Infertility Treatments

Infertility is failure to achieve pregnancy after 12 months of unprotected intercourse. Complete evaluation and treatment for both partners is available at our Hospital. We have been successful in treating many infertile couples through ovulation induction, intrauterine insemination & IVF/ICSI (test tube baby). Our centre has a good success rate of 50-60% with IVF couples at affordable costs.

Infertility Treatment Facilities Available :

1) Ovulation induction, follicular studies followed by either timed intercourse or Intrauterine Insemination (IUI- with husband's or     donor sperms).

2) IVF (Test tube baby). We offer highest IVF success rates (50-60%) at affordable costs.

It Is Offered To Females :

 Tubal factor infertility

 Severe endometriosis

 Falied multiple cycles of OI, IUI

 Unexplained infertility, etc

 Male factor infertility- very low counts, motility

Women has to receive daily injections either starting from day 18 of the previous cycle or on day 2 of the cycle depending on the type of protocol planned. The dosage and the number of injections will vary from person to person depending upon their response. Once the eggs are matured, the egg pick up will be planned(under GA). After the pickup, the embryos are transferred after 3 -5 days. The result of IVF cycle will be confirmed after 2 weeks from the day of embryo transfer.

3) ICSI

For ICSI, the stimulation protocol is same as that for IVF.

Procedure of ICSI :

 The sperm counts are low (oligospermia)

 Sperms are immotile (asthenospermia)

 Teratozoospermia, necrozoospermia, antisperm antibodies

 TESA / Testicular biopsy was done to retrieve sperms

 Previous failed IVF

Here a single sperm is taken and injected into an egg to achieve fertilization

.
4) Egg donation (ovum donation)

It is indicated for those females whose ovarian reserve is exhausted and hence not able to produce their own eggs. Hence eggs are taken from a young and healthy donor (similar to an IVF cycle) and fertilised with the husbands sperms. The embryo formed and is been transferred to the patient's womb (recipient), in the usual fashion like an IVF cycle.

5) Embryo donation

Indicated in :

There may be fertility problems such has neither of the partners would not be able to produce healthy gametes. In this case, the best option would be suggested for Embryo Donation.

Other Indications -

 For menopausal or perimenopausal women with a sub-fertile partner

 Recurrent IVF failures

 Patients who are carriers of genetic disease or chromosomal abnormalities

6) Embryo freezing (cryopreservation)

Extra embryos if present in excess and of good quality are preserved so that they can be used later if the first cycle fails.

7) Sperm freezing

Sperm freezing is an option for those males who might not be present on the day of ovum pick up or intrauterine insemination. It also helps those who fail to produce their sample on the particular day due to stress.

8) Surrogacy

Indications To Go In For Surrogacy

Woman without uterus- by birth or by hysterectomy

Woman with some uterine disease (adenomyosis, multiple fibroids, endometrial damage)

Woman with chronic ill health (uncontrolled diabetes & hypertension, heart disease, seizer's disorders, physical disability etc)

The prospective parent may be a single man or a male couple who would like to become parents

Laser Assisted Hatching

The procedure is based on the fact that an alteration in zona pellucida (outer covering of egg) either by drilling a hole through it or by thinning it, will promote hatching or implantation of embryos that are otherwise unable to escape intact from the zona pellucida.

10) Blastocyst culture

11) Zona free embryo transfer

12) Sperm retrieval procedures

 The testicular / epididymal sperm retrieval techniques are:

 PESA - Percutaneous Epididymal Sperm Aspiration

 MESA - Microsurgical Epididymal Sperm Aspiration

 TESA - Testicular Sperm Aspiration

 TESE - Testicular Sperm Extraction

13) Semen banking

These facilities are available in Altius Hospital. The bank contains frozen sperm from voluntary donors with various backgrounds and physical characteristics to match with the individual needs. Donors are screened thoroughly to rule out transmission of any infectious or genetic diseases.

Other treatment modalities for infertile patients

 Laparoscopic tubal recanalization

 Laparoscopic varicocele ligation in male patients
