Egg Collection and Transfer

What is Egg Collection ?

Egg collection also known as oocyte retrieval is an important step in the IVF cycle. It takes place when matured oocytes are collected with utmost care from the ovaries. They are then fertilized in the laboratory with sperm. This procedure is sedated and well-trained in the most advanced ultrasound-guided technique to ensure optimum comfort.

What is Egg Transfer ?

The egg transfer or embryo transfer, is simply a process of putting a previously fertilized embryo into the uterus. This is the most sensitive step in the IVF procedure. It occurs after successful fertilization and embryo growth from the eggs. Egg transfer is a necessary and perfect procedure that should be done with great care and precision. This procedure gives the embryo the best chance for a successful pregnancy.

Egg Collection and Transfer Process

Consultation and Testing

The process starts with an overview consultation, which consists of meeting your fertility specialists. Your medical history will be assessed then relevant tests will be taken and a personal treatment plan will be designed concerning individual needs.

Ovarian Stimulation

Before egg collection, ovarian stimulation is performed using fertility medications. This step is done to enhance the development of multiple eggs to increase the possibility of fertilization. Regular ultrasounds and blood work testing is done.

Egg Collection

Once the eggs are matured, the egg-collection procedure is set. After monitoring mild to moderate sedation, the procedure lasts 20-30 minutes. Our specialists will aspirate the eggs from the ovaries under ultrasound guidance,

Fertilization and Embryo Development

In the laboratory, eggs are fertilized with the sperm. In the subsequent few days, the embryo(s) are monitored for growth and development.

Embryo Transfer

The last step is transferring the best embryo(s) into the uterus. This step is a short painless procedure that is similar to a Pap smear. Any extra high-quality embryos will be cryopreserved for later use.
