• In May 2011, Natalie, 38, came to Life IVF Center
  after trying to conceive for 2 years. She had a
  history of uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts, and
  diminished ovarian reserve. She felt like with
  her condition the chance of having a successful
  pregnancy was very low. At Life IVF Center, Dr.
  Frank Yelian met with her for an initial
  consultation and discussed with her about various
  treatment options. At the initial consultation,
  she clearly expressed that she did not like to
  use a lot of fertility drugs. Considering all
  factors, we decided to proceed with Natural Cycle
  IVF for her.

• After completing all of their pre-IVF testing, we
  start monitoring her on menstrual cycle day 2. No
  fertility medication was used, and she monitor
  two more times prior to her egg retrieval. On the
  retrieval day we retrieved ONE mature and ONE
  immature egg without using any anesthesia because
  the procedure was very short and the aspiration
  needle was very thin. We were able to fertilize
  both eggs after successfully culturing the
  immature egg in our laboratory.

Since she was not on medication, two days after
her egg retrieval we did a fresh embryo transfer
and that resulted in her first pregnancy! She had
a healthy baby at full term! The second embryo
from the immature egg was resulted in a 4AA
blastocyst, which was cryo-preserved at our
facility. Few months ago at the age of 42, she
came back for her baby number two. We decided to
transfer the frozen blastocyst. It all went well
and resulted 2nd pregnancy, and she successfully
delivered her second boy! Natural Cycle IVF was
able to help this couple achieve not just ONE but
TWO successful pregnancies! Natural Cycle IVF
has been rejected by some infertility doctors as
an ineffective IVF treatment. As there is no
fertility medications used, the average patient
only retrieves one egg at a time. Overall the
pregnancy rate from one egg is lower. However
what many doctors do not realize is that multiple
eggs are not always necessary for a successful
pregnancy.

For some patients, especially young patients with
tubal diseases, male factor infertility, or
endometriosis, Natural Cycle IVF is an excellent
option for them. For these young patients, all
they need for a pregnancy is one good quality egg
because most eggs are normal! Many patients also
believe the more eggs retrieved in a cycle, the
greater success for them, not realizing the
fertility drugs may also have detrimental effects
on the egg quality. Then the chance of pregnancy
may be reduced in some patients, especially for
those patients at age above 40, who use a lot of
drugs. This case is an example of the success
that can be achieved for patients with Natural
Cycle IVF. The uniqueness of this patient is it
was only one cycle of Natural Cycle IVF that
resulted in two pregnancies that were 4 years
apart! Conventional IVF wisdom emphasizes the use
of more medication to produce more eggs, so it
provides the better chance of a pregnancy. This
is not always true and necessary. This patient
may also achieve pregnancy through Conventional
IVF, but she might have exposes much more
fertility medication, and produce many more
surplus embryos which she may never use.
Financially, she will spend much more money to
achieve the same pregnancy!
