IUI 

Intrauterine Insemination (IUI), often referred to as artificial insemination, is a fertility treatment that involves placing sperm directly into a woman's uterus to facilitate fertilization. This procedure is commonly recommended for couples experiencing unexplained infertility, male fertility issues, or cervical mucus problems.

​

During an IUI procedure, a specially prepared sperm sample is inserted into the uterus through a thin, flexible catheter. This method maximizes the number of sperm cells that reach the fallopian tubes, increasing the chances of fertilization.

​

IUI is a relatively simple and less invasive fertility treatment compared to other assisted reproductive technologies. It is often combined with ovulation-inducing medications to enhance the chances of successful conception. While IUI may not be suitable for all fertility issues, it can be an effective option for many couples seeking to conceive.

IVF

In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is a widely-used assisted reproductive technology (ART) that helps individuals and couples overcome infertility by facilitating conception outside the body. IVF involves a series of carefully coordinated steps to retrieve eggs, fertilize them with sperm in a laboratory setting, and transfer resulting embryos back into the uterus.

​

The IVF process typically begins with ovarian stimulation, where fertility medications are administered to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs. These eggs are then retrieved during a minor surgical procedure performed under sedation. Meanwhile, a sperm sample is collected from the male partner or a donor.

In the laboratory, the retrieved eggs are fertilized with sperm to create embryos. These embryos are cultured and monitored for several days to assess their development and quality. The most viable embryos are selected for transfer into the uterus. Embryo transfer is a relatively simple procedure where the selected embryos are carefully placed into the uterus using a thin catheter. Any additional high-quality embryos can be cryopreserved (frozen) for future use.

Following embryo transfer, a pregnancy test is typically performed after a couple of weeks to determine if the IVF cycle was successful. While IVF can be emotionally and physically demanding, it offers hope to many individuals and couples facing infertility challenges.

ICSI

Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) is an advanced fertility treatment used in conjunction with in vitro fertilization (IVF) to overcome male infertility issues or to enhance fertilization rates. It involves the direct injection of a single sperm cell into the center of an egg to facilitate fertilization.

ICSI is recommended when there are issues with sperm quality, such as low sperm count, poor sperm motility, or abnormalities in sperm shape (morphology), which may hinder the ability of sperm to fertilize an egg naturally. It can also be used in cases where previous IVF attempts have resulted in failed fertilization.

​

During the ICSI procedure, mature eggs retrieved from the female partner are individually held in place by a specialized micropipette. A single sperm cell, selected for its optimal morphology and motility, is then carefully injected into the cytoplasm of each egg using a fine needle.

After injection, the eggs are monitored in the laboratory to assess fertilization and embryo development. The resulting embryos are then transferred into the uterus through the standard IVF procedure. ICSI has revolutionized the treatment of severe male infertility and has significantly improved the success rates of IVF treatments. It offers hope to couples facing challenges with conception due to male factor infertility and provides an opportunity for many to achieve their dream of parenthood.

SEMEN ANALYSIS

Semen analysis is a diagnostic test used to evaluate the health and quality of a man's sperm. It provides valuable information about sperm count, motility (movement), morphology (shape), and other factors crucial for fertility.

​

Matrikas IVF Centre is equipped with an AI driven semen analysis machine. It is the first centre in entire North Eastern India.

​

During a semen analysis, a man provides a semen sample, typically through masturbation, which is then analyzed in a laboratory. The sample is examined under a microscope to assess various parameters, including sperm concentration (the number of sperm per milliliter of semen), sperm motility (the percentage of sperm that are moving), and sperm morphology (the shape and structure of sperm).

​

Semen analysis plays a critical role in diagnosing male infertility and guiding treatment options. Abnormalities in sperm parameters identified through semen analysis may indicate underlying issues such as hormonal imbalances, infections, or lifestyle factors that can affect sperm production and function.

