Fertility & Gynecology

Dr Alvaro Ascenzo is a gynecologist and specialist in fertility treatments. A gynecologist can diagnose and treat issues related to the female reproductive tract. This includes the uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries, and breasts.

Meanwhile, in-vitro fertilization, or IVF, is a type of assisted reproduction. The IVF procedure involves retrieving eggs from a woman’s ovaries and artificially fertilizing them with the man’s sperm. The fertilized egg (embryo) is transferred to the woman’s uterus.

IVF

In vitro fertilization is the combination of medications and a series of complex procedures focused on improving fertility and achieving the conception of a baby.

It consists of the union of the woman’s egg and the man’s sperm in a laboratory. This procedure is done outside the body and allows the sperm to attach to and enter the egg. The fertilised egg, called an embryo, is then returned to the woman’s womb to grow and develop, achieving pregnancy.

A Closer Look at Fertility & Infertility

Becoming parents is one of the most important moments for most people in their lives. However, not all couples can achieve it. Although this situation is unfortunate, there are a number treatments that can combat infertility.

Let’s start by understanding what infertility is and how it develops in each person.

Intrauterine Insemination

Intrauterine insemination involves putting sperm directly into the uterus while the woman is ovulating. Thus, it helps the sperm to get closer to the egg, improving chances of conception.

This also reduces the time and distance the sperm must travel, making it easier to fertilize the egg.

Intracytoplasmic Sperm Microinjection (ICSI)

Intracytoplasmic sperm microinjection, better known as the ICSI technique, is an assisted reproduction procedure. It is used in the treatment of in vitro fertilization and consists of injecting a single sperm directly into an ovulo.

Its purpose is to achieve fertilization and optimize the chances of achieving pregnancy.
