Almana Hospital's In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) Department

At Almana Hospital, we understand the profound desire to build a family. Our In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) program is designed to offer hope and personalized care for couples facing infertility challenges.

What is IVF?

In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is a fertility treatment that combines a woman's egg and sperm outside the body to create an embryo. The fertilized embryo is then transferred back into the woman's uterus for implantation and pregnancy.

Who Can Benefit from IVF?

IVF can be a successful option for couples facing infertility due to various reasons, such as:

  • Blocked or damaged fallopian tubes
  • Ovulation disorders
  • Male infertility (low sperm count, poor sperm quality)
  • Unexplained infertility
  • Genetic testing of embryos (preimplantation genetic testing) to avoid passing on genetic conditions

Our IVF Process:

Our experienced team of reproductive endocrinologists, embryologists, and nurses will guide you through every step of the IVF process, ensuring a personalized and compassionate experience. Here's a simplified overview:

  1. Ovulation Stimulation and Monitoring: Medications are used to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple mature eggs.
  2. Egg Retrieval: A minimally invasive procedure to collect mature eggs from the ovaries.
  3. Sperm Retrieval: Sperm is collected from the male partner.
  4. Fertilization: Eggs and sperm are combined in a laboratory dish for fertilization.
  5. Embryo Culture: The fertilized eggs (embryos) are monitored for development.
  6. Embryo Transfer: One or more healthy embryos are carefully transferred back into the woman's uterus.
  7. Pregnancy Testing: A pregnancy test is performed after a designated waiting period.
