New hope for people who want to have children. Get to know ‘IVF’ technology.
Get to know IVF, the assisted reproductive technology.
In vitro fertilization (IVF) is the process of fertilizing female and male reproductive cells, which are the female ‘egg’ and the male ‘sperm’, in a laboratory. At present, assisted reproductive technology such as IVF is less popular than ICSI because ICSI can give better results in case there are problems with the quality of gamete cells in terms of quality and quantity. However, choosing different methods will depend on the situation and suitability of each couple together with advice from the doctor.
People often misunderstand that IVF means creating human embryos and raised in a test tube until it became a baby. In fact, we can raise human embryos in a scientific laboratory only for 5-6 days, then the embryos must be quickly transferred into the woman’s uterus. To prevent the embryo from stopping development.
In vitro fertilization technology, it helps to fertilize eggs and sperm in the most complete environment. To facilitate the smooth fertilization of eggs and sperm. The fertilization will be carried out outside the body. Until the fertilized egg develops to an embryo and the embryo is transferred into the woman’s uterus in order to allow implantation and pregnancy.
5 popular questions about IVF
- What health condition is suitable for IVF treatment?
Couples or couples who are infertile. The woman has a problem with blocked fallopian tubes on both sides or men who have problems with poor sperm. Very low sperm count or abnormal sperm motility. Including couples who are infertile with unidentified cause. Those who have undergone other methods of infertility treatment, such as IUI more than 4-6 times, but the woman is still unable to conceive. In vitro fertilization increases the chances of a successful pregnancy.
- What are the procedures of ICSI?
When a reproductive medicine specialist makes a diagnosis, evaluates a couple’s health condition and chooses the appropriate infertility treatment, the doctor will make an appointment. Starting with injections to stimulate the wife’s ovulation for a period of 10-14 days. Once the eggs are ready, they will be extracted. By a transvaginal ultrasound along with using a tool to extract the egg cells out. After getting egg cells, husband will proceed sperm collection. After that, fertilization takes place between the egg and sperm. The scientists will inject sperm directly into the egg. Next, the embryo culture takes place for a period of 5-6 days until the embryos are in the blastocyst stage (Blastocyst Culture). The embryos are then transferred into the uterine cavity, which can be done in 2 ways: fresh or frozen embryo transfer. After that, a couple will wait for pregnancy test.
- How much does IVF cost? Is it more expensive for having twins?
Total cost of IVF depends on many factors. From selecting technology for treatment, various physical health problems of every couple. During treatment, the doctor will need to use different dosages as well which affects the cost of treatment. In case of twins pregnancy, we must say that twins pregnancy is considered riskier and more dangerous than normal pregnancy. Most of the time, twins born from the IVF process are fraternal twins. They are born from different eggs. So, their appearance is not exactly the same. But they are similar like brothers/sisters. Therefore, you should always consult your doctor before making a decision.
- What is success rate of IVF?
Success rate in IVF is measured by the women’s pregnancy success rate. In vitro fertilization using ICSI is an assisted reproductive technology that has a success rate of 50-80%.
- What are the limitations of IVF?
Important factors leading to success in IVF mostly come from the health of both the female and male partners. The health obstacles that are often encountered in women include: ovarian dysfunction, uterine fibroids interfere implantation of the embryo. These things can be solved before starting the IVF process.
For men’s problems are about the sperm quality. It is often found that there is very low sperm count. As well as the sperm movement is very impaired. If no sperm is found, PESA/TESE must be done by directly extracting sperm from the testicles and submitted into the ICSI process.
Another important limitation that those interested in IVF must consider is the readiness of the laboratory. Which must have tools and use embryo culture technology that is modern, clean, and use specialized embryologists to increase the chance of successful fertilization in the best environment.
