What the fertilization and embryo development process is like, the importance of preimplantation genetic testing, an embryo transfer and the two-week wait and monitoring.
This is a helpful video. I'm 46 and going through IVF. We were able to only get one egg, and got it fertilized. I get it transferred tomorrow and hope for implantation. 🙏🏻🙏🏻 I'm also in Egypt, so donor eggs aren't an option. I'm hoping for this miracle to continue. 🙏🏻
@@sumairanaveed6030 Sadly I did not. We're going to try again though, but in America. It will cost more, but there's more options there and vitamins and medicine will be better there. I also know more now then I did before, so hopefully being more prepared/educated will help.
These videos were extremely helpful! I will start my IVF journey next month and I was so nervous and overwhelmed before watching these videos and now I can definitely say I am ready to go through it and hopefully get my miracle baby .!

@@serahmushota2114 The number of injections will vary for each patient based on their specific protocol which is set by their doctor. The reason it isn't the same for everyone is that everyone responds differently to these medications, and patients also can have different goals and diagnoses. So, unfortunately, there's no set number of injections that a patient will administer.
Putting that single good looking sperm on the egg as he said is called ICSI. And because is considered a special technique it cost $800 to do in Australia (depending on were u do your ivf can be more or less). I'm in my 2nd cycle and im happy we went with his 1st description of a drop of sperm on a dish with the eggs. No extra cost to the already 10k treatment that it is ivf. Cos those 800 that i paid on the 1st cycle wont be reimburse with Medicare or Private. So hopefully u wont need ICSI
Thank you for your information I did ivf oct 22 in Mexico and did the 15 day wait and took my test after 15 day and had a positive test. 5 days later he said it was negative is that possible
@@irenes78765 Right! We work with a lot of doctors and it's always just the best when we can see how much they really put into this for their patients!
Is this possible for poor quality of oocyte. But Dr got 3 matured eggs during egg pickup .. is there aby problem to conceive... Coz of poor quality of oocyte
I’m having PGT testing, and on day 5 I have 3 embryos in the blastocyst vitrification. I’m trying to figure out what that means exactly by surfing through CZcams which I found this video. Thank you for this information ❤
Thanks for the question! That one, however, is definitely one that you'd need to discuss with your doctor as everyone is different and there's no substitute for personalized care from you physician.
Thanks for reaching out! Unfortunately that will depend on a lot of different factors - some of which will be unknown until you actually have embryos. If you use PGT-A prior to the transfer you're doctor will be able to tell you a range with a little more confidence.
Donor eggs are a great option for those who choose/need them! There's a lot to be said about epigenetics and carrying donor eggs, so this is a great conversation to have with your doctor
@Progyny thanks for the response, however my main concern, is the biological connection with the baby from a doner egg.?.if there is any, for example any resemblance,
Hi @superluckao - what you're seeing in this video is sperm being injected into an egg to create embryos. The embryos can then be genetically tested, and a healthy embryo can be transferred. Any remaining embryos can be frozen and held in storage until needed.
Its crazy how difficult it can be. Shit im glad im here on earth ha. My girl is 37 im 36 in november. Been trying ovulation meds and have hae 0 contraceptives for about 20 months or so and nothing😢. So considering IVF. Just frustrating
We hear you. This process can be emotionally taxing, hopefully you feel that you're not alone. Unfortunately this is all somewhat common, and lots of people are going through this - we hope you can find support networks that work for you
The spoken portions of this video is informative but if you want to improve it, please have the technicians wearing gloves during cell culture procedures. Ooops.
@@julieanntorcuator1049Hello!! I am fantastic so far! I start my progesterone in oil injections tonight. We have 2 embryos a boy & girl, we’re letting our physician choose which one to transfer 04/24! So nervous & excited. 😊
@@julieanntorcuator1049 They were able to retrieve 32 eggs, of those 25 were ICSI. Of those 16 were fertilized then of those 2 made it to blast and were PGTA tested & euploid. Boy & girl. 💙💗 I start progesterone shots today & then we’re transferring which ever one the physician chooses 04/24. ☺️
Thanks for the question! There have been some outliers, but IVF at a more advanced age can carry considerable risk. While there is no clear and set limit to age and IVF a decision on whether IVF is suitable for someone may be made on a case-by-case basis with a doctor, taking into consideration whether the patient is healthy enough for pregnancy.

Did you conceive

I'm also 46 but my egg are weak but getting a donor for my implantation. I pray 🙏 hoping for a successful Amen
Great video! I love to see how enthusiastic you are about your work! Enthusiasm makes great professionals ☺️
Thank you! Work is fun when you love what you do!
Wonderful video! Thank you
Thank you so much for this very informative and very valuable sharing!!!!! Now I understand how ivf works.
@arksonmei we're very happy to help!
Wow what an intricate and beautiful process. I guess there aren't any open source ivf kits on the internet.
These videos were extremely helpful!

Are Teratozoospermia (sperm)can be used for Icsi to fertilize the egg?
My tube were tied how hard will it take to get pregnant.
I too am fascinated by the prospect of playing god and witnessing the biological processes unfold before my wretched eyes.

The egg didn't fertilize normally
Me too. I did egg retrieval yesterday and wait for thr lab news. How many embryos to grow and pass blastocyst stage

Can one alternate gel with injection progesterone after fresh embryo transfer?
Thanks for the question! That one, however, is definitely one that you'd need to discuss with your doctor as everyone is different and there's no substitute for personalized care from you physician.
Thank you for this video ..What are chances of transferring one embryo at a time .im 32 years old

Fertilization rate in ivf over all
Thank you doctors,.please let me known should donor egg be used ?
Is there any blood relation between the baby and the mother?
Thanks.

You raised a very good point dear
What happens to the other embryos?
Hi @superluckao - what you're seeing in this video is sperm being injected into an egg to create embryos. The embryos can then be genetically tested, and a healthy embryo can be transferred. Any remaining embryos can be frozen and held in storage until needed.
Is the egg retrieved vaginally or abdominally?
Thanks for the question - Typically, transvaginal ultrasound aspiration is used to retrieve eggs

Why do eggs fail to fertilizer and collapse on injection of sperm
