IVF Protocol

In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is a procedure in which a woman’s eggs are retrieved before ovulation and fertilized artificially in a laboratory. After fertilization, the embryo is transferred into the uterus. IVF is used to treat both female and male infertility.

Required Examinations:

• Hormonal Testing – To assess reproductive hormone levels.

• Autoimmune Analysis – To identify possible implantation issues and causes of recurrent pregnancy loss.

• General Health Checkup – Pre-anesthesia assessment, urine analysis, and sperm analysis (spermogram).

• HYCOSY (Hysterosalpingo-Contrast Sonography) – To evaluate fallopian tube patency and uterine health.

• Ovarian Stimulation – Medication-induced follicle growth monitoring through folliculometry.

Procedure Steps:

1. Controlled Ovarian Stimulation – Hormonal medications to stimulate egg production.

2. Egg Retrieval – Eggs are collected through a minor surgical procedure.

3. Embryo Cultivation – High-quality embryo growth under optimal laboratory conditions.

4. Additional Techniques (if necessary) – PIXIE, ICSI, Assisted Hatching, Embryo Glue.

5. Embryo Transfer – Selected embryos are placed into the uterus.

6. Luteal Support Therapy – Medications to support implantation before the first HCG test.

Important Notes:

• Patients must visit the clinic on Day 2-3 of the menstrual cycle to begin treatment.

Cost:

5,000,000 – 6,000,000 KRW (Full IVF protocol)
