IVF in India – Modern Fertility Solutions with High Success Rates
What Is IVF?
IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) is a procedure where eggs and sperm are brought together in a laboratory environment to create embryos. Once healthy embryos develop, one or more of them are transferred into the uterus for pregnancy to occur. IVF allows specialists to bypass many reproductive challenges and increase the chances of conception.

Types of IVF Treatments in India
India offers multiple IVF approaches designed to match each couple’s medical condition and reproductive goals.
Standard IVF | Eggs and sperm are combined naturally in a lab dish. |
ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) | A single sperm is directly injected into each egg to improve fertilization, ideal for severe male infertility. |
Natural Cycle IVF | Uses a woman’s single naturally produced egg without stimulating medications. |
IVF with Donor Eggs | Suitable for women with low egg reserve or poor egg quality. |
IVF with Donor Sperm | Helps couples facing genetic or sperm-related challenges. |
Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET) | Embryos preserved from previous cycles are thawed and placed in the uterus. |
IVF with PGT/PGS (Genetic Testing) | Embryos are examined to avoid genetic abnormalities before transfer. |
Pre-IVF Evaluation and Testing
Before beginning IVF, couples receive a series of assessments to build a safe and effective treatment plan.
For Women
- Ovarian reserve testing (AMH, AFC)
- Hormonal evaluation
- Pelvic ultrasound
- Uterus and fallopian tube assessment
For Men
- Semen analysis
- Sperm function tests
- Hormone testing (if required)
These evaluations help determine the dosage of medications and the best IVF strategy.
How IVF Works – Step-By-Step Process
1. Fertility Medication & Monitoring
Medications stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple mature eggs. Regular ultrasounds help track growth.
2. Egg Collection
This is a short, comfortable procedure where fully mature eggs are collected with the help of ultrasound.
3. Fertilization in the Lab
Eggs are fertilized using standard IVF or advanced ICSI methods depending on fertility needs.
4. Embryo Development
Embryos are carefully monitored for 3–5 days in controlled lab conditions.
5. Embryo Transfer
A healthy embryo is placed into the uterus using a simple, needle-free method.
6. Confirmation
A blood test is performed 12–14 days after transfer to confirm pregnancy.
