IVFtsükli
IVFtsükli refers to a cycle of in vitro fertilization. This is a medical procedure used to treat infertility where an egg is fertilized by sperm outside of the body. The process typically involves several stages. First, ovarian stimulation is performed using medications to encourage the ovaries to produce multiple eggs. Once the eggs mature, they are retrieved from the ovaries in a minor surgical procedure. Simultaneously, sperm is collected. The retrieved eggs and sperm are then combined in a laboratory dish for fertilization. If fertilization is successful, the resulting embryos are cultured for a few days. Finally, one or more selected embryos are transferred into the woman's uterus with the hope of achieving a pregnancy. The entire IVFtsükli can take several weeks to complete, and success rates vary depending on numerous factors including age, the cause of infertility, and the specific clinic's protocols. It is a complex and often emotionally demanding process for individuals and couples undergoing treatment.