​

A comprehensive semen analysis provides valuable insights into a man's reproductive health and helps fertility specialists develop personalized treatment plans tailored to address any identified issues. It is often one of the first steps in the evaluation of couples experiencing difficulty conceiving. If you and your partner are trying to conceive and have concerns about fertility, consulting with a healthcare provider or fertility specialist to discuss semen analysis and other diagnostic tests can provide valuable information and support on your journey to parenthood.

SEMEN FREEZING

Semen freezing, also known as sperm cryopreservation, is a process where sperm cells are carefully preserved at extremely low temperatures to maintain their viability for future use in assisted reproductive treatments or fertility preservation.

Semen freezing is commonly recommended for various situations, including:

1. Fertility Preservation: Individuals undergoing medical treatments such as chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or surgeries that may affect their fertility often choose to freeze their sperm before starting treatment. This allows them to preserve their fertility and have the option to conceive children in the future.

2. Assisted Reproductive Treatments: Semen freezing is frequently utilized in conjunction with assisted reproductive technologies such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). By freezing sperm samples, couples can undergo fertility treatments at their convenience, without the need to coordinate sperm collection on the day of egg retrieval.

3. Family Planning: Some individuals or couples may opt to freeze sperm as a proactive measure for future family planning. This could be due to various reasons, including upcoming travel, career demands, or personal circumstances.

During the semen freezing process, a man provides a semen sample through masturbation, which is then processed and carefully prepared to remove seminal fluid and other contaminants. The purified sperm cells are then mixed with a cryoprotectant solution to prevent ice crystal formation during freezing.

EGG DONOR IVF

Egg Donor IVF, also known as donor egg IVF, is an assisted reproductive treatment option used to help individuals or couples conceive when there are issues with egg quality, ovarian function, or genetic concerns.

In Egg Donor IVF, eggs are retrieved from a carefully screened and healthy egg donor, typically a young woman, through a process called ovarian stimulation. The donor undergoes hormonal treatments to stimulate her ovaries to produce multiple eggs, which are then retrieved through a minor surgical procedure.

Once the eggs are retrieved, they are fertilized with sperm from the intended father or a sperm donor through in vitro fertilization (IVF). The resulting embryos are cultured and monitored in the laboratory for several days to assess their development and quality. After the embryos reach a suitable stage of development, one or more embryos are transferred into the uterus of the intended mother or a gestational carrier (surrogate) through a simple procedure. Any additional high-quality embryos can be cryopreserved (frozen) for future use. Egg Donor IVF offers hope to individuals and couples who may not be able to conceive using their own eggs due to factors such as advanced maternal age, diminished ovarian reserve, or genetic conditions. It provides an opportunity to experience pregnancy and parenthood, utilizing the healthy eggs of a donor to achieve a successful pregnancy.

LAPAROSCOPIC SURGERY

Laparoscopic surgery, also known as minimally invasive surgery or keyhole surgery, is a modern surgical technique used to diagnose and treat various gynecological conditions, including endometriosis, fibroids, ovarian cysts, and infertility issues. During laparoscopic surgery, small incisions (usually around 0.5 to 1.5 centimeters) are made in the abdomen, through which a thin, flexible tube with a camera (laparoscope) and specialized surgical instruments are inserted. The camera provides a high-definition view of the pelvic organs on a monitor, allowing the surgeon to visualize the internal structures with precision.

​

Laparoscopic surgery offers several advantages over traditional open surgery, including:

1. Minimal Scarring: The small incisions result in minimal scarring compared to traditional open surgery, leading to faster recovery and reduced postoperative pain.

2. Shorter Recovery Time: Patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery typically experience shorter hospital stays and quicker recovery times compared to open surgery, allowing them to return to their daily activities sooner.

3. Reduced Risk of Complications: Laparoscopic surgery is associated with a lower risk of complications such as infection, bleeding, and wound healing issues compared to open surgery.

4. Improved Visualization: The laparoscope provides magnified, high-definition images of the pelvic organs, allowing the surgeon to visualize and navigate the surgical site with greater precision.

Laparoscopic surgery can be used for various gynecological procedures, including:

• Laparoscopic Ovarian Cystectomy: Removal of ovarian cysts while preserving the ovary.

