Best Doctors for IVF Treatment in Governorpet, Vijayawada

IVF, or in vitro fertilization, is a form of assisted reproductive technology (ART) and is recommended to treat fertility. IVF is done by combining the eggs and sperm manually for fertilization, outside the body of an individual, in a lab. Followed by fertilization, the fertilized egg or embryo is placed inside the uterus. Pregnancy occurs if the embryo implants itself into the uterine wall. The common conditions for which IVF is indicated include if either of the partners are diagnosed with blocked or damaged fallopian tubes, endometriosis, PCOS, problems with uterus, uterine fibroids, low sperm count or other sperm impairments, unexplained infertility, if they are planning to use gestational surrogate or an egg donor or if there is a risk of passing on a genetic disease. IVF procedure can be broken down into several steps, starting with taking estrogen or birth control pills to control the timing of the menstrual cycle, followed by stimulation of the ovaries, and then retrieving the egg. Next to this, fertilization happens, and embryo development occurs. Once the embryo is developed, it is transferred to the uterus and pregnancy occurs.
