Everything You Need to Know About Your IVF Appointment
Starting your IVF journey can bring many questions. Here, we’ve answered some of the most common ones to help you feel prepared and confident for your appointment.
During your appointment, your doctor will conduct necessary tests and evaluations to begin your IVF treatment. This may include reviewing your medical history, hormone tests, and ultrasound exams.
It’s important to schedule your first consultation before starting IVF treatment. It’s often best to book the appointment at a time that aligns with your menstrual cycle.
Make sure to bring any relevant medical history and a list of any medications you're currently taking. If your doctor has given specific pre-treatment instructions (such as hormone therapy), be sure to follow those.
IVF treatment typically takes several weeks, but the duration can vary depending on your health status and the stages involved, such as egg retrieval and embryo transfer.
IVF treatments may cause mild discomfort, especially during egg retrieval and embryo transfer. However, the procedure is generally not painful.
The success rates of IVF depend on factors such as your age, health, and how your body responds to the treatment. Your doctor will discuss the best options for your specific case.
You can attend your IVF appointments alone, but if you prefer, you are welcome to bring a supportive friend or family member with you.
About two weeks after the embryo transfer, a pregnancy test will be done. During this period, it’s important to monitor how your body responds to the treatment.
