Ingenes is the leading assisted reproduction institute in Latin America, with the highest success rate and over 75,000 babies born.
Since 2021 we have arrived in the United States to prove that we are not just another option, but the best alternative in the U.S. market, with high quality and affordable prices
What is Ingenes United States and what services does it offer?
Ingenes United States is the extension of the renowned Ingenes network, specialized in in vitro fertilization (IVF), ICSI, and other assisted reproduction techniques. We accompany you every step of the way: initial consultation, ovarian stimulation (8–13 days), follicular puncture, embryo development, transfer, and follow-up. We use state-of-the-art laboratories in Mexico for embryo development and vitrification. All hormonal doses are measured in mL or IU according to your protocol, so it is vital not to self-medicate without consulting a specialist.
How does the treatment work in six steps?
Step 1: Initial consultation and personalized plan (Day 1)
- We evaluate your medical history, hormone levels, and ultrasound.
- We design a tailored ovarian stimulation protocol (150–300 IU/day of gonadotropins for 8–13 days).
Step 2: Ovarian stimulation and endometrial preparation (Days 2–13)
- Daily injections guided by ultrasound to monitor follicular growth.
- hCG trigger (10,000 IU) when follicles reach 18–20 mm.
Step 3: Trip to Mexico for egg retrieval and semen preparation
- Egg retrieval under sedation (approx. 2 mg/kg of propofol) at Ingenes Mexico.
- Preparation of fresh or frozen semen in advanced andrology laboratories.
Step 4: Embryo development and transfer (Days 4–6 in Mexico)
- Fertilization (IVF or ICSI) and embryo culture at 37 °C, 6 % CO₂.
- Transfer of one or two high-quality blastocysts (3–6 days after retrieval).
Take the opportunity to rest and explore a bit of Mexico.
Step 5: Return to the U.S. and pregnancy test (≥ 10 days after transfer)
- At-home blood test (β-hCG) to confirm your pregnancy.
- Send your results to your Ingenes doctor for the next steps.
Step 6: First gestational consultation and early monitoring
- Ultrasound at 6–7 weeks to visualize the sac and heartbeat.
- Continue hormonal support according to your prescription.
Typical treatment timeline
The process takes 4–6 weeks from the first appointment to the pregnancy test. The trip to Mexico is scheduled mid-cycle, with one-day outpatient procedures. You return on days 5–6 post-retrieval.

Frequently asked questions
1. What are the selection criteria?
We evaluate age, ovarian reserve (AMH in ng/mL), BMI (kg/m²), and reproductive history. Each case receives a personalized plan. We also review hysterosalpingography, semen analysis, and comorbidities.
2. What risks and side effects are there?
The most common are ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), light bleeding after retrieval, and discomfort after transfer. We minimize these with monitoring and dose adjustments. If you experience severe pain or fever > 38 °C, contact your specialist immediately.
3. Can I use donor eggs or sperm?
Yes, we offer anonymous donation programs with genetic and psychological screening of donors to ensure quality. We match according to blood type, genetics, and ethnic preferences.
4. How do travel arrangements affect my treatment?
There are only two trips (round trip) at key stages. Each procedure is one day. In Mexico we recommend relative rest and light activities; we coordinate transfers and accommodations.
