How do you know if you have a problem having a baby?

“If you are under 35 years old, you have tried to have a baby for 12 months or more and you have not succeeded, you need the help of an Assisted Reproduction treatment. As well as if you are over 35 years of age and have tried for 6 months or more, which is established by the World Health Organization.

5 pasos de la Fecundación In Vitro (FIV) 

In vitro fertilization requires the constant follow-up and monitoring of an expert in Assisted Reproduction, to avoid risks and complications throughout the process, which consists of 5 steps to be carried out:

1. Ovarian stimulation

A woman releases one egg per month, therefore, in this step the administration of medications is necessary, which will serve to stimulate the ovaries and cause them to release several eggs, in order to go to the second step.

2. Egg retrieval

In this step, the egg retrieval occurs, using an adapted ultrasound with an attachment, which sucks the follicles to obtain mature eggs.

The ideal is to obtain between 10 and 20 ovules to carry out the treatment and have a greater probability of success.

At this point it is important to mention that, if you do not obtain a sufficient number of eggs, or if they are not of sufficient quality, it is very likely that your fertility specialist will not continue with the next step, since doing it this way could compromise the success of your treatment.

If this happens, you and your specialist will review what happened in the previous steps and start a new stimulation protocol to retrieve more and better eggs in a following menstrual cycle.

3. Fertilization

Here the semen sample, either from the partner or from a donor, is subjected to a technique called: sperm capacitation, which works to increase the fertility potential of the sperm.

Once this technique has been carried out, the best spermatozoa are placed together with the best quality ovules in a laboratory dish, to give way to fertilization, and thus form the embryos.

4. Embryo culture

Once the embryos are formed, they will be placed and kept in special incubators, and are constantly monitored to analyze that they grow and develop properly.

5. Embryo transfer

The ideal embryos are placed inside the woman's uterus through a catheter, a painless process that requires advanced selection techniques to avoid multiple pregnancies.

It is worth mentioning that the uterus and the woman's body must also be prepared and be in optimal conditions to receive the embryos. Once this step is completed, the patient must wait between 9 and 11 days to perform a pregnancy test.
