Your first face-to-face session with our fertility experts marks a pivotal step in your IVF journey. This consultation is far more than just a meet-and-greet – it’s a deep dive into your reproductive health, a moment of discovery, and the beginning of a customized pathway to parenthood.

Here’s what to expect during this session:

• 🧠 Holistic Medical Review: We’ll examine your reproductive and general health records to better understand the full scope of your fertility profile.
• 🧪 Personalized Diagnostics: Guided by your history and goals, we’ll recommend targeted tests – such as hormone assessments, pelvic scans, or semen analysis to clarify the picture.

✨ This session is where clarity begins and we’re here to make sure you feel confident, informed, and supported every step of the way.

At Viva Fertility, we understand the emotional weight behind the question: “Why am I unable to conceive?” This step is our deep-dive investigation – where compassionate care meets diagnostic precision.

Our clinical team conducts comprehensive, bespoke fertility assessments designed to uncover the root causes of conception challenges. No two journeys are alike, so we tailor each evaluation to reflect your unique medical history, symptoms, and personal goals.

🧪 Once your diagnostic tests are complete, we will:

• 🔬 Analyze Your Results: From hormone profiles to imaging and semen analysis, we’ll carefully examine every data point to gain a clear understanding of the factors at play.
• 🧠 Explain What It Means: You’ll receive a thoughtful breakdown of your test outcomes – clarifying why conception may be difficult and what opportunities exist for improvement.
• 🗣️ Discuss Your Options: We present the full spectrum of fertility solutions available to you – from assisted reproductive techniques to lifestyle recommendations and supportive therapies.
• 🗺️ Craft Your Path Forward: Armed with these insights, we’ll develop a pragmatic and personalized treatment strategy focused on optimizing your chances of success.

✨ This step empowers you with answers and sets the stage for a treatment plan that’s not just medically sound, but personally meaningful.

With your fertility assessments complete and your personalized plan in hand, we now begin the active phase of your IVF journey. This is where science meets timing, and every decision is designed to optimize outcomes.

The most common next step is ovarian stimulation, though your path may differ based on your diagnosis and plan. Here’s what the typical stimulation phase includes:

• 🧬 Tailored Medications: You’ll begin carefully calibrated hormonal therapy to stimulate your ovaries. These medications help develop multiple mature follicles to increase chances of successful fertilization.
• 📊 Ongoing Monitoring: Regular ultrasound scans and blood tests help us track follicular growth, hormone levels, and overall response. Our goal is precision, safety, and individual care.
• 🗓️ Trigger Shot Timing: When follicles reach optimal size, we administer a trigger injection that prepares the eggs for retrieval. Timing is everything, and we’ll guide you every step of the way.
• 🤝 Continuous Support: Throughout stimulation, we stay closely connected, ready to answer questions, adjust medications, or just offer reassurance.

💫 At Viva Fertility, this phase marks the transition from planning to possibility – and we ensure that your protocol is executed with meticulous attention and heartfelt support.

This phase marks a significant milestone in your IVF journey: the collection of mature eggs and the beginning of fertilization. It’s a moment filled with anticipation, where science and hope converge to spark the earliest steps of new life.

🥚 Egg Retrieval Procedure

Your egg retrieval is scheduled approximately 34 – 36 hours after the trigger injection – timed precisely for optimal egg maturity.

• 🔬 Gentle, Guided Process: Performed under light sedation, this procedure uses ultrasound guidance and a fine needle to gently collect eggs from the ovaries.
• 💤 Comfort-Focused Approach: Mild anesthesia is administered to ensure ease during the procedure, and potent analgesics are available post-procedure to alleviate discomfort. Most women are able to return home within a few hours, feeling supported and secure.
• ⏱️ Safe & Swift: The entire process usually takes 20–30 minutes, followed by brief recovery monitoring in our care suite.

⚗️ Sperm Preparation & Fertilization

In the hours following egg retrieval, sperm – whether fresh, frozen, or donor-sourced – is meticulously prepared by our embryology team.

• 🧬 Precision in Preparation: Our lab specialists optimize sperm quality to ensure the highest chances of successful fertilization.
• 👨‍🔬 Fertilization Techniques: Depending on your treatment plan, fertilization occurs via conventional IVF or Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI), where a single sperm is directly injected into each mature egg.

