Diagnosing Infertility
To reach a diagnosis, your infertility specialist will meet you to review your previous medical records and past medical history. They will also run a number of assessments, and define the required fertility testing.
Hormone Assay
Hormone treatment in women aims to promote egg maturation and trigger ovulation. This increases the likelihood of successful fertilization. The success rates for each treatment cycle can vary greatly depending on the age of
Semen Analysis
Semen analysis is one of the first and sometimes the only test that a male undergoes when the couple's fertility is in question. Of course, the male partner will be questioned and examined to look for probable factors which could affect fertility before any investigations are ordered.
Follicular Study
It involves scanning the ovaries regularly during the menstrual cycle and observing the follicles as they increase in size. It examines the ovarian follicles using a transvaginal scan.
Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)
Intrauterine insemination (IUI)is a procedure for treating infertility. In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is a technology that introduces the female egg (oocyte) and male sperm together in a specialized culture medium where the chances of successful fertilization are greatly enhanced.
In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)
In vitro fertilization (IVF)is a procedure in the treatment of infertility in which mature eggs are collected from the ovaries and fertilized by sperm in a lab. In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF) are a technology that introduces the female egg (oocyte) and male sperm together in a specialized culture medium where the chances of successful fertilization are greatly enhanced.
Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI)
In ICSI, a single sperm is injected into a harvested egg to artificially fertilize the egg.
Intracytoplasmic sperm injection, or ICSI, is a specialized laboratory technique that allows for the injection of a single sperm (spermatozoa) into an egg in order to achieve fertilization.
Blastocyst
Blastocyst culture and day 5 embryo transfer for in vitro fertilization allows selection of the best quality embryos for transfer
Embryo's quality is important with infertility
Assisted Hatching
Assisted hatching is an additional procedure that can be performed in patients who are undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment. Once embryos are created using IVF, the embryo is surrounded by a hard outer layer of cells called the zona pellucida.
Embryoscope
The embryoscope is an IVF incubator with a built-in camera for automated time lapse imaging of fertilized oocytes, in a safe incubator environment from conception to embryo transfer.
Embryo Freezing
Embryo cryopreservation is the process of freezing and storing embryos and is a part of most in vitro fertilization programs. The process is chosen for reasons as varied as providing an additional chance for pregnancy or saving embryos in the phase of certain medical treatments.
Sperm Extraction
Severe male factor infertility often precludes treatment with intrauterine insemination (IUI). When greatly decreased sperm count (severe oligospermia) is diagnosed in the ejaculate, intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is required to achieve fertilization in the laboratory.
