IVF
When choosing an in vitro
fertilization (IVF) clinic, keep in mind that a clinic’s success
rate depends on
many factors, such as patients’ ages and medical issues, as well as the
clinic’s treatment population and treatment approaches. Ask
for detailed information about the costs associated with each step of the procedure.
Before beginning a cycle of IVF using your own eggs and sperm, you
and your partner will likely need various screenings, including:
- Ovarian reserve testing. To determine the quantity and quality of your
eggs, your doctor might test the concentration of follicle-stimulating
hormone (FSH), estradiol (estrogen) and antimullerian hormone in your
blood during the first few days of your menstrual cycle. Test results
often used together with an ultrasound of your ovaries, can help predict
how your ovaries will respond to fertility medication.
- Semen analysis. If not done as part of your initial fertility
evaluation, your doctor will conduct a semen analysis shortly before the
start of an IVF treatment cycle.
- Infectious disease screening. You and your partner will both be screened for
infectious diseases, including HIV.
- Practice (mock) embryo transfer. Your doctor might conduct a mock embryo
transfer to determine the depth of your uterine cavity and the technique
most likely to successfully place the embryos into your uterus.
- Uterine cavity
exam. Your doctor will examine your
uterine cavity before you start IVF. This might involve a
sonohysterography — in which fluid is injected through the cervix into
your uterus — and an ultrasound to create images of your uterine cavity.
Or it might include a hysteroscopy — in which a thin, flexible, lighted
telescope (hysteroscope) is inserted through your vagina and cervix into
your uterus
