Some people say IVF is lengthy, some say it is not. Which is true?

“IVF is a specialised process. In this process, sperm and egg are fertilised in a lab under controlled environment and regular monitoring till an embryo is formed. This embryo is then transferred to the woman’s uterus who then takes it to full term and delivers a baby. That is a 9-month long journey in which the time period required for IVF treatment is generally around 6-8 weeks. So, IVF is not a long process at all,” says Dr. Gunjan Gupta, Founder & Medical Director of Gunjan IVF World, a leading IVF center in Ghaziabad.

Gunjan IVF World is also the two times winner of the best IVF clinic chain award by ETHealthworld and has four highly advanced clinics at Indirapuram, Janakpuri, Meerut and Noida.

“IVF treatment starts with the initial assessment wherein the doctor would check all medical records, previous history, routine tests, etc. to get to the root cause of the couple’s inability to conceive naturally. Once the real reason has been deciphered, the doctor chalks out a treatment plan,” stated Dr. Anshu Dhar, Consultant at Gunjan IVF World, a well-known IVF clinic in Indirapuram, Ghaziabad.

“Ovarian stimulation forms the next step in an IVF treatment. In this, the woman is administered injections to stimulate the ovaries. The injections stimulate the ovaries in producing more eggs. This entire procedure takes around 10-12 days,” commented Dr. Garima Sharma, Consultant and Centre In-Charge of the best IVF clinic in Janakpuri – Gunjan IVF World, who else!

“The next step in IVF treatment is oocyte retrieval or egg pick up. In this, eggs are taken out of the ovaries using a fine needle. And this is usually done 36 hours after the last hormonal injections,” added Dr. Shubhda Gupta, gynecologist Noida and Consultant at Gunjan IVF World, a famous IVF center in Noida.

“Once the eggs have been collected along with sperm from the male partner, both are fertilised in a controlled environment in a lab under continuous monitoring till an embryo develops. 5 days post the formation of embryos, they are transferred to the woman’s uterus, who the takes it to full term to finally deliver a baby,” mentioned Dr. Aastha Raheja, Consultant at a renowned IVF centre in Ghaziabad – Gunjan IVF World.

“A pregnancy test is done after 11 days of embryo transfer to confirm pregnancy. So, this means, it’s just 2 months to a baby. In cases, where couples plan to freeze the embryos, the treatment is generally completed in 6-8 weeks,” concluded Dr. Gunjan Gupta, a celebrated gynaecologist Ghaziabad.
