Vancouver IVF: How long does it take?



introduction

With the continuous development of science and technology, IVF has become a way for many infertile couples to realize their reproductive dreams. As one of the largest cities in Canada, Vancouver has many internationally renowned IVF hospitals. So, how long does it take for Vancouver IVF? This article will elaborate on this from four aspects.

1. Select hospitals and doctors

Vancouver has many world-famous IVF hospitals, such as Genome Medical Center, Vancouver IVF Center (VFC), and Reproductive Medical Center (PCRM). Before starting IVF treatment, couples need to choose appropriate hospitals and doctors, which is a crucial step in the whole process. First, couples can screen hospitals through online evaluation and understanding of the hospital's professional level and technical equipment. Then, they can go to the hospital for consultation in person to understand the specific procedures, costs and treatment plans. Finally, choose a suitable doctor for consultation and treatment.

2. Assessment and preparation

After selecting the hospital and doctor, the doctor and the couple will conduct a series of evaluations to determine the most suitable treatment scheme for them. These assessments usually include physical examination, medical history investigation, reproductive system examination, blood and genetic examination, etc. According to the evaluation results, the doctor will develop a personalized treatment plan and explain the details of the whole process, drug treatment, egg retrieval, embryo transfer and other steps to the couple. Couples need to understand and be prepared for all the steps, time and medication required for treatment.

3. Drug treatment and egg retrieval

Drug therapy is an important step in the process of IVF. Doctors will give female patients ovulation promoting drugs to help them grow more eggs. These drugs usually need to be used continuously for several weeks, and the specific time will depend on individual conditions. When the eggs mature, the doctor will make an appointment to collect them. This operation usually requires general anesthesia, and the process of egg retrieval usually takes only 15-20 minutes, but the patient needs to rest for a few hours after the operation to recover. Then, the egg will combine with the sperm in the laboratory to form an embryo.

4. Embryo transfer and subsequent observation

Once the embryo is formed, the doctor will select the embryo most likely to be successfully implanted for transfer. This process is usually simple and can be completed in the doctor's office. The whole transplant process only takes a few minutes, after which the patient can go home to rest. After embryo transfer, patients need a period of rest and observation. About 10-14 days later, the doctor will conduct a blood test to see if there is any pregnancy. If the test results are positive, the couple will realize their dream of IVF.

summary

The IVF process in Vancouver usually requires a lot of time and patience. From the selection of hospitals and doctors, to evaluation and preparation, to drug treatment and egg retrieval, and finally to embryo transfer and observation, each step requires a certain amount of time. Therefore, the whole process may take several months to complete. However, as long as couples maintain a positive and optimistic attitude and work closely with doctors, they will have the opportunity to realize their IVF dream.
