The IVF Process, Step by Step

IVF involves ovarian stimulation (roughly 10–14 days), egg retrieval under sedation, fertilization in the lab (conventional or via ICSI), embryo development over 3–5 days, embryo transfer, and a two-week wait before a blood test confirms the outcome. Every patient's journey looks a little different, and our fertility specialist will walk you through what to expect for your specific case.
