Green Park, New DelhiConfidential fertility care
Green Park IVF guide
IVF is not a single standard protocol. This guide explains how diagnosis, age, ovarian response, sperm factors and previous treatment should shape a plan—and what to ask when choosing IVF care in Green Park or near AIIMS.
At a glance
01
IVF may be discussed for tubal problems, significant sperm factors, reduced time because of age or ovarian reserve, endometriosis, unsuccessful lower-intensity treatment, or when genetic testing of embryos is clinically relevant. It may also be part of fertility preservation or donor-gamete care.
The reason matters because it influences testing, medication, laboratory methods and expectations. Ask what alternatives were considered and what information supports moving to IVF now.
02
Before treatment, the team may review ovarian reserve, ultrasound findings, uterine and tubal information, semen analysis, relevant blood tests and both partners' medical history. Previous stimulation charts, embryology reports and transfer notes are particularly valuable after a failed cycle.
Medication dose and monitoring are adjusted to balance response and safety. More medication does not automatically mean better results, and no responsible clinic can promise a particular number of eggs, embryos or pregnancies.
03
A typical pathway includes planning, ovarian stimulation and monitoring, egg retrieval, fertilisation, embryo culture and either a fresh or frozen embryo transfer when appropriate. Some cycles pause before transfer for medical, laboratory or personal reasons.
Your team should explain each decision point before it occurs, including what happens if response is lower or higher than expected, fertilisation is limited, or no embryo is suitable for transfer. Emotional support and clear communication are part of good care, not extras.
04
A second opinion is most useful when it examines the full record rather than offering a new protocol from a short summary. Bring stimulation doses, scan and hormone trends, egg maturity, fertilisation, embryo development and transfer details.
The review should identify what is reasonably changeable, what may have been chance and where evidence is uncertain. This helps you decide whether to repeat, adjust, investigate further or take time before another cycle.
Frequently asked questions
The stimulation-to-retrieval phase often takes roughly two weeks, but preparation and embryo transfer can extend the overall timeline. A frozen transfer usually happens in a later cycle.
No. ICSI may be advised for certain sperm factors or prior fertilisation concerns. The clinic should explain why conventional IVF or ICSI is appropriate in your case.
No. IVF outcomes vary with age, diagnosis, gamete and embryo factors and other clinical circumstances. Responsible counselling uses realistic, patient-relevant estimates rather than guarantees.
Bring previous prescriptions, stimulation and monitoring records, egg-retrieval notes, semen results, embryology reports, embryo images or grading, transfer notes and pregnancy-test outcomes where available.
