Make your IVF treatment more cost effective at Shantah IVF Centre during COVID times and beyond

It’s been two years in a row and corona virus has indeed turned all of our world’s upside-down, changed or delayed our beloved plans and we recognize that now more than ever, investing your financial and emotional resources in fertility treatments may seem frightening. Here are the recommendations on how to make your fertility treatments as cost effective as possible with the best IVF treatment centre in Delhi:

1. Do your full research before going for the treatment:  

Make sure that you have the best protocol, doctor, clinic, and lab for your situation as not all situations are the same and not all clinics have comparable success rates. By conducting your mindfulness and select the best physician for you at the beginning of the treatment, you may save significant time and money.

2. Pursue the treatment plan based on your age and family goals:

Age is definitely the most significant part of your fertility treatment as the success rate of most fertility treatments depends on your age. Apart from the age; there may be some reasons to consider seeking fertility treatments sooner, such as an interest in fertility preservation, irregular or absent periods, a known or suspected infertility diagnosis (including PCOS or Endometriosis), known or suspected male factor infertility, or if you are in a same sex relationship etc.

For women age >35, 85% are able to conceive within one year of having unprotected intercourse.

For women aged between 35 to 37, we recommend trying to conceive naturally for 6 months before seeking treatment.

For women age 38+, we recommend seeking treatment as soon as you’re ready to conceive.

For women age 43+, unless using eggs or embryos that were previously frozen, we will generally have a conversation around using donor eggs to

Do you want to know which fertility treatment suits you the best?

This pandemic is indeed hard for everyone. Life is slowly getting new normal, people are getting used to it but the corona virus or covid 19 is still here.  It can be hard enough to tie your shoes in the morning or put yourself to bed at night. Depression, work from home pressure, anxiety, nervousness have all become a part of life.

Many known persons or even bollywood celebrities are either expecting or gave birth to their child during this pandemic. Now whether you’re trying to get pregnant right now, or you’re just educating yourself for the future and even if you’re dealing with fertility issues, you can’t exactly tell yourself to just stop thinking about it. Because there is a good news; with the help of a specialist, there’s a lot of valued information available.

Infertility is very common in India. Nearly 27.5 million couples are actively trying to conceive and suffer from infertility in the country. Though people are aware of infertility treatments like IVF, IUI, sperm donors or even surrogacy etc; thanks to our Indian media for that for spreading such great and valued information and even recent Kriti Sanon starrer bollywood movie Mimi is entirely based on Surrogacy.

What Does Your Menstrual Cycle Say About Your Fertility?

One of the most common questions that most of the doctor asks for their patients is “When was the first day of your last period?” The answer to this question may feel like part of the usual routine at your annual gynaec appointment if you have been trying to conceive without success. The answer could provide important insight into factors related to the menstrual cycle and conception such as hormonal imbalances and ovulation.

What is Menstrual cycle?

The menstrual cycle is a series of changes a woman’s body goes through each month whereby the ovary releases an egg and the uterus prepares for pregnancy.

The first day of your chums or period is day 1 of your cycle and the start of the follicular phase. During this phase, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), is released from the brain to stimulate the development of a single dominant

What to do when you plan your pregnancy at the age of 40?

Women today look towards financial stability first in their life and are more focused towards their career. And not only women, men are also in no hurry to start a family any time soon; hence given the rise to DINK couples (double income and no kids). As a result more women are getting married around 30-35 years of age or even later. Due to this, the mean age at first pregnancy is also slowly rising, with many women approaching Fertility Clinics for the first time at the age of 40 years for help in conceiving.

Delaying pregnancy sometimes leads to miscarriage or even infertility. With increasing age in females, the ovarian reserve or the number of eggs that a lady has, reduces drastically translating into decreased chances of natural pregnancy. Moreover there is a rapid decline in quality of eggs too due to which the chances of miscarriages also may increase. Research has shown that a 40 year old female seeking fertility has only 25 % chance of pregnancy with own eggs and it decreases to 1.6% at age of 44. If she conceives, the risk of miscarriage is around 25% at 40 years and around 50% at 44 years.

At the age of 40 and above, the incidence of medical problems like Diabetes Mellitus, High Blood Pressure is more. These may get aggravated during the
