In vitro fertilization, IVF – IVF in Pakistan performs a laboratory technique in which the egg is fertilized outside the uterus. In Vitro Fertilization is the most effective way to deal with infertility.
Basic IVF cycle
IVF usually takes place using intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), when the sperm is injected directly into the egg. The advantage is that with this method, only one sperm is enough.
After a specific time, the fertilized egg is cultured and placed in the uterus, where, ideally, it attaches and continues to develop.
IVF can take place using:
- the couple’s eggs and sperm
- partner’s eggs and the donor’s sperm
- Darkyne’s eggs and partner’s sperm
- donor’s eggs and donor’s sperm
The average success rate – of IVF
The success rate of IVF cycles ranges between 50-60% per cycle. However, it is necessary to emphasize the difference in success in individual age categories. While it is very high up to the age of 30 – more than 60%, after the age of 40, it reaches the limit of 15%.
Native and soft cycle
In the native and soft cycle, the procedure is similar to classic IVF. The difference is that with the native process, in vitro, fertilization takes place without hormonal stimulation, and with the soft cycle, the hormonal stimulation is shorter, and the doses are lower than with classic inspiration.
A native cycle is in vitro fertilization without hormonal stimulation, in which the doctor removes an egg from a naturally matured follicle.
The soft process proceeds similarly, but the patient is stimulated hormonally before the egg is released. However, the doses are lower, and the stimulation is significantly shorter than standard IVF.
The following procedure for both types of cycles is the same as for an IVF cycle. In vitro fertilization, embryo cultivation, and subsequent transfer to the uterus will occur in the laboratory.
The average success rate of the procedure – the success rate of soft cycles is approximately 15-17% per stimulation. The success rate after three cycles is approximately roundabout 30%. There are no exact statistics on the success rate of native processes; in general, the success rate, in this case, is relatively low – less than 10% per cycle.
When is the procedure recommended?
Due to their low success rate, we rarely recommend native cycles to patients. Patients who refuse to undergo classical hormonal stimulation or cryopreservation (freezing) of embryos and want to fertilize only a few eggs decide for soft cycles. Also, in individual cases, smooth processes are suitable for older patients or patients who do not respond optimally to classical stimulation.

How to ideally handle the artificial insemination – IVF cycle?
Be positive and believe in success. At the same time, however, expect failure because even IVF treatment is not 100 percent. Even after defeat, however, you don’t have to give up on your dream of having your child. The world will not collapse; we can often set up infertility treatment based on the first failure so that the next cycle will be successful.
Prepare yourself and your partner for mood swings. It belongs to that. You have to hold each other. It’s not easy for anyone. Drink plenty of fluids; focus on that. Sufficient fluids are the best prevention and treatment of hyperstimulation syndrome. Spend time with friends, and don’t isolate yourself.
Exercise if it suits you.
Most activities (except for long runs and rotational movements) are not inappropriate. If in doubt, consult a doctor. Believe that we are doing our best for you and your embryos, and IVF Cost in Pakistan depends on the treatment of GENOVA CLINIC. Your trust in us is essential.
