Services Offered in Nova IVF Fertility Centre Vesu

You can avail consultation services at Nova IVF centre in Vesu from IVF experts who can guide you about different treatment plans available and clarify your doubts about the complex world of fertility treatments. Fertility services offered by Nova IVF Fertility are as follows:

Infertility Testing for Men
IVF doctors use various tests like blood tests, semen analysis, and ultrasounds, among others, to understand the infertility for male patients and determine the best line of treatment.
Female Infertility Treatment
Nova IVF Fertility hospital in Vesu offers cutting-edge diagnostic and treatment options for female infertility, under the guidance of some of the best IVF doctors in the country at Nova IVF.
Testicular Sperm Aspiration (TESA)
For couples with male-factor infertility caused by low sperm count, TESA is an excellent fertility technique; doctors can retrieve sperm from the male’s testicles during a minimally invasive procedure.
Percutaneous Epididymal Sperm Aspiration (PESA)
With the help of PESA, andrologists can retrieve sperm from the epididymis of the intended father.
Anti Müllerian Hormone (AMH) Test
The AMH test helps fertility doctors gauge an estimate of the patient’s ovarian reserve to guide their personalised treatment plan.
Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)
This is a minimally invasive ART that facilitates fertilisation by directly inserting ‘concentrated and washed’ sperm into the womb.
In-Vitro Fertilisation (IVF)
IVF is the most popular fertility treatment that involves fertilisation of an egg retrieved from the intended mother in an embryology lab with sperm collected from the intended father.
Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI)
ICSI is used as a supplementary technique to improve treatment outcomes for couples with low sperm count.
Lymphocyte immunisation therapy (LIT)
In some cases, the immune system of the intended mother may prevent the pregnancy from sticking. If the doctor suspects this is the case for you, they will recommend LIT to prepare your immune system for the pregnancy by injecting the intended father’s white blood cells into your skin.
ZyMot
Zymot is used to select the most healthy sperm from a semen sample in case of poor sperm quality in a male partner to support fertility treatment. This advanced device allows only the most motile sperm to pass through. These filtered sperm may be then checked for their morphology and motility before being used to fertilise eggs.
Physiological intracytoplasmic sperm injection (PICSI)
Using PICSI, embryologists can evaluate different aspects of the sperm (including its motility, morphology, and blinding ability with hyaluronan hydrogel) and select the most viable from a batch to create healthy embryos. PICSI is an enhanced version of ICSI.
Embryo Glue
A hyaluronan-rich embryo transfer medium, embryo glue is used for patients who have experienced recurrent IVF failures to improve their treatment outcomes. Since embryo glue mimics the natural environment of the uterus, it promotes the implantation process after embryo transfer.
Egg Freezing
Egg freezing services at the Nova IVF clinic in Vesu provide women the option to delay childbirth by preserving their good quality eggs today to be used later. It is also recommended for women who have cancer to freeze their eggs.
Own Egg Pregnancy
You can conceive with your own eggs with the help of expert guidance from our IVF specialists at Nova IVF hospital in Vesu.
Preliminary Assessments
Fertility assessment is performed for each patient upon visiting Nova IVF Fertility. This helps the doctors understand your unique requirements and forms the basis of planning the treatment.
Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT)
PGT can screen embryos before implantation for any chromosomal or genetic abnormalities during IVF treatment.
Magnetic Activated Sperm Sorting (MACS)
Damaged or unhealthy sperm mixed in a semen sample can be separated from the healthy, viable sperm that with the help of MACS.
Cryopreservation
Cryopreservation enables IVF specialists in Vesu to preserve eggs, sperm, and embryos for future usage.
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID)
Recording and tracking a patient’s progress is paramount in providing them with the best care possible without making any errors. RFID technology enables IVF clinics in Vesu to efficiently provide care to their patients.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP)
Used in various fertility treatments, PRP is extremely helpful in enhancing the endometrium’s thickness and improving endometrial receptivity. Doctors often use PRP 48 hours prior to embryo transfer to increase the chances of conception, especially in cases of unexplained IVF failures.
Endometrial Receptivity Array (ERA)
IVF doctors at the best IVF centre in Vesu, Nova IVF Fertility, use advanced tools like ERA to check the receptivity of your endometrium to prepare for embryo transfer, enhancing pregnancy outcomes.
Laparoscopy Surgery
An advanced method of performing surgical procedures, laparoscopy facilitates doctors to examine the patient’s internal organs or operate on them through tiny incisions.
Blood Tests
Blood tests are essential in IVF treatment because they monitor the hormone levels and follow the progress of the cycle. These tests allow fertility specialists to modify the treatment plan and ensure the best conditions for embryo implantation. Regular blood tests are usually scheduled throughout the IVF treatment.
Hysterosalpingography (HSG) Test
The HSG test is a simple and effective test for detecting any blockage or abnormalities in fallopian tubes and the uterus. The doctors inject a special dye into the female’s uterus and use X-ray to observe the dye’s flow.
Semen Analysis Test
IVF specialists at Nova IVF hospital in Vesu recommend semen analysis to male patients for analysing the quality and quantity of sperm in their semen sample and providing vital details to guide the treatment plan.
Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET)
FET is the process of thawing a frozen embryo, which was preserved in the previous IVF cycle, and transferring it to the intended mother’s womb.
Fertility Testing
Fertility testing involves a variety of tests, including ultrasounds, blood tests, and semen analysis, to check the reproductive health of both partners. This helps doctors understand the cause of infertility and chart a suitable treatment plan.
Ovulation Induction
Ovulation induction involves administering hormonal therapy to facilitate the ovaries of a female undergoing IVF treatment to produce multiple eggs in one cycle, thereby improving the chances of successful fertilisation and conception.
Vasectomy Reversal
This birth control reversal surgery re-establishes a proper path for sperm to merge with seminal fluid from the prostate gland and move out of the penis during ejaculation, allowing for natural conception after a previous vasectomy.
Embryo Freezing
Embryo freezing is suggested to couples with surplus embryos in IVF treatment to maximise their chances of successful conception without repeating a complete IVF cycle in case the first attempt fails.
Genetic Screening
Genetic screening allows doctors to minimise the chance of your child being born with any genetic abnormality that may affect their quality of life.
