IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) is a fertility treatment where eggs are retrieved from the ovaries, fertilized with sperm in our embryology lab, and the resulting embryo is transferred into the uterus.

IVF is recommended for couples with blocked fallopian tubes, low sperm count, PCOS, endometriosis, unexplained infertility, repeated IUI failure, or women above 35 with declining ovarian reserve.

A single IVF cycle takes 15 to 20 days from the first injection to embryo transfer, plus 9 to 14 days for the pregnancy test result.

Daily hormone injections may cause mild discomfort and bloating. Egg retrieval is done under sedation, so you feel nothing. Mild cramping after is normal and usually resolves within 48 hours.

IVF success rates depend on age, ovarian reserve, embryo quality, and diagnosis. At Candor IVF Center Limited, success rates are among the highest in Gujarat, with stronger outcomes for women under 35.

Common side effects include bloating, mild cramping, breast tenderness, and mood changes from hormonal injections. Serious complications like OHSS are rare and closely monitored at every stage.

Many couples conceive in the first or second cycle. Most fertility specialists recommend planning for up to three cycles, as cumulative success rates improve significantly with each attempt.

Gender selection for social reasons is prohibited in India under the PCPNDT Act. It is only permitted in specific medical cases involving genetic conditions. Candor IVF Center Limited strictly follows this law.

Maintaining a healthy BMI, quitting smoking and alcohol at least 3 months before treatment, eating a low-glycaemic diet, taking prescribed supplements, and managing stress all meaningfully improve IVF outcomes.
