Egg Freezing in North Cyprus

An egg freezing cycle is very much like an IVF cycle where your ovaries are stimulated through the use of medication in order to obtain multiple good quality eggs. In an IVF cycle, the process does not stop here and continues until successful transfer of embryos into the uterus, where an egg freezing cycle does not aim that. The aim in an egg freezing cycle is to obtain as many good quality eggs as we possibly can, and freeze those eggs at our facilities for use at a future point in time. Given that we will be aiming for an optimal count and quality of eggs during this procedure, we will need plan your treatment very carefully so that the outcome pleases us all.

The first step in planning your treatment is to determine what type of a medication regimen will be in order so that we can optimize our results. To do so, we will need you to undergo a number of hormone tests so that we can make an assessment of your ovarian reserves and egg quality and proceed accordingly. The tests are administered on day 2 or day 3 of your menstrual period and are as follows:

- A base line pelvic scan (This is a simple ultrasound scan)

Blood tests:
- FSH
- LH
- Estradiol
- Prolactine
- TSH
- AMH (Anti-Mullerian Hormone) test.

Based on these results, we will be able to identify the right medication protocol and prepare you for the procedure.

La cryoconservation

La cryoconservation des ovocytes
Les progrès récents dans le dans le processus de fécondation in vitro ont permis d'assurer le succès congeler , stocker et décongeler plus tard et féconder des ovules humains cryoconservés . Cryoconservation des ovocytes s'adresse à trois groupes particuliers de femmes : les personnes atteintes d' un cancer qui n'ont pas encore commencé la chimiothérapie ou la radiothérapie , et ceux en cours de traitement avec les technologies de reproduction assistée qui ne considèrent pas la congélation des embryons une option , et ceux qui voudraient préserver leur capacité future d'avoir des enfants , soit parce qu'ils ne possèdent pas encore un partenaire , ne sont pas prêts à avoir un bébé encore, mais voudrait garder cette option pour l'avenir , ou pour d'autres raisons personnelles ou médicales . Le procédé de récupération d'oeuf pour la cryoconservation d'ovocytes est la même que celle pour la fécondation in vitro . Cela inclut plusieurs semaines d' injections d'hormones et à la contraception hormonale afin de stopper l'ovulation , suivie par plus d'injections d'hormones pour stimuler les ovaires et mûrir plusieurs ovules . Quand les oeufs ont mûri , hormone supplémentaire est donné et les oeufs sont enlevés avec une aiguille guidée par échographie par voie vaginale . La procédure est réalisée sous sédation . Les œufs sont immédiatement congelés . Ovules congelés peuvent être conservés aussi longtemps que le patient souhaite , mais cela doit être indiqué avec précision , sinon , les oeufs congelés qui ne sont pas utilisées dans un délai de deux ans sont déchargées.


La cryoconservation d'embryons
La cryoconservation d'embryons ( congélation des embryons ) est la congélation des embryons «excédentaires» pour une utilisation dans des cycles de FIV ultérieures. Cette option est souvent explorée par les couples en traitement de FIV où les embryons surnuméraires qui ne seront pas transférés dans l'utérus sont congelés pour une utilisation future si la tentative de FIV échoue. Même lorsque la tentative de FIV ne manque pas et le couple est capable de concevoir , les embryons congelés peuvent être utilisés pour la seconde grossesse. Le principal avantage de l'utilisation d'embryons cryoconservés dans les futurs cycles de FIV est que la femelle n'a pas à subir une induction de l'ovulation , ce qui réduit aussi considérablement les coûts des médicaments. Les taux de réussite sont variables en fonction des caractéristiques des patients et la qualité des embryons .
Cela pourrait aussi être une option pour les couples qui ne souhaitent pas tomber enceinte tout de suite mais je voudrais préparer leurs embryons à l'avance pour une utilisation future . De cette façon , ils peuvent éviter des taux de réussite inférieurs de conception à un âge avancé .

Cryoconservation du sperme
La congélation du sperme ( cryopréservation ) est une méthode utilisée pour les patients masculins qui suivent un traitement de chimiothérapie pour un cancer ou de maladies similaires . Cela permet au patient de conserver leur sperme pour une utilisation future et éviter les risques d'infertilité associés à la chimiothérapie .

Cryopreservation

Oocyte Freezing

Recent advances in the In Vitro Fertilization process have now allowed us to successfully freeze, store and later thaw and fertilize cryopreserved human eggs. Oocyte cryopreservation is aimed at three particular groups of women: those diagnosed with cancer who have not yet begun chemoterapy or radioteraphy; those undergoing treatment with assisted reproductive technologies who do not consider embryo freezing an option; and those who would like to preserve their future ability to have children, either because they do not yet have a partner, are not ready to have a baby yet but would like to keep this option for future, or for other personal or medical reasons.

