Frequently Asked Question

Infertility is the inability to conceive a child, despite engaging in regular sexual intercourse for at least a year. The main symptom is not being able to get pregnant. Infertility has many causes, which your fertility specialist can help you discover.
Infertility is a fairly common problem and it affects one in 10 to 12 couples around the world. Around 45 million couples in the world face infertility issues. It’s treatable in most instances and nothing to feel anxious about.
It’s a common misunderstanding that only women suffer from infertility. In fact, one-third of infertility issues are contributed by the male partner. So yes, men also suffer from infertility.
In simple terms, getting pregnant requires three things to work – ovaries, fallopian tubes and the uterus. If you have an underlying problem affecting any of these three, the chances of infertility are high. Irregular/abnormal menstrual cycles and egg production, blocked or damaged tubes, abnormal hormone production, commonly PCOS and thyroid function, and abnormalities of the uterus are some factors contributing to infertility.
Male infertility can be attributed to several factors such as low sperm count and/or mobility, virility, absence of sperm in semen, impotence, etc.
Our top-class medical fraternity and IVF specialists ensure that all procedural protocols are strictly adhered to. We ensure quality control of the highest order. Every step of the procedure is conducted with care and precision. So, rest assured that IVF is almost completely safe and reliable.
Studies have shown that babies conceived through IVF are no more likely to have deformities than children born through normal pregnancies. The process itself does not lead to any neurological or physical abnormalities in newborn babies.
Men and women have different infertility risk factors. Age and prior health conditions are some of them. It’s important to watch out for these risk factors when you’re trying to conceive a child. You can read in-depth about infertility risk factors here
If you have been trying to get pregnant for more than a year but have been unsuccessful or when you have doubts about your fertility, it’s a good idea to see a fertility specialist.
We will take a detailed history, carry out a full clinical examination and then advise appropriate tests. The basic reports will be semen analysis and sonography of uterus and ovaries. Post this, we will make a customised treatment plan for you and your partner.
Since each case is different, there’s no one size fits all. Some require only medications or basic treatment like Intra-Uterine Insemination [IUI] while others may need some form of surgery. If these are not successful or if the problem is severe, Assisted Reproductive Technologies like IVF-ICSI may be advised.
ART is a form of infertility treatment where reproduction happens outside the body. The woman’s eggs are taken out of the body and mixed with the male partner’s sperms in a petri dish under laboratory conditions. After fertilization happens, the resulting embryo is re-inserted back into the woman’s uterus after which a normal pregnancy continues to full term. This is also called IVF (In Vitro Fertilization)
Freezing eggs and sperm to keep them viable for the future is called cryopreservation. Our cryopreservation facility facilitates the storage of eggs and sperm. You can rest assured that they are safe, sterile, and secure.
