Artificial Insemination

What is artificial insemination?

It is the introduction of semen, previously trained, into the uterine cavity. Previously, the woman is prepared with drugs that increase ovarian production. After causing ovulation, semen is injected directly into the fundus of the uterus, thus shortening its passage through the female genital organ.

Oriented to:

Some ovulation disorders
Tightness in the cervix
Inability of the sperm to reach their destination.
Slight to moderate decreases in the number, motility or shape of the sperm.
Ejaculation disorders
And in some cases of unexplained infertility

Induction to Ovulation

Phases of Treatment

What is ovulation induction?

It consists of the administration of drugs that promote follicular development and the subsequent release of eggs from the ovary. To achieve pregnancy, sexual intercourse or reproductive techniques are programmed to coincide with ovulation.

STIMULATION AND CONTROLS

In the first days of the menstrual cycle, medication is started to stimulate the development of one or more follicles. Then 1 or 2 follow-up ultrasounds are performed until the follicles of the right size are visualized to provoke their ovulation.

SEXUAL RELATIONS

After stimulation, the specialist schedules the most appropriate time for sexual intercourse and how often is appropriate.

CONFIRMATION OF PREGNANCY

After 15 to 17 days a blood pregnancy test is done.

ECOGRAPHY

After confirming the pregnancy, the time to perform the ultrasound is calculated, which is normally done when the quantitative blood test gives a value of more than 1000, or 5 weeks after the date of the last menstruation. In order to determine its proper location.

Her eggs and her partner’s semen • Her eggs with donor semen • Donor eggs with partner’s semen

In vitro fertilization

What is In Vitro Fertilization?

It consists of the fertilization of the ovum with the sperm outside the woman’s body, it is carried out in a laboratory assisted by embryologists.

An ovarian stimulation guided by the infertologist is required to obtain several eggs that will be extracted by follicular aspiration of the ovary. Once fertilized in the laboratory, they are introduced into the woman’s uterus to achieve a pregnancy.

Results

Pregnancy rates after IVF-ICSI treatment are around 50%, confirmed with a positive heart beat. In any case, they depend on the age of the woman and the possible concurrent causes that have determined the indication for treatment. Results also vary depending on the number of embryos transferred. The risk of abortion, once the pregnancy is achieved, is the same as in a natural pregnancy, something similar happens with fetal alterations, which are similar to that of pregnancies achieved without medical help.

Preservation of Female Fertility

What does it consist of?

It consists in that you can preserve your young eggs in perfect condition until the moment you decide to be a mother . Factors such as age, genetics, lifestyle habits or the clinical situation mean that the reproductive capacity of women can be considerably reduced.

Now, thanks to advanced cryopreservation techniques, science makes it possible for us to preserve fertility without the passage of time running against us.

When to preserve your fertility?

If you have always wanted to be a mother but the ideal moment has not yet arrived, you must preserve your fertility, the main causes of infertility are based on advanced age. From 25 to 35 years of age, the reproductive capacity of women decreases up to 50%.

Clinical situation

Most people are aware that diseases like cancer can affect fertility due to aggressive chemotherapy or radiation treatments. However, there are other diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, early menopause or autoimmune diseases that affect fertility.

How do we preserve your fertility?

Egg retrieval is a simple, fast and practically painless process. After follicular puncture, the ovules are vitrified in the laboratory at a temperature of -196 ° C and preserved in liquid nitrogen.

How long will my frozen eggs wait for you?

All the time you need. Vitrification is a very safe process that guarantees the viability of the ovules without the passing of the years affecting their quality.

And when you want to be a mother, we will follow this step by step to achieve your pregnancy:

DETERMINING THE SEX OF THE BABY IN MATERNAL BLOOD

We achieved a non-invasive extraction technique for cell-free fetal DNA, in maternal blood from week 9, where 4 biomarkers are evaluated, thus determining the sex of the baby.

Results in 48 hours.

Screening

WHAT IS THE PANORAMA SCREENING?

PANORAMA IS A NON-INVASIVE PRENATAL SCREENING TEST (NIPT) that is performed with a blood sample taken by venipuncture from the mother’s forearm. During pregnancy, some DNA from the baby is transferred into the mother’s bloodstream. Panorama examines this DNA to determine if there is evidence of certain genetic conditions that can affect the baby’s health.

