FAQS

Careful monitoring of follicular growth and estradiol levels is important. Using antagonist protocols, GnRH agonist trigger, and adjusting medication doses helps reduce risk. High-risk patients may require cycle modification.
What factors affect IVF success rates?
Maternal age, embryo quality, ovarian reserve, sperm quality, and uterine health significantly affect outcomes. Lifestyle factors and laboratory conditions also play a role.
What is preimplantation genetic testing ?
