IVF referred as In Vitro Fertilization, it is one assisted
reproductive technology (ART) which in layman's term called as Test Tube Baby in Chandigarh because all those events towards creation of human life
which happens inside the body are carried out artificially outside the body in
embryology lab.
IVF is the procedure of reproduction by manually merging an egg
and sperm in a laboratory bowl, and then moving the embryo to the uterus.
Why IVF is used?
1. Congested or injured fallopian tubes (Tubal
factor)
2. Male infertility due to less semen count or
semen motility (Male factor)
3. Women who have ovulation complaints, premature
ovarian failure, uterine fibroids (Female factor)
4. Women who don't have fallopian tubes due to some
problems.
5. Individuals with a genomic disorder (Genetic
factor)
6. Unsolved infertility (unexplained)
Fundamental steps in the IVF and embryo transfer
process at Test Tube Baby Hospital in Chandigarh:
1. Observe and stimulate the growth of healthy
egg(s) in the ovaries.
2. Accumulate the eggs.
3. Protecting the sperm.
4. Unite the eggs and sperm together in the
embryology laboratory and offer the appropriate atmosphere for reproduction and
early embryo growth.
5. Move the embryos into the uterus.
Observe
and stimulate the growth of healthy egg(s) in the ovaries:
To stimulate egg production Fertility medicines are recommended by
Best Hospital for Test Tube Baby in Chandigarh. Many eggs are preferred
why because some eggs will not grow or fertilize after retrieval. Some
Transvaginal ultrasound is used to observe the ovaries, and blood test samples
are taken to check hormone levels.
Accumulate
the eggs:
By using minor surgical procedure eggs are retrieved, ultrasound
imaging is used to guide a hollow needle through the lumbar cavity to take away
the eggs. Medicine is provided to decrease and eliminate potential distress.
Protecting
the sperm:
The sperm is protected, which is prepared for combining with the
eggs.
Unite the
eggs and sperm:
Sperm and eggs are combined together and stored in a laboratory to
encourage fertilization this process called as insemination. In some cases
intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) may be used. In this process, single
sperm is inserted directly into the egg in an attempt to accomplish
fertilization. The eggs are observed to check that fertilization and cell
divisions are taking place which is a sign of life and growth of the embryos
which is the smallest form of the baby. Once this happens, the inseminated eggs
are considered as embryos.
Embryos
into the uterus:
After Egg retrieval and fertilization embryos are usually
transferred into the woman's uterus. A tube is injected into the uterus to move
(transfer) the embryos. This procedure is unproblematic for women. After this
procedure, establishment naturally happens around six to ten days succeeding
egg retrieval.
