How long does Hefei IVF take?

IVF is a kind of assisted reproductive technology, which can help couples who cannot conceive in a natural way to realize their reproductive dreams. As a first tier city in China, Hefei also has advanced facilities and professional medical teams in the field of IVF. However, how long does it take for Hefei IVF? Next, we will elaborate from many aspects.

Medical examination and screening stage

Before IVF treatment, couples need to undergo a series of medical examinations to assess their physical condition and fertility possibilities. These usually include women's uterus and ovaries, and men's sperm analysis. In addition, couples also need to carry out gene screening to exclude the risk of some hereditary diseases.

The whole medical examination and screening phase usually takes 2-3 months. The main purpose of this process is to ensure that the physical health of the couple can adapt to the IVF treatment and improve the success rate of the treatment.

Drug treatment and egg collection stage

Once the medical examination and screening phase is completed, the couple will enter the drug treatment phase. The purpose of drug treatment is to promote ovarian ovulation and increase the number of eggs. Usually, women need to inject a hormone drug every day to stimulate the ovaries to produce more eggs.

The treatment process usually takes 10-14 days. During this period, couples need to go to the hospital every day to receive drug injections and monitor the growth of eggs. Once the egg is mature, the doctor will perform an egg collection operation. This process usually takes 20-30 minutes. After the operation, the couple can go home to rest.

In vitro fertilization and embryo transfer

Within a few hours after egg collection, doctors will combine sperm and eggs in the laboratory for in vitro fertilization. After successful fertilization, the embryo will continue to be cultured in the culture dish for 2-6 days.

After the embryo culture is completed, the doctor will select the embryo with the most development potential for transplantation. Embryo transfer is a simple and painless process that usually takes only a few minutes. After transplantation, couples need to wait another 10-14 days for pregnancy testing.

Summary

To sum up, the treatment process of Hefei IVF usually takes 3-4 months. Among them, the medical examination and screening phase requires 2-3 months, the drug treatment and egg collection phase requires 10-14 days, and the IVF and embryo transfer phase requires 2-6 days, plus the waiting time for pregnancy testing.

However, it should be noted that each couple's situation is unique and the length of treatment may vary. Some couples may need more time for medical examination and medication. Therefore, it is best to consult a doctor and develop a personalized treatment plan before IVF treatment.

Finally, as an advanced city, Hefei has many professional medical institutions and expert teams in the field of IVF. Couples can choose Hefei Maternal and Child Health Hospital, Hefei Reproductive Hospital and other formal medical institutions for IVF treatment to obtain the best medical services.
