In our clinic we have all modern and high-performance programs for artificial fertilization.

1. In-vitro fertilization (IVF)

IVF includes severeal stages:

• Hormonal stimulation of follicular growth inside ovaries (stimulation of superovulation);
• Puncture of the follicle with further oocyte extraction from it;
• IVF of the oocyte with sperm in the laboratory facilities;
• Embryo transplantation in the uterus area.

This procedure usually takes approximately 4-5 weeks.

The indication for IVF implementation is therapy-proof fertility or possibility that overcoming the problem would be better than using of other methods. The IVF method is practically universal. More that 30 years have passed since the first child was born as the result of the infertility treatment. For today, there are more than 3 millions people all over the world that have born thanks to this method. This is an oocyte's in-vitro with the natural (or donor) sperm outside mother's body. Cultivation of embryos, their monitoring and leader introduction into the uterus area.

ICSI - Implementation of sperm directly into the oocyte's cytoplasm using special manipulators.

This method is used in case of male infertility. Sperm for the ICSI can be obtained from ejaculate or from a testicle by МЕSА or ТЕSA operations. These programs are variations of the ICSI program. Sperm is required for injection into the oocyte and can be extracted by the puncture of testicle (ТЕSА) or testicular appendage (МЕSА). Before the surgical operation, one must consult with an andrologist.

Indications for ICSI:

• azoospermatism - absence of spermatozoa in the ejaculate;
• oligozoospermatism - concentration of spermatozoa is lower than 2 millions in 1 milliliter;
• asthenozoospermia - less than 1 million active spermatozoon in 1 milliliter;
• clinically significant amount of antisperm antibodies in the ejaculate (MAR test more than 50%);
• combined pathology of the sperm;
• unsatisfactory IVF of the oocyte in the previous ECF procedure or its total absence.

Cryoconservation:

Our clinic has achieved considerable success in embryo freezing. 50 - 70% of sperm continue their normal development after defrosting. If well-developing embryos is collected more than required, others can be refrigerated in liquid nitrogen and kept for unlimited amount of time. Refrigerated embryos can be used after unsuccessful IVF procedure or after childbirth if the patients want to get another baby in the future.

Donation:

Donation of the sperm or oocyte is strictly anonymous! Information about donor's identity is always kept confidential.

Donation of the sperm allows to have a baby in the families where husband's spermatogenesis is totally exhausted. The same method can be used in single healthy women of reproductive age. Furthermore, this program is wonderful solution for families where the husband has a risk of hereditary diseases.

Donation of the oocytes is a program provided for women whose haven't oocytes or who have a risk for bearing a child with hereditary pathologies.