WHAT RESULTS CAN I GET WITH PANORAMA?

Low risk:

A low risk result indicates that your baby is unlikely to have one of the conditions listed on the Panorama panel. Note, however, that a low-risk result does not guarantee a healthy pregnancy, as Panorama is not a diagnostic test and only detects certain conditions.

High risk:

A high-risk result indicates that there is an increased risk that your baby has the condition, but there is no certainty. Invasive tests during pregnancy, such as amniocentesis or chorionic villus biopsy, or postnatal tests can tell you for sure if the baby has any conditions. Talk to your doctor about your control options.

Without result:

In a small percentage of cases, Panorama cannot obtain enough information from a blood sample to determine an accurate result. If this happens, you may be asked for a second blood sample.

Requirements for the test

From week 9 of pregnancy

2 Streck tubes of 10 ml blood (Request kits for sampling)

Results in 15 business days

Rechanneling

WHAT IS TUBAL RECANALIZATION?

In the world many patients choose Tubectomy (Fallopian Tube Ligation) as the definitive method of contraception to avoid having more children. But many of these patients around 6% to 15% reconsider their decision for multiple reasons, such as change of partner, death of a child and want a pregnancy again.

What is Tubal Recanalization : It is a surgical procedure in which it is sought to reconnect the tubes previously amputated or cut in the tubectomy to make them permeable again, reestablish fertility and thus allow new pregnancies.

How is Tubal Recanalization performed : There are two surgical techniques that allow the fallopian tubes to be recanalized, the first technique is by Laparotomy or Open Surgery where an incision similar to that of a cesarean section is made where the abdominal cavity is entered and the tubes to repair them and the other route is Laparoscopic in which small incisions are made in the navel and abdomen to achieve the insertion of instruments that will allow the repair of the tubes without the need for large surgical wounds, with a faster recovery.

SUCCESS RATES.

Tubal recanalization by both Laparotomy or Laparoscopic surgical routes has similar success rates between 60-80 %.

Conditions for Tubal Recanalization :

Complete medical and psychological evaluation.

Maternal age less than 37 years.

Time of tubectomy or tubal ligation less than 10 years.

Know the technique used in the previous tubectomy, this because sometimes there is tubectomy with extensive damage to the tube that makes it difficult to achieve recanalization.

Risk of Tubal Recanalization : Tubal recanalization is a safe, outpatient procedure, with minimal risks for the patient with a fairly rapid recovery.

It is also important to inform the patient that after tubal recanalization there is an increased risk of ectopic pregnancies due to the fact that in the healing process narrowings in the tube can be generated that make it difficult to transport the embryo.

Ovulation stimulants

Disovulation (ovulation disorders) constitutes more than a third of fertility abnormalities, usually patients present changes in their menstrual cycle with amenorrhea (lack of menstruation for more than three months), oligomenorrhea (frequent delays in the menstrual cycle).

Ovulation induction is reserved only for patients who have deficient ovulation confirmed by clinical, ultrasound or biochemical examination.

Our group of professionals has the ability to clarify what type of disorder your fertility presents, we always comprehensively evaluate both the male and female factor and corroborate with ultrasound and laboratory analyzes the need for the use of some medication to optimize ovulation.

LEAVING FERTILITY FOOTPRINT has at your disposal a complete pharmaceutical service, with the highest quality standards, where the medication that requires cold chain (Conservation below 8 degrees Celsius) remains under constant evaluation with temperature alarms for optimal dispensing. .

Each one of the causes of poor ovulation has medications that allow the reproductive specialist to use them in order to induce, improve and coordinate the moment of ovulation and thus apply the different techniques in assisted reproduction such as the indication of the fertile week. , artificial insemination with semen from the husband or a donor, hyperstimulation of egg retrieval prior to IVF (in vitro fertilization) or ICSI (intracytoplasmic sperm injection).

The extensive experience that our specialists in human reproduction, their constant training in national and international courses, discussing case by case with their colleagues and embryologists result in the best opportunity to solve their reproduction problems in the shortest possible time and with optimization. of the economic resource so that the patients of LEAVING FERTILITY FOOTPRINT, feel that they are best cared for.
