Step 2: Ovarian Stimulation
During ovarian stimulation, injectable hormone medications mature multiple eggs simultaneously. Unlike the natural cycle, this process aims to increase the number of eggs. Regular monitoring through ultrasounds and blood tests tracks follicle growth. A trigger shot is given once follicles reach the desired size to prepare them for retrieval, maximizing the chances of collecting healthy eggs.
Duration: 10-14 days

Step 3: Egg Retrieval
Egg retrieval is a minor procedure performed under mild sedation. Using a thin needle guided by ultrasound, the doctor collects mature eggs from your ovaries through the vaginal wall. The procedure lasts about 20-30 minutes and is minimally invasive. The retrieved eggs are placed in a culture solution and stored in an incubator, preparing them for fertilization.

Step 4: Fertilization and Embryo Development
The final step is the transfer of embryos into the uterus, using either fresh or frozen-thawed embryos. A thin catheter places the embryo into the uterine cavity, a simple and often painless procedure. After the transfer, a blood test confirms pregnancy in nine to fourteen days. If successful, the embryo implants into the uterine lining, beginning the pregnancy.
