Timed Intercourse

Towards reaching a dream, Become a parent.

Low complexity treatments

Procedures to achieve pregnancy.

In this non-invasive low complexity procedure, we aim to identify the date of ovulation, moment in which the ovary releases an ovule making the encounter with the spermatozoids easier, the ideal occasion for the couple to encounter in the closest of the hugs (intercourse) resulting in a pregnancy. Timed intercourse is the procedure recommended for young couples who have not yet been trying for a long time, an in whom no preliminary alterations which can difficult the procreation were found. There are two ways of performing this process.

Infertility Treatments in Mexico

IVF with high pregnancy rates in Mexico.

In Vitro Fertilization is recommended when previous treatments, such as artificial insemination, have failed; the procedure consists in the oocyte extraction with posterior fecundation with spermatozoids, once this procedure is performed, embryos are transferred to the mother’s uterus. This technique is performed in the In Vitro laboratories of Fertility Center Cancun.

IVF helps in both female and male infertility alone or combined.

Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)

Assisting reproduction on couples with infertility issues.

This procedure is used to facilitate the fertilization on a couple that has not been able to achieve pregnancy by any other means. With the help of a catheter, the semen is directly introduced inside the woman´s uterus just in the moment the ovulation is happening, this procedure increases the sperm potential as it shortens its trajectory towards the meeting with the egg, increasing the possibility for a pregnancy.

Without ovarian stimulation:

The natural growth of the follicle and ovarian cycle is followed up by transvaginal ultrasound and the dates of between couple intercourse are programed in order to reassure the sufficient amount of spermatozoids in the female reproductive system during the evolution.

With ovarian stimulation:

It follows the same steps than in the previous, but drugs are administrated in order to cooperate with the ovulation (ovulation induction) or to achieve a multiple ovulation (ovarian stimulation) and this way, the chances of succeeding in the treatment are increased.

Some of the most common male infertility causes are:

Astenozoospermia when the alteration is due to low sperm motility, teratozoospermia when the alteration is due to unusual (abnormal) sperm form, oligozoospermia is an alteration in which the sperm concentration is below 15 million per ml, when concentration of sperm is even lower (less than one million) it is called Criptozoospermia

Some of the most common causes of female infertility are:

Ovulation problems, endocrine ovarian factor (alteration at any menstrual cycle phase, chronic non ovulatory cycles), tube factor (Fallopian tubes obstruction), uterus factor (uterine malformations, hypoplastic or child uterus, uterus septum), mild to severe endometriosis (chronic disease in which endometrial tissue appears and grows outside the uterus).

To whom is this procedure aimed?

This In Vitro Fertilization procedure or IVF is indicated in the following cases:

Women with limited oocyte number.
Fallopian tubes lack or injury.
When Artificial Insemination has failed.
Men with low sperm quality.
Low embryo quality with constant implantation failure.
Women with no partner.

Who is candidate for this procedure?

Generally this procedure is the first proposal made to couples seeking to get pregnant and show some of the following:

At least one healthy fallopian tube.
Alterations in the uterine cervix.
Coital difficulties in the woman.
Slight endometriosis.
Unknown infertility.

Advantage

The main advantage of this procedure of all that encompass the Assisted Reproductive Techniques, is the least invasive way, it’s simple, low cost and very similar to a natural conception, with the difference that on this procedure, the sperm is selected, adding a hormonal treatment for the woman where you know the exact time of ovulation, thus increasing exponentially the success rate for implantation.

Results

This basically depend on the age of the woman and the infertility cause, but in a general sense, there is the need to understand that the pregnancy rate with artificial insemination is accumulative, meaning that in the event the first attempt fails, the following attempts increase the chances of success, and successively, until a maximum of 4 to 6 cycles, getting all the way to 50 % of success rate.

How to achieve the best results?

Is important that before beginning this procedure is necessary to know the couple’s age and their general health state, for which they will be required to perform an evaluation through laboratory tests.

Requirements to become a candidate to this procedure:

Women with age below 30 years old.
Rule out any possible uterus malformations through an ultrasound.
Rule out any possible pathology through an ultrasound.
Haven’t previously realized any reproduction treatment.
Normal semen.
Fallopian tubes permeability.

Our Fertility Process

The step by step guide of our IVF Mexico procedure

1. Ovarian stimulation.

It consists on inducing multiple ovulation using hormone replacement therapy. This method allows us to anticipate the exact moment of ovulation as well the correct maturation of the eggs that will be fertilized.

2.Punction, retrieval and aspiration.

Is the procedure through which mature eggs (sizes around 15 and 18 mm) are retrieved from the female patient for their fertilization at the IVF laboratory.

3. Fertilization through ICSI.

Through this process the egg is fertilized to create a new being (embryo), in this process we inject a single sperm inside each retrieved egg.

4. Embryo culture.

Once the egg is fertilized, we observe its development at our laboratory until it reaches the optimal conditions for transference to the woman’s uterus.

5. Embryo transfer.

When the embryo is at its best moment to implant on the woman’s uterus, is places inside the uterus on its distal locus (near the Fallopian tubes) to start its development and furthermore, to carry a pregnancy. This is performed by charging the embryos on a cannula that is conducted trans-vaginally until it reaches the uterus. An embryo or two may be transferred, according to each particular case.

6. Embryo vitrification.

Embryo freezing is recommended to the best quality embryos for future attempts, in case of not achieving a pregnancy on the first try as this depends in a high grade, to women’s age. Embryo vitrification or fast freezing, has proven to be the best method for freezing and thawing yielding better posterior results.

Our Process

The step by step guide of our procedure

1. Ovarian stimulation and monitoring.

To achieve better results and thus, increasing the success probability of the artificial insemination, there is a process to follow for hormonal stimulation of the ovaries, which helps us to increase the number of egg through echo-graphic controls, that will allow us to know the number of such and to program the exact moment of the insemination.

2. HGC application.

In the moment we observe that the egg reaches certain stage of development, there is an HGC hormone application that will assist on the final maturity stages of the egg, thus resulting on the egg coming out of the ovaries and head to the fallopian tube where it will wait for the sperm. When this stage has been reached, the insemination is programmed one or 2 days after.

3. Semen collection and prepping.

Consist on the selection of the higher quality sperms. For this, we process the sperm through semen preparation techniques, eliminating those that are dead, immobile or slow, giving us an assurance of higher quality insemination.

4. Insemination.

The qualified sperm will be introduced by a small catheter inside the uterine cavity, this process is considered ambulatory, very similar to a pap smear, and takes only a few minutes, allowing the patient to have an normal life after the procedure in an immediate way. After 14 days, there is a blood test for the beta pregnancy results.
