Introduction
  • Test tube baby treatment is just another term for
    In-Vitro Fertilization. IVF is the most common
    and the most effective treatment for infertile
    women.
  • It is normally decided to go for this treatment
    at a test-tube baby center when a woman is unable
    to get pregnant naturally. There can be a host of
    different causes for that. Problems in the mans
    sperm like low sperm count or low motility and
    problems in women like ovulation disorders,
    premature ovarian failure, and uterine fibroids.

How does a test-tube baby center do it?
  • Roughly there are 5 steps in this procedure and
    they can be explained as follows
  • In the beginning, a medication drug is
    administered which suppresses the normal
    menstrual cycle. It is generally given in the
    form of a daily injection and it helps in the
    stimulation process which is the second step in
    the procedure.
  • The second step involves stimulating the ovaries
    to produce more eggs. Fertility drugs containing
    Follicle Stimulating Hormone are administered
    which stimulates the production of eggs so that
    the ovaries produce more eggs than they normally
    produce. This process can be monitored with the
    vaginal ultrasound scans.

  • When the eggs have been formed, they are
    extracted through a minor surgical procedure
    called as follicular aspiration. A device is
    inserted into the vagina with the help of which a
    very thin needle is inserted into the ovary and
    the eggs are sucked with a suction device
    connected to the needle. Eggs are extracted from
    both the ovaries with this procedure. During one
    cycle of egg extraction, the doctors may extract
    up to 15 eggs so that the changes of pregnancy
    increase.
  • The extracted eggs and the sperm (already
    extracted) are brought into contact with each
    other in a container and it is kept in an
    environmentally controlled chamber. This chamber
    imitates the natural condition that is there
    inside the womb necessary for fertilization. The
    sperms get into action and one of them fertilizes
    the egg. The other way is that a sperm cell is
    directly injected into the egg so that it can
    fertilize it. This is called intracytoplasmic sper
    m injection (ICSI). This is done when the problem
    is of low sperm motility.

  • When the sperms fertilize several eggs and
    embryos are formed, one of the best embryos is
    selected to transfer. If there are no ideal
    embryos to implant in the womb, more than one
    embryo is selected to implant. This is done
    with the consent of the intended parents of the
    child.
  • At the end, Progesterone or chorionic gonadotropin
    hCG is administered to prepare the inner lining
    of the womb for receiving the embryo. The embryo
    transfer and implantation is done via a thin tube
    called a catheter. The catheter is inserted into
    the uterus through the vagina. The embryo sticks
    to the inner wall of the uterus and a normal
    embryo begins to grow.
