General cycle of IVF treatment in Kazakhstan
Kazakhstan is one of the first countries in Asia to start IVF technology. The IVF treatment cycle generally includes the following aspects: diagnosis, preparation for pregnancy, egg collection and in vitro fertilization, embryo culture and selection, embryo transfer, pregnancy monitoring, etc. The following details the treatment cycle of test tube babies in Kazakhstan.
diagnosis
First of all, both husband and wife need to go to a professional reproductive hospital in Kazakhstan for diagnosis. The doctor will carry out relevant examinations on both the husband and wife, including reproductive function examination, medical history investigation and physical examination, to determine whether it is suitable for IVF treatment.
Doctors will develop personalized treatment plans based on the examination results, including drug treatment, assisted reproductive technology and surgical treatment. After the scheme is determined, both the husband and wife need to sign the informed consent form and pay the corresponding fees.
The whole diagnosis phase generally takes about 1 month, and the specific time will vary according to individual conditions.
Preparation for pregnancy
After the diagnosis, both husband and wife need to prepare for pregnancy. This includes regulating life, adjusting diet, stopping or replacing drugs that may have adverse effects on the fetus, etc.
During the preparation for pregnancy, the doctor will make the next treatment plan according to the women's menstrual cycle and ovarian function. This may include the use of ovulation promoting drugs and ultrasound examination.
Pregnancy preparation generally lasts for 2-3 months, and the specific time will vary according to personal conditions.
Egg collection and in vitro fertilization
The next step is egg collection and in vitro fertilization. This process is usually carried out on the second day before the female ovulation cycle.
First, doctors will use ultrasound guided ovarian puncture to collect eggs. This process usually takes about 20-30 minutes. The eggs collected will be sent to the laboratory immediately.
In the laboratory, doctors will combine sperm and eggs for in vitro fertilization. The quality of sperm and egg will determine whether special techniques are needed to assist fertilization, such as ICSI (single sperm injection).
The whole egg collection and in vitro fertilization stage generally lasts for 3-5 days, depending on personal conditions and laboratory operations.
Embryo culture and selection, embryo transfer and pregnancy monitoring
After in vitro fertilization, the embryos will be cultured in the laboratory. Doctors will select the best embryo for transplantation according to the development and quality of the embryo.
Embryo transfer is usually carried out 3 to 5 days after fertilization. Doctors will use a catheter to place the embryo into a woman's uterus to help the embryo implant. Afterwards, the doctor will conduct pregnancy monitoring to check whether the embryo is successfully embedded and developed into a fetus.
The whole stage of embryo culture and selection, embryo transfer and pregnancy monitoring generally takes 1-2 months, depending on personal conditions and embryonic development.
summary
In general, the IVF treatment cycle in Kazakhstan generally takes about 6-8 months. This includes diagnosis, preparation for pregnancy, egg collection and in vitro fertilization, embryo culture and selection, embryo transfer and pregnancy monitoring. The time of each stage will vary according to personal circumstances. But through scientific diagnosis and treatment, IVF technology provides an opportunity for infertile couples to hope for a healthy baby.
