MINI IVF
Description
“Mini IVF”, also known as “minimal stimulation in vitro fertilization” is similar to conventional IVF treatment, but differs in the amount of medications used to stimulate the ovaries. Mini-IVF is a procedure that involves ovarian stimulation using low dosage medications under the premise that it is safer and less expensive than conventional IVF treatment while yielding comparable success. Mini IVF is a procedure that aims to obtain a lower count but higher quality of eggs after a stimulation cycle. In a regular IVF cycle, stimulation is done so that a certain amount of eggs can be retrieved in the end. However, mini IVF is designed so that only a few eggs of maximum quality can be retrieved. The higher the quality of the eggs, the higher the chances of success. The goal of Mini IVF is to help produce fewer but higher quality eggs with fewer medications and injections. This reduces the overall treatment cost and avoids possible over-stimulation of patients. In this select group of people, it is imperative to optimize all aspects of care in order to yield the greatest benefits. quality of eggs.
