Ovary Prior to Egg Collection  |

Theatre
On the day that your follicles have matured, your eggs will be retrieved from your ovaries under transvaginal ultrasound guidance. This procedure takes around 20 minutes and is done under intravenous sedation so you will not feel anything. The eggs are immediately transferred to a culture medium together with the sperm and incubated for fertilisation to occur. Three days (of five days for blastocyst) after your egg collection the embryos are transferred to your uterus (womb). This is a short painless procedure that takes around 15 minutes.
Laboratory
Our embryology laboratory is on-site and managed by experienced state-registered embryologists. It is equipped with the latest state-of-the-art technology to perform the procedures of IVF, ICSI, GIFT, ZIFT, PESA/TESA, Preimplantation Genetic Screening (PGS), laser assisted hatching and the freezing of embryos, sperm and eggs.
