After an ultrasound check during this period, the treatment starts with daily hormone injections (gonadotropins) administered subcutaneously in the abdominal area to stimulate the eggs in the ovaries. The egg maturation process takes an average of 8-14 days. During this period, ultrasound examinations are performed at regular intervals to monitor the development of the eggs. On the 6th day of gonadotropin treatment, a different injection called a GnRH antagonist is started to prevent the eggs from rupturing prematurely. When at least 3 follicles (structures containing the eggs) reach sizes of 18mm or more, an hCG injection is administered to mature the eggs, and 36 hours after this injection, the egg retrieval procedure is performed.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0fd0f07 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"0fd0f07\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Stage 2: Egg Retrieval Procedure<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-076c23c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"076c23c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span class=\"SimTextWrite_textBody__HFVFn SimTextWrite_textBody2__YEfPk group relative \"><span class=\" text-[16px] \">The egg retrieval procedure is performed in an operating room under sedation anesthesia administered intravenously (inducing a sleep state).

Chromosomes are made up of DNA, which carries genetic information. Each person receives 23 chromosomes from their mother and 23 from their father. Errors in the number of chromosomes in the egg or sperm can result in embryos with missing or extra chromosomes. This condition is called aneuploidy. In most cases of aneuploidy, the embryo cannot implant in the uterus, or if it does, it results in a miscarriage. However, in the case of trisomy 21 (having three copies of chromosome 21 instead of two), implantation of the embryo can lead to Down Syndrome.

As maternal age increases, the success rate of IVF treatment decreases due to declining egg quality and quantity. After the age of 40, egg quality continues to decline more rapidly, and the likelihood of pregnancy drops significantly after the age of 45.<\/p><\/li><li><p><strong>Embryo Quality:<\/strong> The developmental stage and quality of the transferred embryo can affect pregnancy rates. Blastocyst embryos (5th or 6th day) have a higher likelihood of achieving pregnancy compared to 3rd-day embryos.<\/p><\/li><li><p><strong>Duration of infertility and number of previous treatments:<\/strong> The longer the duration of infertility and the higher the number of unsuccessful IVF treatments, the lower the likelihood of pregnancy.<\/p><\/li><li><p><strong>Previous pregnancy history:<\/strong> Patients who have previously given birth have a higher chance of becoming pregnant with IVF treatment compared to women who have never given birth.<\/p><\/li><li><p><strong>Cause of infertility:<\/strong> Patients with a high number of eggs have a higher likelihood of successful IVF treatment compared to those with a low number of eggs.
