performed under anaesthesia, so you won't feel any pain during the procedure. After the procedure, you may experience a condition like heavy menstruation, which usually goes away within a few days.
- Embryo transfer: it is quick and usually painless. Your partner, who can be present during the procedure, can also give you a sense of peace and security.
- Luteal phase support: hormonal drugs may cause mild discomfort, such as tenderness when injecting.


 

IVF can have side effects and risks that include:
- mild risks: bloating, breast tenderness, light bleeding or cramps.
