What is IVF?

In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is a multi-step fertility treatment that involves retrieving eggs, fertilizing them in a lab, and transferring an embryo into the uterus. IVF is one of the most effective fertility treatments available and is commonly recommended for:

  • Diminished ovarian reserve or low egg quality
  • Blocked fallopian tubes or tubal damage
  • Male factor infertility, such as low sperm count
  • Unexplained infertilityLGBTQ+ family building
  • Patients using donor eggs or sperm

With IVF, we can precisely select and transfer the "healthiest" embryos, increasing your chances of a successful pregnancy.

The IVF Process – What to Expect

IVF involves several steps, all carefully monitored by your fertility team:

Step One

Ovarian Stimulation

Hormonal medications encourage the ovaries to produce multiple eggs.

Step Two

Egg Retrieval

 A minor, in-office procedure is performed to collect the mature eggs.

Step Three

Fertilization & Embryo Development:

Eggs are combined with sperm in the lab to create embryos, using either standard IVF or a specialized method called Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) for certain cases. 

Step Four

Preimplantation Genetic Testing (Optional): 

Embryos can be tested for genetic abnormalities before implantation.

Step Five

Embryo Transfer:

The highest-quality embryo is usually placed into the uterus.

Step Six

Pregnancy Test:

A blood test confirms pregnancy about two weeks after transfer.

Our personalized approach ensures that each stage is designed to fit your medical needs, maximizing your chances of success.

Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT): Enhancing IVF with Genetic Screening

Genetic testing during IVF helps select the healthiest embryo and can reduce the risk of miscarriage and increase the chances of a successful pregnancy.

Types of PGT Offered at Blue Sky Fertility:

PGT-A (Aneuploidy Screening): Testing to estimate the number of chromosomes in each embryo.

PGT-M (Monogenic Disorder Testing): Screens for inherited single gene conditions such as cystic fibrosis, sickle cell anemia, or spinal muscular atrophy.

PGT-SR (Structural Rearrangements): Identifies chromosomal translocations (the rearrangement of DNA) that can impact implantation, cause miscarriage, or lead to birth defects.

Who Should Consider Genetic Testing?

  • Individuals or couples with a history of miscarriage or failed IVF cycles
  • Those with a family history of genetic conditions
  • Women over 35, when chromosomal abnormalities are more likely
  • Patients using donor eggs or sperm

By incorporating PGT into your IVF cycle, we often improve success rates and help increase your chances of a a healthy pregnancy.
