    Interview with doctor
    1. What does the IVF process involve from start to finish?
    - IVF begins with ovarian stimulation using hormonal medications to produce
    multiple eggs. Once the eggs are mature, they are retrieved through a minor
    surgical procedure. In the lab, the eggs are fertilized with sperm to create
    embryos. These embryos are then cultured for a few days before one or more are
    transferred to the uterus. Any remaining embryos can be frozen for future use.

    2. What are the success rates for IVF at your clinic?


    - Success rates can vary based on factors such as age, health conditions, and
    specific circumstances. Generally, success rates are higher for women under 35. At
    our clinic, our success rates align with national averages, and we can provide
    specific statistics based on your profile during our consultation.

    3. How many IVF cycles do you recommend?


    - The number of cycles recommended depends on various factors, including age,
    fertility issues, and response to treatment. We typically start with one cycle and
    may recommend additional cycles if needed. The decision is personalized based on
    your progress and response to treatment.

    4. What are the potential risks and side effects of IVF?


    - Common side effects include bloating, abdominal pain, and mood swings due to
    hormonal medications. More serious risks include ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome
    (OHSS), multiple pregnancies, and rare but serious complications like infection or
    bleeding. We monitor closely to manage and mitigate these risks.

    5. What pre-IVF tests or evaluations are required?


    - Pre-IVF evaluations include hormone level tests, semen analysis for your
    partner, and imaging studies like ultrasound to assess ovarian reserve and uterine
    health. Additional tests may be required based on individual circumstances.

    6. What medications and hormones will I need to take, and what are their side
    effects?
    - You'll be prescribed medications to stimulate your ovaries, such as FSH and
    LH. Common side effects include nausea, headaches, and mood swings. We provide
    detailed instructions and support to manage any side effects.

    7. What lifestyle changes or preparations are recommended before starting IVF?


    - We recommend a balanced diet, regular exercise, and avoiding smoking and
    excessive alcohol. Maintaining a healthy weight and managing stress are also
    important for improving IVF outcomes

    8. What is the cost of IVF treatment, and what does it include?


    - The cost of IVF typically includes medication, monitoring, egg retrieval,
    fertilization, embryo transfer, and laboratory fees. We provide a detailed cost
    breakdown and discuss payment options and financing if needed.

    9. What factors can affect the success of IVF for me?


    - Factors include age, ovarian reserve, sperm quality, overall health, and
    lifestyle factors. We assess these aspects to provide a personalized treatment plan
    and improve your chances of success.

    10. What happens if IVF is not successful?


    - If IVF is not successful, we review the cycle to understand what might have
    impacted the outcome. Options include additional IVF cycles, further diagnostic
    tests, or exploring alternative treatments. We work with you to determine the best
    next steps.
