IVF treatment in Nevşehir

What is IVF (In Vitro Fertilisation / ICSI)?

In vitro fertilisation (IVF) is a treatment in which the ovaries are stimulated with hormone injections, the eggs are collected and fertilised with sperm in the laboratory, and the resulting embryo is placed in the womb. In ICSI, a single sperm is injected directly into each egg. It is used for blocked tubes, low sperm counts, endometriosis, unexplained infertility and when other treatments have not worked.

How is IVF (In Vitro Fertilisation / ICSI) done?

1. Assessment of both partners: ovarian reserve (AMH, ultrasound), sperm analysis, tubes and womb
2. Ovarian stimulation with daily hormone injections (about 10–12 days) and ultrasound monitoring
3. Egg collection under light sedation
4. Fertilisation in the laboratory (IVF or ICSI) and embryo culture
5. Embryo transfer into the womb
6. Pregnancy blood test (beta-hCG) about 12 days later

Who is IVF (In Vitro Fertilisation / ICSI) suitable for?

• Couples with blocked or damaged fallopian tubes

Aftercare: what to watch out for
