Helping couples conceive with expert IVF.

In vitro fertilization is an advanced fertility treatment that successfully helps couples to conceive healthy babies. With over 70 years of experience, the Kofinas Fertility Group specialists can treat a variety of fertility issues with treatments like in vitro fertilization. The IVF procedure significantly increases the chances of the embryo(s) attaching to the woman’s uterine lining and developing naturally into a fetus.

IVF is the most advanced and effective of the assistive reproductive technology (ART) fertility procedures. It is performed by retrieving mature eggs from the ovaries and fertilizing those eggs in the lab with sperm to create an embryo. Once the embryo is sufficiently developed, it is implanted into the uterus, where it naturally develops into a fetus. One IVF cycle takes about two weeks.

What can I expect?

There are a few steps to performing a successful IVF procedure. The main steps include:

Ovulation induction

Using fertility medication to stimulate multiple egg follicles to develop within the ovaries

Fertilization

Fertilizing the eggs with sperm in a laboratory setting

Egg retrieval

Extracting mature eggs after one to two weeks of ovarian stimulation

Embryo monitoring

Monitoring the daily growth of the resulting embryos and determining when they are at the optimum stage of development for transfer to the uterus

Sperm retrieval

A semen sample is obtained and prepared to combine with the eggs

Embryo transfer

Transferring one or more quality embryos to the uterus through a small, thin insemination catheter
