In Vitro Maturation Treatment in Ahmedabad.
Fertility challenges can be overwhelming, but advancements like IVM (In Vitro Maturation) are making parenthood more accessible. At Maa Women’s Hospital and IVF Center Pvt. Ltd, we specialize in providing safe, effective fertility treatments tailored to individual needs.
What Exactly is IVM?
Unlike conventional IVF, which requires heavy hormonal stimulation, IVM collects immature eggs from minimally stimulated or unstimulated ovaries. Using ultrasound guidance, these eggs are retrieved and matured in a laboratory over 24–48 hours with specialized culture media containing small amounts of hormones.
Once matured, fertilization is achieved using Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI), and healthy embryos are transferred to the uterus. This approach eliminates the need for multiple injections and intensive monitoring while still offering a high chance of pregnancy.
Who Stands to Benefit from IVM?
IVM is a versatile treatment that suits a variety of patients:
• Women with PCOS, who face higher risk of Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS) with traditional IVF.
• Younger women with normal menstrual cycles looking for a safer, cost-effective alternative.
• Women preserving fertility before chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
• Cases where immature eggs are retrieved during IVF and require maturation outside the body.
Women under 35 with an antral follicle count of 10 or more are ideal candidates, as they maximize the chance of success.
IVM vs. IVF: Key Differences
The main advantage of IVM lies in safety. Traditional IVF can cause OHSS, a potentially serious complication, whereas IVM avoids this risk entirely. Additionally, IVM is less expensive because it eliminates costly hormone injections and frequent monitoring. Treatment cycles are shorter, making the journey less stressful for patients while maintaining high effectiveness.
Effectiveness and Safety Considerations
Globally, over 400 babies have been born through IVM, with clinical pregnancy rates around 38% for women under 35. While long-term safety data is still limited compared to IVF and ICSI, early results show promising outcomes. Some studies note a slightly higher miscarriage risk, but IVM remains a safe, viable, and less invasive alternative to conventional fertility treatments.
