Выбор на клинику пал из- за хорошей диагностики, предложенного врача и в целом отношения во время подготовки к поездке
У меня сложилось очень хорошее впечатление после первой поездки в клинику. Выбор на клинику пал из- за хорошей диагностики, предложенного врача и в целом отношения во время подготовки к поездке. Понравилось, что есть куратор который все время на связи и организовывает необходимые анализы, отвечает на вопросы, говорит на русском. У меня -Яна, она все организовала быстро, эффективно и видно, что ей не все равно. В клинике очень хорошая диагностика. Мне очень понравился врач- доктор Мерчик. Очень конкретный, знающий, с большим опытом. Сказал, что любая программа будет строиться индивидуально после анализа моих результатов, но в процессе можно будет внести изменения. Видно, что Клиника не боится испортить статистику и брать сложных пациентов как я. У меня очень низкий запас яйцеклеток. Сейчас жду второй поездки и надеюсь на беременность.

Good day. I liked everything. Fast and affordable. The girl liked the doctor and our guide very much. We are only interested in a positive end result! A good relationship for good money is great, but I repeat once again that we applied for the result, and I hope it will please us. We were not in the wards, as the trip was one day

Everything is fine. One thing we didn't like was when we came with my husband, we stood for a while until the third time the girl from the reception took the time to pay attention to what a person wants to ask and hear the answer. It was ignored. This is one thing that I did not like at all!!!!

Our In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) Techniques: What Suits You Best?

When considering In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), it’s important to understand the different techniques and which is best suited for you. Here’s a concise comparison of popular options:

IVF with Gender Selection

IVF with Gender Selection is a fertility treatment enabling parents to choose the sex of their child through assisted reproductive technology.

Pros: Offers a 99% accuracy rate in gender selection. Allows families to balance the gender of their children for personal or medical reasons. Enhances chances of conception by identifying genetically healthy embryos.
Cons: May involve ethical concerns related to gender preference. The process might require additional fertility treatments, increasing complexity and stress for some couples.
Effectiveness: Success rates for embryo transfer are approximately 60% per cycle.
Duration: The procedure takes 4-6 weeks.
Recovery: Recovery period is 1-2 days.
Best for: Families desiring specific gender for medical or personal reasons, or those with hereditary gender-linked conditions.

IVF package price

IVF package price refers to the total cost associated with undergoing in vitro fertilization, which involves fertilizing an egg outside the body and implanting the embryo into the uterus.

Pros: IVF treatment can bypass certain fertility issues like blocked fallopian tubes. It offers a 40% success rate per cycle for women under 35.
Cons: Artificial insemination can be expensive, and multiple cycles might be needed. The need for hormonal stimulation can cause side effects such as bloating and mood swings.
Effectiveness: Success rates range from 30% to 40% per cycle, depending on age and health.
Duration: 4-6 weeks per cycle.
Recovery: 1-2 days after egg retrieval.
Best for: Women with blocked tubes, unexplained infertility, or male factor infertility. Suitable for women under 35 for higher success rates.

Pharmacological stimulation for IVF

This involves using medications to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs for retrieval during fertility treatment.

Pros: Enhances egg production, increasing the chance of successful embryo fertilization. Provides flexibility in scheduling the embryo transfer. Can lead to a higher success rate in obtaining viable embryos.
Cons: May cause side effects such as bloating and mood swings. Requires regular monitoring and injections, which can be inconvenient.
Effectiveness: Success rates can vary, but generally range from 20% to 35% per cycle.
Duration: The procedure typically takes 2-3 weeks.
Recovery: Recovery takes 1-2 days post egg retrieval.
Best for: Women with low ovarian reserve or those undergoing IVF for the first time.

What is in vitro fertilization?

In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a complex of the procedures for infertility treatment when an egg is combined with sperm outside the body — in vitro.   

IVF has been used worldwide for almost 40 years. For many couples, this is the only way to have children. The procedure helps even in cases when natural conception is almost impossible.

Who is the best candidate for IVF in Poland?

In vitro fertilization in Poland is the best option for patients with infertility. Indications for IVF are:

  • tubal infertility because of the absence of fallopian tubes or their obstruction
  • infertility associated with endometriosis
  • endocrine diseases that lead to ovulation disorders
  • hereditary diseases (hemophilia, etc.)
  • male infertility 
  • premature ovarian failure.

What are the contraindications for the procedure?

IVF is contraindicated for persons with:

  • severe mental and physical diseases
  • abnormalities of the reproductive organs
  • benign uterine tumors 
  • cancer.

What is the in vitro fertilization process?

Specialists perform in vitro fertilization in 8 steps:

  1. infertility diagnosis
  2. preparation for the procedure
  3. ovulation stimulation
  4. follicles puncture
  5. egg fertilization
  6. embryo cultivation
  7. embryo transfer
  8. pregnancy control and support.