• Laparoscopic Myomectomy: Removal of uterine fibroids while preserving the uterus.

• Laparoscopic Hysterectomy: Removal of the uterus and possibly the ovaries and fallopian tubes, often performed to treat conditions such as fibroids, endometriosis, or cancer.

• Laparoscopic Treatment of Endometriosis: Removal or ablation of endometrial tissue outside the uterus to alleviate symptoms and improve fertility.

Laparoscopic surgery is performed by skilled gynecological surgeons with expertise in minimally invasive techniques.

PCOS TREATMENT

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a common hormonal disorder that affects women of reproductive age, characterized by irregular menstrual cycles, high levels of androgens (male hormones), and multiple small cysts on the ovaries. PCOS can cause fertility challenges and other health issues, but effective treatments are available to manage symptoms and improve fertility outcomes.

1. Lifestyle Modifications: Healthy lifestyle changes, including regular exercise, balanced diet, and stress management, can help manage symptoms of PCOS. Maintaining a healthy weight can also improve hormone balance and enhance fertility.

2. Medications: Hormonal medications such as birth control pills, progestin therapy, or anti-androgen medications may be prescribed to regulate menstrual cycles, reduce androgen levels, and improve symptoms like acne and excess hair growth.

3. Ovulation Induction: For women with PCOS who are trying to conceive, ovulation induction medications such as clomiphene citrate or letrozole may be prescribed to stimulate ovulation and improve the chances of pregnancy.

4. Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART): In cases where ovulation induction medications are not successful, or if other fertility issues are present, assisted reproductive technologies such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) may be recommended. IVF can help overcome fertility challenges associated with PCOS by retrieving eggs from the ovaries, fertilizing them with sperm in a laboratory, and transferring resulting embryos into the uterus.

5. Laparoscopic Ovarian Drilling: In some cases, a surgical procedure called laparoscopic ovarian drilling may be recommended to treat PCOS-related infertility. During this procedure, small holes are made in the ovaries using heat or a laser to reduce androgen production and stimulate ovulation.

6. Management of Symptoms: Additional treatments may be recommended to manage specific symptoms of PCOS, such as acne, excess hair growth (hirsutism), or insulin resistance. This may include topical or oral medications, laser hair removal, or lifestyle modifications to improve insulin sensitivity.

Treatment for PCOS is highly individualized and may vary based on the specific symptoms and goals of each woman.

ENDOMETRIOSIS TREATMENT

Endometriosis is a chronic condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus, often causing pelvic pain, irregular bleeding, and fertility challenges. While there is no cure for endometriosis, various treatments can help manage symptoms and improve fertility outcomes.

1. Pain Management: Pain relief medications such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or prescription pain relievers may be used to alleviate pelvic pain associated with endometriosis.

2. Hormonal Therapies: Hormonal treatments, such as birth control pills, hormonal IUDs, or gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists, can help regulate menstrual cycles, reduce pain, and slow the growth of endometrial tissue by suppressing estrogen production.

3. Surgical Interventions: In cases where symptoms are severe or fertility is affected, surgical interventions may be recommended to remove endometrial implants, scar tissue, or cysts associated with endometriosis. Conservative surgeries such as laparoscopic excision or ablation can help improve pain and fertility outcomes while preserving reproductive organs.

4. Fertility Preservation: For women with endometriosis who desire pregnancy, fertility preservation options such as ovarian reserve testing, ovarian cystectomy, or assisted reproductive technologies (ART) such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) may be considered. IVF can help overcome fertility challenges associated with endometriosis by retrieving eggs from the ovaries, fertilizing them with sperm in a laboratory, and transferring resulting embryos into the uterus.

5. Lifestyle Modifications: Adopting a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, balanced diet, stress management, and adequate sleep, can help manage symptoms and improve overall well-being for women with endometriosis.

Endometriosis treatment is highly individualized and may vary based on the severity of symptoms, desire for pregnancy, and other personal factors.
