Services
In Vitro Fertilization
In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) combines eggs and sperm manually in a lab to address infertility. Our process includes embryo culture, genetic testing, and transfer, tailored to individual needs. Patients benefit from advanced techniques like blastocyst biopsy and pre-implantation genetic screening, enhancing success rates for couples facing complex fertility challenges.
Intra-Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection
ICSI involves injecting a single sperm directly into an egg to achieve fertilization. This technique is ideal for male factor infertility, ensuring viable embryos even with low sperm quality. Our lab utilizes high-precision tools and vitrification to preserve embryos, maximizing pregnancy outcomes for patients requiring advanced reproductive interventions.
Embryo Banking
Embryo banking preserves embryos through cryopreservation for future IVF cycles. Our vitrification technology ensures high survival rates post-thaw, offering flexibility for patients delaying pregnancy. This service supports family-building goals while reducing the need for repeated ovarian stimulation, enhancing convenience and cost-effectiveness for long-term fertility planning.
Pre-implantation Genetic Testing
Pre-implantation Genetic Testing (PGT) screens embryos for genetic abnormalities before transfer. By selecting genetically normal embryos, we reduce miscarriage risks and improve pregnancy success rates. This service is critical for patients with family histories of genetic disorders or recurrent pregnancy loss, providing clarity and confidence in their fertility journey.
Gestational Surrogacy
Gestational surrogacy enables couples to have biological children when pregnancy is unsafe or unattainable. We coordinate with surrogates and fertility specialists to ensure legal, medical, and emotional support throughout the process. Our comprehensive care includes embryo transfer, monitoring, and post-birth follow-up, fostering successful outcomes for intended parents.
