First visit at the clinic
On your first visit to the clinic, you will be able to pay for the procedure and the stimulation medication, have blood tests and ultrasound done if necessary and leave a semen sample.
Start of ovarian stimulation for the partner providing the eggs
The partner providing the eggs will undergo a regimen of daily injections designed to stimulate her ovaries to produce multiple eggs. This crucial phase of the process typically spans between 8 to 14 days.
Monitoring
Follow-up ultrasound to monitor response to the ovarian stimulation.
Final maturation injection
The partner who provides the eggs will be taking the trigger shot to help her eggs mature before the retrieval. This is usually done around 36 hours before the procedure.
Egg retrieval procedure
The partner who provides the eggs will be under sedation for a quick, minimally invasive procedure, guided by ultrasound, to gently collect eggs from her ovaries.
Embryo fertilization and culture
The eggs will be fertilized with sperm in the lab and cultured to develop into embryos for transfer.
Cryogenic preservation
Cryopreservation of surplus embryos that demonstrate optimal developmental characteristics, ensuring their viability for future transfers.
Embryo(s) transfer
Time for the big day. Your best embryo(s), showcasing exceptional morphological qualities, will be carefully chosen for transfer to the uterus, aiming for successful implantation in the partner who will carry the pregnancy.
Rest for a day, then back home
After a day of rest, you'll be ready and safe to fly back home. This short recovery ensures a smooth and risk-free return to your routine.