🤝 What You Can Expect

• 🛌 Rest & Recovery: Most patients return home the same day and resume light activities shortly after.
• 💬 Transparent Updates: We’ll communicate with you regularly—keeping you informed on lab progress and upcoming steps.
• 💓 Emotional Support: We understand the significance of this phase and ensure you feel heard, cared for, and never alone.

A day after fertilization (day 1) approximately 17 – 20 hours after egg insemination/treatment the eggs are accessed by our embryologists for fertilization.

🧪 Embryo Culture

• From Zygote to Embryo: Normally fertilized eggs, known as zygotes, are selected and returned to the incubator for culture, where they begin dividing to form embryos.
• Blastocyst Formation: By Day 5, embryos typically develop into blastocysts – fluid-filled cellular structures that signal readiness for implantation.

🔬 Selection for Transfer

• Morphological Scoring: Our expert embryologists use internationally recognized morphological scoring criteria to assess embryo quality. This detailed evaluation considers factors like cell symmetry, fragmentation, and development speed – allowing us to identify the healthiest candidates for uterine transfer.
• Genetic Screening Option: For couples at increased risk of genetic disorders, we offer Pre-implantation Genetic Testing (PGT). This advanced technique allows for the identification of chromosomally and genetically normal embryos prior to transfer, giving added confidence and safety.

✨ Each embryo is more than cells—it’s possibility, promise, and potential. We treat this step with the utmost care, helping you move forward with clarity and hope.

Embryo transfer is one of the most pivotal moments in the IVF journey. At Viva Fertility Clinic, we specialize in this delicate procedure, ensuring safety, precision, and the highest likelihood of success. It’s where possibility begins to take root—guided by science, compassion, and meticulous expertise.

🧬 Selection & Preparation

• Top Embryo Selection: Using morphological scoring and, if applicable, Pre-implantation Genetic Testing (PGT), our embryologists identify the most viable embryo(s) for transfer.
• Embryo Viability: Only healthy, high-potential embryos are selected. Any surplus embryos are cryopreserved for future use, supporting continuity in your fertility journey.
• Uterine Readiness: Your endometrium is evaluated to ensure it’s optimally receptive for implantation.

🏥 The Transfer Procedure

• Guided Precision: The embryo(s) are gently placed into the uterus using a specialized catheter, inserted through the cervix under real-time ultrasound guidance. This takes place in our state-of-the-art IVF theatre.
• Comfort-Oriented: The procedure is generally painless, though some patients may experience mild discomfort. No anesthesia is typically required, and recovery is swift.

⏱️ Optimal Timing

• Blastocyst Transfers Only: At Viva Fertility, we perform embryo transfers exclusively on Day 5 or 6, when embryos have reached the blastocyst stage – enhancing implantation potential.
• Collaborative Decisions: We recommend transferring 1 to 2 embryos, depending on your clinical profile, age, and fertility goals. This decision is made with your physician to optimize outcomes while minimizing risks.

💞 After the Transfer

• Brief Recovery: You’ll rest in our clinic before returning home the same day with post-care instructions.
• Next Steps: Approximately 9 – 14 days later, a pregnancy test will confirm whether implantation was successful.

Following embryo transfer, the body enters a delicate and critical phase—implantation. At Viva Fertility Clinic, we provide targeted hormonal support and attentive follow-up to give every potential pregnancy the best chance of success.

💊 Luteal Phase Support

• Exogenous Hormones: Beginning the day of egg retrieval, we administer supplemental progesterone and estradiol to maintain a receptive uterine lining and promote embryo implantation.
• Continued Monitoring: These hormones are essential until pregnancy is confirmed and sustained. They support the endometrial environment during this key window of development.

🧪 Pregnancy Testing & Follow-Up

• Test Timing: Pregnancy testing occurs between 10 to 14 days after embryo transfer, using sensitive blood-based diagnostics for accurate results.
• Positive Outcome: If the test is positive, luteal support continues until approximately 12 weeks of gestation—when the placenta naturally takes over hormone production.
• Negative Outcome: In the event of a negative test, our compassionate IVF team will meet with you to discuss next steps, including emotional support and the possibility of initiating a new IVF cycle with revised insights.
