In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a widely used fertility treatment that helps couples overcome various causes of infertility. Understanding who may benefit from IVF can help couples make informed decisions about their reproductive health.
Common Reasons IVF May Be Recommended
- Fallopian Tube Blockage:
Blocked or damaged fallopian tubes prevent sperm from reaching the egg or hinder the fertilized egg from reaching the uterus. IVF bypasses the tubes by directly fertilizing eggs outside the body and transferring embryos into the uterus. - Difficulty in Natural Pregnancy:
Couples facing unexplained infertility—where no clear cause is identified—may use IVF to increase chances of conception when other treatments fail. - Low Sperm Count or Male Factor Infertility:
IVF combined with ICSI (intracytoplasmic sperm injection) allows fertilization even with very low sperm counts or poor sperm motility. - Multiple IUI Failure:
If intrauterine insemination (IUI) attempts are unsuccessful over several cycles, IVF can provide a more controlled and effective fertilization method. - Other Medical Conditions:
- Advanced maternal age
- Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
- Severe endometriosis
- Uterine abnormalities
- Genetic disorders requiring preimplantation genetic testing
