In Vitro Fertilization is among the most frequent assisted reproduction procedures that we offer at Midwest Fertility Center. Also known as IVF, it is a treatment that helps couples or single parents achieve fertilization. During IVF, eggs are taken from the woman’s uterus and fertilized by a donor’s sperm in a controlled environment outside of the womb. After the fertilized eggs have developed sufficiently, they are placed in the woman’s uterus.
More information about In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) can be found below, or by contacting us to arrange an appointment at one of our eight locations throughout the region.
The IVF Procedure
After the controlled application of ovarian hyperstimulation, eggs are taken from a woman’s ovary with the aid of ultrasound while the patient is under IV sedation. Anywhere from one to more than 30 eggs may be retrieved depending on the responsiveness of the ovaries to the gonadotropins’ stimulation.
A semen sample of the sperm to be used in the procedure is also collected from the male donor. The semen then undergoes a series of cell separation treatments in order to generate a clean, healthy sperm sample. Once the sperm and eggs have been prepared, they are mixed and incubated for approximately three days to facilitate proper fertilization. When the resulting embryos have developed sufficiently, they are transferred to the patient’s uterus. The transfer process is very simple, and is similar to a pelvic exam. After the transfer procedure, the patient must carefully follow the instructions of the fertility specialist. The patient may be instructed to take several days of bed rest. Ten to 12 days after the transfer, a pregnancy test is performed to confirm whether or not the treatment was successful.
If you have questions about any of the stages of IVF, our specialists in Chicago and Northwest Indiana will gladly provide as many answers as possible. Contact a Midwest Fertility Center near you to speak with a staff member.
The Success of IVF
The success of IVF depends upon a number of factors, such as the age of the patient, the quality of sperm and eggs, the skill of the physician, the health of the woman’s uterus, and the duration of infertility. Successful pregnancy following IVF can be determined through blood tests performed approximately 13 days following the procedure or by ultrasound after 30 to 40 days. Please contact our office for specific details on IVF success rates.

FAQs
IVF Q & A by Amos E. Madanes, MD
In-vitro fertilization (IVF) is a procedure by which female eggs are fertilized in a laboratory, creating one or more embryos for implantation. Prior to the actual procedure, ovaries are stimulated to help mature multiple eggs for the treatment cycle.
At Midwest Fertility Center, once your ovaries are ready, Dr. Madanes performs egg retrievals using ultra-sound guidance. An egg retrieval takes about 30 minutes and is performed under anesthesia to prevent any discomfort during the procedure. Once retrieved, an Embryologist fertilizes the eggs with sperms to create embryos.
Laboratory specialists at the Midwest Fertility Center monitor the embryos for healthy development at appropriate developmental phases. Midwest Fertility Center follows the guidelines set forth by the American Society of Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) in determining the appropriate number of embryos to transfer. The embryos will then be transferred into the uterus by our fertility specialists.
A pregnancy test is performed about two weeks later to determine whether IVF has been achieved.
Being IVF is a complicated procedure, it’s rarely the first step for infertility treatment. For many couples, IVF shouldn’t be considered until less invasive and more cost-effective treatments have been attempted and deemed unsuccessful.
IVF is a good option, however, for couples diagnosed with low sperm count or poor sperm quality, endometriosis, ovulation or uterine issues, damaged or blocked fallopian tubes, sterilization, or generalized unexplained infertility.
Before entering a fertility treatment cycle, Midwest Fertility Center reproductive specialists perform full diagnostic evaluations to help determine the cause and/or extent of your infertility. The evaluation typically takes less than a month, after which you will begin an individualized treatment plan based on your evaluation results, age, medical history, and quality of eggs and semen.
Several factors influence the success rate of IVF, in addition to age, overall health, egg and semen quality.
- Women age 35 and younger have a nearly 70% success rate with IVF; the rate decreases every year after the age of 35;
- Women over the age of 40 have an average between 11.5% – 25% success rate.
- In the United States, one out of every three women undergoing IVF achieves pregnancy
- One in three IVF pregnancies result in a live birth
As technological advances in reproductive medicine continue to improve, success rates across all age groups will increase. The skilled team of IVF experts at Midwest Fertility Center are dedicated to helping you achieve a successful pregnancy.
