In Vitro Fertilization - IVF Treatment / IVF Procedure
(Click for an overview of our IVF packages)
An IVF procedure or "cycle" at SIRM is centered around our core philosophy that each and every patient is unique and should have a custom-tailored approach to her IVF treatment. Accordingly, we do an in-depth review of each patient's medical and reproductive history, and create a customized protocol based on her individual needs. Above all, our goal is to empower each patient with the information she needs to make informed decisions about in vitro fertilization / embryo transfer in conjunction with her SIRM physician.
An IVF procedure at SIRM involves the following steps:
- Preparing for Controlled Ovarian Hyperstimulation (COH)
- Undergoing Controlled Ovarian Hyperstimulation
- Egg Retrieval
- Sperm Processing
- Fertilization of Eggs in the Laboratory
- Selecting the Best Embryos for Transfer
- Embryo Transfer
- (Optional) Cryopreservation (Freezing) of Remaining Embryos