The egg-retrieval process for oocyte cryopreservation is the same as that for in vitro fertilization. This includes several weeks of hormone injections and hormonal contraception in order to stop ovulation, followed by more hormone injections to stimulate ovaries and ripen multiple eggs. When the eggs have matured, additional hormone is given and the eggs are removed with an ultrasound-guided needle through the vagina. The procedure is conducted under sedation. The eggs are immediately frozen.

Frozen eggs can be stored for as long as the patient wishes, but this must be stated precisely, otherwise, frozen eggs that are not used within a two-year period are discharged.

Embryo Freezing

Embryo Cryopreservation (embryo freezing) is the freezing of "excess" embryos for use in future IVF cycles. This option is often explored by couples undergoing IVF treatment where the excess embryos that will not be transferred into the uterus are frozen for future use if the IVF attempt fails. Even when the IVF attempt does not fail and the couple is able to conceive, the frozen embryos can be used for the second pregnancy. The major advantage to using cryopreserved embryos in future IVF cycles is that the female does not have to undergo ovulation induction, which also dramatically reduces medication cost. Success rates are variable depending on patient characteristics and embryo quality.
 

This could also be an option for couples who do not wish to get pregnant immediately but would like to prepare their embryos in advance for future use. This way, they can avoid lower success rates of conception at older age.

Infertility and IVF

At North Cyprus IVF Clinic, a thorough investigation is called for when making an assessment of your treatment options. It is important that the cause of infertility is mostly known when planning for treatment. 

When natural conception methods fail to produce pregnancy, IVF becomes an option. In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a process by which egg cells are fertilized by sperm outside the womb, in vitro. IVF is a major treatment in infertility when other methods of assisted reproductive technology have failed. The process involves hormonally controlling the ovulatory process, removing ova (eggs) from the woman's ovaries and letting sperm fertilize them in a fluid medium. The fertilized egg (zygote) is then transferred to the patient's uterus with the intent to establish a successful pregnancy. The first "test tube baby", Louise Brown, was born in 1978. Initially IVF was developed to overcome infertility due to problems of the fallopian tube, but it turned out that it was successful in many other infertility situations as well. The introduction of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) addresses the problem of male infertility to a large extent. (Male infertility consists of failure to produce sperm.)

For IVF to be successful it may be easier to say that it requires healthy ova, sperm that can fertilize, and a uterus that can maintain a pregnancy. At North Cyprus IVF, before starting to plan your treatment, we make sure all of these conditions are met.

IVF can be used for females who have already gone through menopause. The donated oocyte from a healthy young woman can be fertilized in a crucible. If the fertilization is successful, the zygote will be transferred into the uterus, within which it will develop into an embryo.

Treatment cycles are typically started on the third day of menstruation and consist of a regimen of fertility medications to stimulate the development of multiple follicles of the ovaries. In most patients injectable gonadotropins (usually FSH analogues) are used under close monitoring. Such monitoring frequently checks the estradiol level and, by means of gynecologic ultrasonography, follicular growth. Typically approximately 10 days of injections will be necessary. Spontaneous ovulation during the cycle is typically prevented by the use of GnRH agonists or GnRH antagonists, which block the natural surge of luteinizing hormone (LH).

When follicular maturation is judged to be adequate, human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is given. This agent, which acts as an analogue of luteinizing hormone, would cause ovulation about 42 hours after injection, but a retrieval procedure takes place just prior to that, in order to recover the egg cells from the ovary. The eggs are retrieved from the patient using a transvaginal technique involving an ultrasound-guided needle piercing the vaginal wall to reach the ovaries. Through this needle follicles can be aspirated, and the follicular fluid is handed to the IVF laboratory to identify ova. It is common to remove between ten and thirty eggs. The retrieval procedure takes about 20 minutes and is usually done under conscious sedation or general anesthesia.

In the laboratory, the identified eggs are stripped of surrounding cells and prepared for fertilization. In the meantime, semen is prepared for fertilization by removing inactive cells and seminal fluid. If semen is being provided by a sperm donor, it will usually have been prepared for treatment before being frozen and quarantined, and it will be thawed ready for use. The sperm and the egg are incubated together at a ratio of about 75,000:1 in the culture media for about 18 hours. In most cases, the egg will be fertilized by that time and the fertilized egg will show two pronuclei. In certain situations, such as low sperm count or motility, a single sperm may be injected directly into the egg using intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). The fertilized egg is passed to a special growth medium and left for about 72 hours until the egg consists of eight cells.
