When we have evidence through ultrasound that the follicles have reached a satisfactory size and we consider that there is an appropriate number, oocyte retrieval is scheduled 36 hours after the administration of an injection of chorionic gonadotropin, which causes the eggs to mature in a similar way as in a natural cycle.<br \/>\nIt is performed in the operating room under anesthesia, so that the woman <strong>does not feel any discomfort during the procedure<\/strong> , which lasts approximately 15 minutes.<br \/>\n<strong>Egg retrieval is performed transvaginally<\/strong> , under continuous ultrasound control. The follicles are punctured one by one through a needle that penetrates the vaginal wall. The contents of each follicle are aspirated into special tubes and immediately delivered to the embryology laboratory.<br \/>\nThe embryologist locates the eggs, isolates them from the follicular fluid and places them in special small containers, called dishes, containing a special culture medium. The dishes are then placed in an incubator under the appropriate culture conditions.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1617312837202{padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; el_class=&#8221;vc_col-sm-push-6&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;5711&#8243; img_size=&#8221;400&#215;400&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; el_class=&#8221;vc_col-sm-pull-6&#8243;][vc_column_text]\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Fertilization<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>After egg retrieval, sperm is collected<\/strong> from the partner and the eggs are fertilized. The fertilization process is carried out either through classic in vitro fertilization where a few thousand sperm are placed around an egg or through intracytoplasmic sperm injection ( <strong>ICSI<\/strong> ) where a live sperm is selected and inserted into the egg by the embryologist.<br \/>\nAt this point, it should be mentioned that there are two more new methods that ensure the correct selection and use of the highest quality and functional sperm and improve success rates. These are <strong>IMSI<\/strong> and <strong>PICSI<\/strong> .<br \/>\nWith the first method, IMSI (intracytoplasmic injection of morphologically selected sperm), the morphologically perfect sperm are selected with a special -high-resolution- microscope (which provides a magnification 6,000 times greater than that in the ICSI method) and are then placed inside the egg.<br \/>\nWith the PICSI method, sperm is selected depending on whether or not it binds to the hyaluronan hydrogel substance, which covers the dish in which we place the sperm. Based on the fact that only normal sperm, with the correct number of chromosomes and a low rate of DNA fragmentation, binds to this substance, the embryologist easily selects the quality sperm and microfertilization follows.<br \/>\n<strong>The day after fertilization, the embryos are &#8220;graded&#8221;<\/strong> according to their morphological characteristics and their ability to divide. Some may not have developed and are rejected because they are considered non-viable. This correct morphology seems to be associated with spermatozoa that have the correct number of chromosomes and therefore with the creation of embryos that also have the correct number of chromosomes.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1617312837202{padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;7466&#8243; img_size=&#8221;400&#215;400&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Embryo transfer<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is the process of transferring the embryos into the uterine cavity.<br \/>\nEmbryo transfer is painless and short, no anaesthesia is required.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The best embryos are selected for transfer to the mother&#8217;s womb and the embryo transfer is performed with a special catheter.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The whole process is done with great care and thoroughness.
