In vitro fertilization (IVF) means fertilizing eggs with sperm in a laboratory, then placing an embryo in the uterus. It is one of the main treatments for couples having difficulty conceiving. At Dr. Mehmet Koç's office, your treatment is planned around your own health and goals.
How IVF Works
- Consultation: Dr. Koç reviews your medical history, fertility health and goals, then creates your treatment plan.
- Ovarian stimulation: You take fertility medication so your ovaries produce several eggs. We track your progress with blood tests and ultrasound scans.
- Egg retrieval: Mature eggs are collected from the ovaries in a minimally invasive procedure under light anesthesia.
- Fertilization: Eggs and sperm are combined in the laboratory. If needed, ICSI may be used to help fertilization.
- Embryo development: The embryos grow in the laboratory for several days. We then choose the embryos best suited for transfer, based on how they develop and their quality.
- Embryo transfer: One or more embryos are placed in the uterus, guided by ultrasound.
- Pregnancy test: A blood test about two weeks after the transfer shows whether you are pregnant. We continue to support and monitor you during this time.