In vitro fertilization including the infertility diagnosis and preparation for the procedure takes about 2 months. The duration of the IVF procedure itself depends on the protocol type and lasts 25-45 days. During this period, all steps are carried out from ovarian stimulation, fertilization, embryo transfer, to monitoring implantation and final confirmation of pregnancy.

How to diagnose infertility?

Infertility is diagnosed when a woman cannot become pregnant for 1 year of regular sexual activity without the use of contraception. If a woman is more than 35 years old, this period is cut down to 6 months. In this case, it is necessary to consult a reproductive specialist.

There are a lot of factors that can cause infertility. Causes of infertility can be associated with health problems in both women and men. To define the exact cause of the disorder, the couple should undergo complete body examination and consult with a specialist.

What is preparation for the procedure in Poland?

IVF in Poland is a complex and multi-step procedure that requires both physical and moral preparation. During the consultation, the doctor always recommends preparing the body for pregnancy — quitting all bad habits, controlling physical activity, and keeping a healthy eating plan.

To make sure the IVF procedure is possible, both a man and a woman must undergo examinations and pass tests.

What is ovulation stimulation and how does it work?

Ovulation stimulation/induction (in vitro maturation — IVM) is the process of ovulation boosting by medication. To achieve the maturation of eggs number, the doctors prescribe daily injections of gonadotropins — hormones that lead to the maturation of several eggs at once in contrast with the common menstrual cycle when only one egg is maturated. 

The duration of this step depends on the type of induction protocol. The dose of stimulative drugs is selected by the doctor individually. Ovulation stimulation is carried out under the supervision of a specialist.

What diagnostics are necessary?

Tests for men:

  • semen analysis (spermogram)
  • urethral smear
  • smears infection test
  • blood tests for HIV, hepatitis B, and C, syphilis.

Tests for women:

  • consultation with an endocrinologist
  • hysterosalpingogram (test of tubal patency)
  • hysterolaparoscopy or laparoscopy
  • coagulogram (blood clotting test)
  • general urine analysis
  • blood test for syphilis, HIV, hepatitis B and C
  • blood test for hormones
  • TORCH screen 
  • Pap test
  • scrape or brush cytology
  • smears infection test
  • consultation with a therapist
  • chest X-ray
  • ECG (electrocardiogram)
  • Ultrasound of the mammary glands
  • consultation with a gynecologist. 

The diagnostic plan is developed and modulated by a specialist. If necessary, the doctor may prescribe additional examinations.

What role does the follicles puncture play in the IVF process?

When the follicles grow to maturity, it is necessary to make a special injection to introduce a trigger for the final egg maturation. Follicle puncture and egg production are carried out in 34-38 hours after the trigger introduction. Only after this step, it is possible to obtain mature eggs.

The procedure is performed under general anesthesia and is monitored by ultrasound. The doctor uses a special needle to collect follicular fluid. After that, the embryologist selects eggs for further fertilization. The more eggs you get, the better result you can achieve.

The obtained eggs and sperm cells are placed in a special incubator where the temperature is 37°C and humidity is high. In these conditions the fertilization takes place.

In some cases, embryologists apply an intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). Using this technique, the embryologist selects the most qualitative spermatozoon and implants it into the egg cytoplasm. The procedure is performed if the quality of the ejaculate is low or the frozen eggs are used.

How is in vitro fertilization in Poland carried out?

The day after fertilization in Poland, the embryologist determines how many eggs are fertilized and monitors the development of the embryos for several days. In a few days after fertilization, the most qualitative embryo is transferred to the uterus. The transfer is carried out through the cervical canal using a catheter. The procedure is painless.

What are the IVF methods?

IVF in Poland has several types and the specialist selects the procedure method depending on the infertility cause. The basic IVF technique is described above but it is often supplemented by additional technologies.

ICSI — involves the artificial introduction of sperm into the egg using a very thin needle. Usually, ICSI is used if the partner's sperm is motionless and are not able to fertilize the egg on their own. 

PICSI — a modification of the ICSI method when only mature sperm are selected. Before providing PICSI a special test is carried out.

IVM — involves the removal of immature eggs. They mature in vitro, in laboratory conditions. It allows patients to avoid hormonal stimulation. It is also used if stimulation does not give a result.

Assisted hatching — a technology that facilitates the implantation of an embryo into the uterus. The embryo is surrounded by a thin coverage, which is destroyed before the implantation. Hatching is the artificial destruction of this coverage.

What is the success rate of in vitro fertilization?

According to statistics of Dunya IVF Clinic, the success index of in vitro fertilization is:

  • 56% — in women of 20-29 years old
  • 51% — in women aged 30-34
  • 45% — in patients of 35-39 years old
  • 14% — in women over 40.
