Before beginning a cycle of IVF using your own eggs and sperm, you and your spouse will likely need various screenings, including:

• Ovarian reserve testing
• Semen analysis
• Infectious disease screening
• Practice (mock) embryo transfer
• Uterine exam

No, infertility is not always a woman's problem. The male partner plays an equal role in determining the fertility possibility of a couple. Male infertility may be caused due to tubal blockages, injuries, low sperm count, poor sperm motility or abnormal sperm morphology.

IVF is usually recommended as a first-line infertility solution to couples with fallopian tube damage, premature ovarian failure, advanced endometriosis, impaired sperm production or unexplained infertility. It is also suggested for women without functional ovaries. In this case, a surrogate mother can be appointed, who will carry the couple's fetus in her womb.

Common causes of female infertility are ovulation disorders, ovarian abnormalities, damage to the Fallopian tubes and cervical problems. Age plays an important role in determining a woman's fertility potential, and fertility declines with age.

Preimplantation genetic screening (PGS) is a method that analyzes embryos from genetically chromosomally normal parents for structural or numerical chromosomal errors. Since chromosomal abnormalities can affect embryo implantation and development, routine screening allows the identification and selection of ideal embryos, which in turn reduces the chance of an unhealthy embryo and increases the chance of a successful pregnancy.
