IVF (in vitro fertilization)

IVF (artificial insemination) is an effective method of treating infertility when some stages of conception take place outside the woman's body. The method of artificial insemination involves the collection of eggs from a woman, the collection of sperm from a man and the fertilization of cells in special embryological conditions, after which the embryos are transferred into the woman's uterine cavity at a certain moment.

How to become parents

For a happy family, the birth of a child is very important.
Infertility, for many couples, sounds like a terrible diagnosis and sentence.
According to the World Health Organization, 15% of couples are infertile. Zhordania clinic technologies allow us to solve this problem by the most effective, comfortable and safest way.

Stage 1 Reproductologist consultation, diagnosis of infertility cause, choice of IVF method, examination before the program

Stage 2 Undergoing of the IVF protocol, confirmation of pregnancy, the birth of a long-awaited child

Indications

The IVF method is recommended if a woman and/or a man has been diagnosed with infertility. Female factors of infertility: tubal infertility; endometriosis; age-related changes; Infertility associated with the uterus, cervical infertility. Male factors of infertility: low activity and quality of spermatozoa, unexplained infertility.

Contradictions

The treatment method is individual for each patient, and contraindications are considered individually.

What affects the success?

The natural chance of getting pregnant in one menstrual cycle is about 20%, provided the couple is healthy. The IVF method in the Zhordania clinic increases the chance of getting pregnant up to 80%. The success of infertility treatment depends on the correct approach to the diagnosis and preparation of the couple for the IVF program.

Program duration

Usually the program duration is one menstrual cycle, which is about 2-4 weeks.

Debunking fears and myths to switch myths and fears, use the buttons

    We still have a lot of time left If a man and a woman (a couple) can’t get pregnant during a year of sexual life, they should immediately contact a reproductologist. The ability to have children is very important for any woman and man, so the best reproductologists of the Zhordania clinic are waiting for you for a consultation in order to walk this important path together.

    How many IVF attempts can be done? Everything is individual. But as a rule, in the Zhordania clinic, we get a long-awaited pregnancy from the first IVF attempt, since we are very careful in identifying the cause of infertility.

  • 3

    A child born by IVF will differ from other children This is a myth, since all processes occur in the same way, while some stages occur in a special environment close to the conditions of the woman's body. So children are born exactly the same as in natural fertilization.

  • 4

    IVF children are more sickly and not as strong as other children All processes during the IVF program are the same. Only some stages take place in a special environment, close to the conditions of the woman's body, so children are born exactly the same as in natural fertilization.

  • 5

    The hormones used to stimulate ovulation are harmful, I will gain weight and look bad This is a myth, since hormones are selected individually, they are similar to the hormones that are secreted in the a woman's body .

We'll go through this together How IVF is made

1

Preparation

  • tests for hormones (estradiol, FSH, prolactin, progesterone, luteinizing and somatotropic hormones, androgens, as well as thyroid hormones);
  • gynecological examination (a smear for flora, cytological analysis of the cervical canal contents);

2

Ultrasound

  • tests for infections (ureaplasma, gardnerella, chlamydia, gonococci, mycoplasmas, human papillomavirus and cytomegalovirus, HIV, syphilis, toxoplasmosis, and rubella antibodies);
  • blood tests (general, biochemical, glucose, hemostasis, etc.) and urine (general);
  • for a man - spermogram, tests for infections
According to indications, the reproductologist can recommend: hysteroscopy, laparoscopy, hysterosonography and other instrumental studies.

3

Ovulation stimulation

When preparing a woman for conception, it is necessary to obtain a sufficient number of eggs. To do this, stimulation is carried out with hormonal preparations, under the influence of which a large number of follicles grows in a woman. The reproductologist observes the growth of follicles and controls it using the ultrasound method. When the follicles reach a certain size, the eggs are collected.
Stage duration: 8-14 days.

4

Obtaining eggs

Egg collection is performed by transvaginal puncture under light anesthesia, so it is absolutely painless. Egg collection is absolutely harmless to the woman's body.
Duration: about 30 min.

5

Obtaining spermatozoa

A man donates sperm under special conditions for subsequent fertilization. Before donating biological material, a man needs to: refrain from intimacy for 2-3 days, exclude alcohol and overheating (saunas and baths) for 7-10 days.
Duration: 30 min

6

Artificial insemination

Fertilization of the obtained eggs with the husband's sperm occurs in vitro. Fertilized cells (embryos) are placed in an incubator for 3-5 days, which is as close as possible to the conditions of the female body. Within 3-5 days, the embryologist monitors the condition of the embryos in the incubator. And he monitors all the displayed indicators every minute.
Duration: 3-5 days.

7

Introduction of the embryo into the uterine cavity

When the embryos have reached a certain stage of development, on the 5th-6th day they are transferred to the uterine cavity. The transfer is carried out using a special elastic catheter. The procedure is painless and therefore does not require anesthesia.
Duration: 5-10 min.

8

Hormonal support for women

After the transfer of the embryo into the uterine cavity of a woman, a special hormonal support for her body is carried out for 2 weeks to maintain pregnancy.
Duration: 14 days.

9

Confirmation of pregnancy

After the end of hormonal support, a pregnancy test is performed, and a week later, an ultrasound scan is performed.
Duration: 12-14 days

      I am very grateful to the Zhordania clinic for fulfilling my dream with my husband. Couldn't get pregnant for 12 months. I turned to the Zhordania clinic on the recommendation of a friend who has already become a mother thanks to them. And so, the Zhordania clinic solved all our problems with my husband and we became happy parents of a healthy baby. Even considering that my husband and I are considered foreigners, there were no problems for the treatment and management of the pregnancy.

      Alexa

      5 years ago I gave birth to my eldest son. After 2 years, my husband and I planned our second child. But I had a hormonal failure and for a year I could not get pregnant. My husband and I were examined and I was diagnosed with infertility due to hormonal imbalance. Then our family moved to Georgia because of my husband's work. But the desire to have 2 children did not go away. And I started looking for a clinic that would help my husband and me. We had few friends in the country at that time, but Georgians are very hospitable and sympathetic. Once, while walking with a child in the park, I met a girl whom I told about my problem. After hearing my story, she introduced me to her friend Nana, who had already gone through this. Nana reassured me and told me about the Zhordania clinic, which specializes in these problems. I went to the clinic and we immediately started treatment with the doctor. And thanks to the specialists of the Zhordania clinic, the eldest son had a brother, and my husband and I became the parents of 2 children

      I am from the Czech Republic. And when we can't make a child for a long time, we decided that it wasn’t time yet. After 3 years we came to rest in Georgia again. I remembered the clinic, which helped me a lot at the time, and I decided to go for a consultation at the Zhordania clinic. And soon we know the reason for the lack of pregnancy. Il was prescribed a treatment plan. After the successful completion of the treatment, my husband and I were able to have our child. We recently became the parents of a wonderful daughter. Thanks again to the Jordania clinic.

      Innes

      My name is Innes. I am from Latvia. My path of happy motherhood was thorny. It started 6 years ago. My husband and I planned to have a baby, but nothing worked out for us for 2 years. My husband and I were examined in our country and my husband was diagnosed with infertility. We started to apply to clinics in Latvia, but the treatment did not bring results. 3 years ago, my husband and I went to visit friends in Georgia to take our minds off treatment and relax. Our friends introduced us to a married couple who previously faced the same problem, but have already become the parents of a beautiful son. They advised me to go to the Zhordania clinic. We went through treatment and became the parents of incredible twins. We are very grateful to friends for the recommendation and for the work done by the Zhordania clinic.
