Ingenes on "Mi Cita Médica": Egg Restoration with IVF MORE®

The Televisa Tijuana program Mi Cita Médica, hosted by Dr. Diane Pérez, recently aired a special episode on fertility and advancements in assisted reproduction. In this edition, Dr. Pérez interviewed embryologist Jeimy Pedraza, Corporate Director of Assisted Reproduction Laboratories at Instituto Ingenes, who provided an in-depth explanation of the innovative IVF MORE® (Magnetic Ovulatory Restoration) technique and its impact on fertility.

The Challenge of Fertility in Advanced Maternal Age

More and more women are postponing motherhood for professional, personal, or medical reasons. However, female fertility declines with age, especially after 35, making natural conception more difficult. Traditionally, women with low ovarian reserve had to resort to egg donation, which can be a challenging decision for those who wish for their baby to carry their genetic material.

This is where Instituto Ingenes, a leader in assisted reproduction, offers a revolutionary alternative: IVF MORE®, a technique that improves the quality of a woman's own eggs, providing new hope for those who wish to conceive using their genetics.

What Is IVF MORE® and Who Can Benefit?

During the interview, Dr. Jeimy Pedraza explained that IVF MORE® is a procedure designed to enhance egg quality in women with low ovarian reserve or poor egg quality. It is particularly beneficial for:

• Women over 40 who still have eggs but face challenges conceiving.
• Patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) or Endometriosis, conditions that affect egg quality.
• Women who have experienced multiple failed IVF treatments where embryos did not develop properly.

Dr. Pedraza emphasized that the egg is the primary engine of embryo development. If the egg lacks sufficient quality, achieving a successful pregnancy becomes difficult, even with advanced assisted reproduction treatments.

How Does IVF MORE® Work?

Dr. Pedraza outlined the step-by-step process of IVF MORE®, which integrates several innovative techniques to optimize egg quality and improve pregnancy success rates.

Egg Retrieval and Metabolic Evaluation

• The ovaries are stimulated to retrieve eggs, which are then analyzed to assess their energy and morphological quality.
• ATP (cellular energy) levels and other key factors are measured to determine the egg’s developmental potential.

Egg Restoration

• Poor-quality eggs receive growth factors and energy components derived from the patient’s own cells, optimizing their function and reducing genetic risks.

Magnetic Field Culture

• Restored eggs are placed in a magnetic field incubator, which enhances cell division and increases embryo viability.

Advanced Fertilization

• Instead of conventional fertilization, IVF MORE® uses PICSI (Physiological ICSI), a technique that selects the best sperm by binding to hyaluronic acid molecules, ensuring higher embryo quality.

Uterine Preparation for Implantation

• The endometrium is optimized with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to create an ideal environment for embryo implantation and improve pregnancy success rates.

Scientific Impact and International Validation

Dr. Pedraza also highlighted that this procedure was developed in collaboration with Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) in the United States, a leading institution in gene therapy and reproductive biology.

This protocol has shown a significant impact on embryo quality, reducing the rate of genetically abnormal embryos from 82% to 28%.

This reduction greatly enhances the chances of achieving a healthy pregnancy while minimizing the risk of genetic abnormalities, such as Down syndrome, particularly in older women.
