The IVF protocol
If you want to know more about in vitro fertilization, here is the protocol in a few simple steps.
- The IVF protocol lasts about 12 days and starts on the 2nd day of your period.
- From that moment on, a daily injection is given to optimize ovulation.
- This phase is accompanied by regular blood tests and ultrasounds to ensure that the treatment is going well.
- When your eggs have matured, it's time for the puncture.
- This usually takes place around the fifteenth day of the cycle and consists of removing the eggs.
- After fertilization, the embryos obtained are transferred to the uterus and the pregnancy can begin.
