IVF Center Selection and Its Importance

The importance of choosing a center in IVF treatment

In vitro fertilization is a method that has been frequently used in recent years and is very useful for couples with infertility to have a baby. The most important stages of treatment are; definitely deciding on treatment, insisting on the decision and choosing an in vitro fertilization center .


The center where the IVF treatment will be performed should be selected carefully and all questions that will determine the course and outcome of the treatment should be answered through this center. If almost all of these questions are answered by the treatment center and the answers given satisfy the patients, then this center is really the desired place. The questions to be researched and answered before choosing a center for IVF treatment are as follows:

  • How long has the center been operating actively?

  • How effective the center is in informing couples,

  • The suitability of the IVF center in terms of hygiene and environmental conditions,

  • Thoughts of references who have been treated at the center,

  • The success rate during embryo freezing and thawing procedures,

  • Taking the age limit as 35, how many treatments are applied to people under and over this age?

  • Pregnancy success rate according to the number of embryos transferred

  • Embryo freezing percentage in patients,

  • Accreditation documents of the center,

  • Existence of a genetic laboratory that works in collaboration with the IVF center .



What are the other points to consider when choosing an IVF center?

One of the first elements to be considered when choosing an IVF center is the doctor's sincerity with his patients, the credibility of his words and his references. Meanwhile, another point to be considered when deciding on an IVF center is to determine the exact cause of infertility. When the diagnosis is correct, the treatment will also be correct. The doctor should answer every question in the patients without leaving any room for hesitation and should have a satisfactory attitude. The doctor should see the patients not only as a doctor but also as a friend, as someone with whom they can share their problems. Of course, it will be effective to talk only about the doctor's attitudes and what he should do, but it should not be forgotten that IVF treatment is teamwork and the rest of the team should have the same attitude.


The effects of center selection on success in in vitro fertilization treatment

It will not be enough to guarantee that pregnancy will occur in the treatment alone. It is necessary to guarantee that you will be monitored by the doctors and team at all stages of the treatment , and there should be concrete developments that this will happen. Treatment should definitely not be perceived as a trade, and the words of IVF centers that use phrases such as "we have a 100% guarantee for the treatment" should not be trusted as much as possible. Stating this will cause the patient to look askance at the second treatment and to respond negatively to the treatment again. Patients should be warned and informed about all possibilities from the beginning of the treatment.


IVF treatment has become a source of hope for couples who cannot have children, especially in recent years, as a result of the development of technology and the perception of this in the medical field. Couples who believe that the right time has come for them after getting married naturally want a baby. If pregnancy does not occur, couples should apply for a doctor's check-up after observing this situation for a year. After the doctor's check-ups, all possibilities such as which one of the couples has a problem, and if there is a problem in both couples, how much it is, are taken into consideration and the necessary treatment methods are determined. After the procedures are carried out in order depending on the determined treatment method, pregnancy is created and the rest of the treatment continues with the control of the baby's development.


In recent years, after the widespread use of IVF treatment, many IVF centers have started operating in our country. However, IVF centers with inadequate equipment and techniques can sometimes cause irreversible events in couples hoping to have a baby. Considering that the most important element in treatment is morale and determination; it is a bad situation that couples are cold towards treatment due to the mistakes made by the IVF center .


IVF treatment is a very expensive method when applied meticulously and without skipping any details. Therefore, we recommend that the demand for IVF centers with low costs be reduced and detailed research be done.
