IVF with ICSI - North Cyprus IVF

IVF which is the common term for In Vitro Fertilization, is the process of creating an embryo using the egg and sperm in a laboratory environment. Once the embryos have been formed, the embryo transfer is physically placed in the uterus.

Here is the step by step process of the procedure:

Before embarking on the IVF procedure, we ask that you have some initial hormone test results for evaluation. These tests are FSH, LH, E2 and Prolactin and are normally done between day 2-4 of the menstrual cycle.  An alternative test would be the AMH which can be done on any day of the cycle.

Once you are considered a qualified candidate, the process can begin.

The first step is to begin with the ovulation induction with the assistance of fertility medications to control the timing and mutliple growth of the egg. The medication regimen will depend on each individual case and will be prescribed accordingly.

In order to shorten the stay in Cyprus, we monitor your medication intake to ensure good development of the follicles. Beginning the medication protocol in your home country will help keep you visit in Cyprus to 6-7 nights.

Egg retrieval is done upon arrival in Cyprus with the assistance of ultrasound imaging that guides the hollow needle through the pelvic cavity. In order to increase your comfort, light sedation and local anesthesia are used during this process. The eggs are removed by follicular aspiration.

At the same time that the eggs are collected, the sperm is also collected from the male partner. This is generally done via ejaculation but if there are any problems with it there are procedures that can be used to extract the sperm manually.

Insemination is the name of the process where the eggs and sperm are placed in incubators for the fertiliztion to occur. Most times however, ICSI (intracytoplasmic sperm injection) is used for greater accuracy of fertilization.

The fertilized eggs are then monitored for 3 days until they have grown enough for the embryo transfer.

During the final stage of the process which is the embryo transfer, a speculum is inserted into the vagina in order to expose the cervix. 2-3 embryos are then suspended in fluid and gently placed in the womb through a catheter. This process is also guided by ultrasound in order to confirm accuracy of embryo placement. 10-12 days after the embryo transfer the patient is asked to undergo a blood test in order to find out if the fertilization process was successful.
