How to get a quota for IVF? Printable version
Last update: 18.08.2023Infertility is considered by doctors not only as s medical, but also as a social issue. IVF is one of the assisted reproductive technologies used in the case of infertility of married couples.
The reproductive technologies (ART) used in the country include:
- in vitro fertilization (IVF);
- surrogacy;
- use of donor cells;
- Intra Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI);
- intrauterine insemination (IUI);
- oocyte cryopreservation (freezing and storage);
- preimplantation genetic diagnosis of the embryo (PGD);
- TESA method for collecting sperm from the men.
What differs such conception from a classical one is that it occurs outside a mother's body. The required genetic material is taken from a mother and father. In the laboratory, the eggs are fertilized, and then an embryo is transferred to a special incubator. If development goes well, then several embryos are selected to be transferred to a woman's uterus.
Also, if preferred by a patient, IVF can be done on a paid basis in private clinics and prices are set by private clinics.
