By stimulating two follicles, the chance of becoming pregnant is twice the chance with a single follicle. Therefore, we often advise hormone stimulation if the twinning risk is not too large.Thu, 08 Oct 2009 18:41:38 GMThttp://www.danfert.dk/page57203823.aspxThu, 08 Oct 2009 18:38:23 GMThttp://www.danfert.dk/page57203757.aspxThe embryo develops into a blastocyst on the fifth day after oocyte aspiration. By culturing to the blastocyst stage, some embryos will stop development before that stage, and this makes it easier to identify the embryo with the best chance of resulting in a viable pregnancy. However, it does not improve the quality of the single embryo. We especially recommend blastocyst culture to young women with good quality embryos who want single embryo replacement. If there are several good quality blastocysts, the others can be frozen stored.Thu, 08 Oct 2009 18:37:57 GMThttp://www.danfert.dk/page57203654.aspxThu, 08 Oct 2009 18:36:54 GMThttp://www.danfert.dk/page57203645.aspxIn the days just after oocyte retrieval and embryo replacement, most women feel painful in their abdomen and do not want to have sex. One week after embryo replacement, the embryo has implanted into the uterine mucosa if everything goes well, and now sexual intercourse cannot do harm any more.Thu, 08 Oct 2009 18:36:45 GMThttp://www.danfert.dk/page57203411.aspxNo, you will not feel pain; it feels more like a menstruation-like discomfort. Before we obtain the oocytes, we give you an effective local anesthetic in the vagina and you will also have an intravenous pain-killer. After the procedure, you rest for 20 minutes and are able to leave the clinic afterwards.Thu, 08 Oct 2009 18:34:11 GMThttp://www.danfert.dk/page57203338.aspxThe ovulation inducing substance (ovitrelle or pregnyl) has to be taken exactly 36 hours before the planned oocyte pick-up. If you take it too early, ovulation will already have occurred when you arrive at the clinic. If you take it too late, the oocytes will not be ready for aspiration. In case you have forgotten to take the ovulation induction, please call us directly and ask for instructions. Often, it can be done 24 hours later.Thu, 08 Oct 2009 18:33:38 GMThttp://www.danfert.dk/page57203315.aspxIt is not dangerous for the foetus. What happens is the following: you will not have your menstruation during down-regulation. Once you have a positive pregnancy test, down-regulation is discontinued and the pregnancy progresses normally.Thu, 08 Oct 2009 18:33:15 GMThttp://www.danfert.dk/page5720317.aspxFor IVF, we aim at having 6-8 follicles for oocyte pick-up. We do not necessarily obtain oocytes from all follicles, and not all oocytes are fertilized correctly. By having 6-8 follicles we feel pretty sure that there will also be 1-2 good embryos for replacement.Thu, 08 Oct 2009 18:31:07 GMThttp://www.danfert.dk/page57203027.aspxFor having this treatment for free in a hospital, the couple must not have common children or shared custody. Only women under 40 years are treated and the couple must have lived together for a certain period of time.Thu, 08 Oct 2009 18:30:27 GMThttp://www.danfert.dk/page57202846.aspxThu, 08 Oct 2009 18:28:46 GMThttp://www.danfert.dk/page57202753.aspxICSI means IntraCytoplasmic Sperm Injection. By gently introducing a single sperm cell into each oocyte, the chance of fertilization is increased when only few sperm cells or sperms with decreased motility are present.Thu, 08 Oct 2009 18:27:53 GMThttp://www.danfert.dk/page57202652.aspxThu, 08 Oct 2009 18:26:52 GMThttp://www.danfert.dk/page57202428.aspxThu, 08 Oct 2009 18:24:28 GMThttp://www.danfert.dk/page57202350.aspxMen’s semen quality is fluctuating. It can be normal one day, and reduced 2 days later. To get an impression of the fluctuations in the single male, we often ask for 2 different semen samples for diagnostic tests with a one week interval.Thu, 08 Oct 2009 18:23:50 GMThttp://www.danfert.dk/page57202330.aspxIn some women, endometrial mucosa is found outside the uterus in the abdominal cavity. It is observed in the ovaries, on the Fallopian tubes, the bladder and on the intestines. The most frequent symptom is abdominal pain just before menstruation begins. Endometriosis can also cause blood cysts inside the ovaries. Endometriosis is more frequently found in infertile compared to fertile women. However, it is not proven that endometriosis is the reason for infertility in affected women. For some reason women with endometriosis have reduced pregnancy chances with insemination, and IVF is often recommended instead.Thu, 08 Oct 2009 18:23:31 GMThttp://www.danfert.dk/page57202248.aspxThu, 08 Oct 2009 18:22:48 GMThttp://www.danfert.dk/page57202240.aspxTubal ligation of the woman: IVF.<br />Vasectomy of the man: after vasectomy semen production continues, however, the sperm cannot leave the testicles. Therefore, it is possible to extract living sperm cells in a small biopsy from the testicles. This procedure is called TESE (TEsticular Sperm Extraction). After sperm recovery, a single sperm cell is injected into each oocyte to enable fertilisation. The procedure requires that the woman must have IVF in order to recover the oocytes.Thu, 08 Oct 2009 18:22:40 GMT
