About the clinic

IVF with gender selection at Cyprus IVF Hospital in Famagusta, North Cyprus, allows parents to choose the sex of their baby through genetic testing. The hospital holds ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 certifications, reflecting international safety standards. With success rates reaching 70% to 80%, the facility offers medical expertise and advanced laboratory technology for family balancing.

Gender Selection and Genetic Testing

The clinic uses Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT) to screen embryos for chromosomal health and sex. This method allows the medical team to identify the gender before the embryo transfer takes place. The procedure helps families achieve balance while also screening for specific genetic disorders. The hospital maintains a diverse donor network for egg, sperm, and embryo donation with no waiting times. Treatment is available for women up to age 55.

Advanced Embryology Laboratory

The lab uses several tools to improve the chances of a successful pregnancy. These technologies focus on selecting the healthiest cells and monitoring development without interruption:

IMSI: Sperm selection at 6000x magnification to find the best quality cells.
MIRI time-lapse incubator: Continuous monitoring of embryos in a stable environment.
ZyMōt microfluidic selection: A method to isolate the most motile sperm.
Embryo Glue: A specialized solution used to help the embryo stick to the uterine wall.
Hamilton Thorne Laser: A system used for assisted hatching to help the embryo implant.

Medical Expertise

Dr. Serap Kağan leads the IVF department with over 30 years of experience in obstetrics and gynecology. She is recognized as the first certified female IVF specialist in North Cyprus. Working alongside her is Dr. İçten Balık Kıvançlı, an IVF specialist with over 10 years of experience in the field. The team follows the European Fertility Society Patient-Centred Care Programme to manage the treatment process.

What to Expect

A standard IVF cycle typically lasts around 21 days. If egg donation is part of the plan, the process takes approximately two weeks. Patients receive a free initial consultation and assistance with airport transfers. The hospital has a 4.7 rating from over 100 patient reviews, highlighting its focus on patient support and technical accuracy.

We received our happy news. I hope that everyone who wants to become a parent on this path will experience the same happiness. After 2 unsuccessful IVF treatments, our 3rd attempt—done with you—gave us the world in your very first try. A successful team knows how to make you happy in every way. We would like to thank our coordinator, Ms. Esra, for explaining everything to us on this journey down to the very smallest details, without getting tired or making us bored, and without leaving any of our questions unanswered for even a moment. We also want to thank our embryologists, Ms. Selen and Ms. Yeliz, for their sincerity and warmth—they made it feel like a real family environment. We’d also like to thank our driver friends, who accompanied us from the day we arrived until the day we left. We would also like to thank every member of the Cyprus IVF family behind the scenes, whose names we don’t know, for including us among them. This is the only organization I can recommend to everyone with a clear conscience for having a child. 🙏🙏🥰🥰

We had an absolutely amazing experience with Cypress IVF. We did 3 rounds of IVF with donor sperm. All I can say is I’m glad we didn’t give up because we successfully delivered our rainbow baby 2 weeks ago! Although this process can be a testimony of faith, everyone there made sure we were well informed and were always there for us with kindness every step of the way! Grace, you are an absolute angel and you have definitely earned a place in our hearts forever. From your knowledge to your welcoming demeanor, you have always answered all 10000 of my questions with patience and I can’t thank you enough for the care you gave us, even after our confirmed pregnancy! As for the facility/practice, we loved the private rooms, the overall cost, the convenience of everything being coordinated (donor, hotel, driver, labs, etc.) and the vast experience of the doctors and staff! We will definitely return when we are ready to expand our family and can’t wait to work with you all again!!!

I would like to express my deepest gratitude and appreciation to this wonderful medical facility and to all the staff who accompanied and cared for me with professionalism and humanity. From the very start of my treatment, I felt cared for, attentive, and reassured. The way the refined staff treated me and their care for every detail had a profound impact on me. Thank you to every doctor, nurse, and everyone who was part of this journey. Thank you because you didn’t just provide me with medical care—you gave me a sense of safety and trust at a time when I needed them most. I am truly grateful from the bottom of my heart. I wish you continued success and good fortune, and I hope you will always be a reason to reassure the hearts of patients and to create hope in their lives.

I had a great experience at this hospital. The staff were very friendly and accommodating of my schedule. The customer service was great too. The staff, especially Sinem, are continually responsive to emails and WhatsApp messages, which makes your entire experience better, and you feel well taken care of. The hospital can organize your entire stay in North Cyprus, including airport transfers and the hospital visit, and the entire process is incredibly smooth and seamless. A great destination for all your fertility needs. I would definitely recommend this place to friends and family.

I’m truly grateful to Cyprus IVF Hospital and the whole team for everything they have done for us. Going through IVF is not an easy journey, especially when you are doing treatment in another country. But from the beginning, I felt that I was in good hands. The doctors and staff were professional, patient and supportive, and they always took my questions seriously. A special thank you to Aman. She has helped me so much throughout this journey. My English is not good, so sometimes I need to ask many questions or confirm things more than once, but she is always patient with me and makes communication so much easier. I really appreciate that. And most importantly, our treatment was successful and I am now pregnant. ❤️ It is still very early, but reaching this point already means so much to us. Thank you Cyprus IVF Hospital for helping us get here. I will always remember the kindness and support we received during such an important time in our lives. ❤️

It was an incredible experience. I had had implantation failures during my previous IVF (PMA) journeys, and given my age—46—I no longer believed in it. We went in March to create the embryos and, two months later, I returned for the transfer. To my great surprise, I was pregnant! The medical team is very humane, warm, and efficient. Everything went quickly and without any waiting delays. I also took advantage of my stay to do some sightseeing on the island.

I cannot thank Cyprus IVF Hospital enough for the incredible care and support I received throughout my IVF journey. A very special thank you to Rojda, our personal nurse, who has been absolutely amazing from start to finish. Rojda was always supportive, helpful, caring, and compassionate during such an emotional and difficult time. Her communication was always clear, fast, and reassuring, and she genuinely showed so much love and care every step of the way. She guided me through everything with patience and kindness, which made such a huge difference to my experience. I am truly so thankful for all of her help and support. Thank you so much Rojda and thank you Cyprus IVF Hospital for making this journey feel so much less overwhelming. Highly recommended!
