IVF+PGD
Each couple dreams of bearing a healthy child while avoiding the risks of genetic and other diseases being transmitted to their offspring. This is especially relevant in cases when insemination requires special care and expenses. Preimplantation genetic diagnosis allows eliminating the risks of disease transmission to the future child even before the embryo is placed into the uterine cavity.
Victor M. Zinchenko,
head of infertility treatment department, and Yakov Levron, embryology consultant, answer questions about preimplantation genetic diagnosis
Fallopian Tube Disorders
A quarter of all women diagnosed with infertility cannot conceive due to obstruction of fallopian tubes or their absence. Modern diagnostic techniques allow detecting fallopian tube disorders at an early stage and start treatment while they can still be cured. Assisted reproductive technologies give women with obstructed or no fallopian tubes a chance at conceiving.
Andriy Sadovyi,
obstetrician/gynaecologist, answers questions about obstructed or absent fallopian tubes
IVF+ICSI
The ICSI method involves injecting a spermatozoon into an egg. It is used in cases of male infertility due to a low sperm count or low motility, as well as in some cases for women trying to conceive past the age of 40. This procedure is one of the versions of the IVF method. Yet while a regular IVF procedure requires multiple high-quality spermatozoa, one spermatozoon suffices for IVF+ICSI.

head of infertility treatment department, answers questions about the IVF+ICSI method
IVF
The in vitro fertilization (IVF) method was first used in medical practice in 1978. Ever since then, it gives the joys of parenthood to couples who could not conceive due to fallopian tube, ovulation, or sperm disorders, as well as to women past 45.
The IVF procedure involves fertilizing the embryo outside the womens body and then placing it into the uterine cavity.
Alina Palamarchuk,
obstetrician/gynaecologist, answers questions about in vitro fertilization
IVM
IVM is a revolutionary infertility treatment method that rules out the most widespread complication from stimulation - ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. This method is also suitable for women with contraindications for ovarian stimulation (cancer survivors, for example). The downside of this method is a lower change of conception compared to ordinary IVF.
Yakov Levron,
embryology consultant, discusses the specifics of using the IVM method
