IVF Services at MomStory
In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF) is used for treatment of infertility in couples. This involves retrieving eggs from ovaries and combining them with sperm for achieving fertilization. This is done in a specialised laboratory through the use of Assisted Reproductive Technology. The fertilized egg (now called an embryo) is then implanted within the uterus to achieve Pregnancy. Usually the whole process in one cycle takes 4-6 weeks.
IVF can be done using a couple’s own eggs and sperms or using a donor for either or both. Each patient is different and treatment plan will vary as per requirements of individual couples. Our Doctors identify these and develop customised plans to provide the best care available.
