About the In Vitro Fertilization Center at Gaziosmanpasa Hospital of Yeniyuzyil University

The In Vitro Fertilization Center at the Gaziosmanpasa Hospital of Yeniyuzyil University specializes in fertility treatment. To this end, it uses one of the most modern and effective methods – in vitro fertilization (IVF) procedure. A competent medical team of the experienced obstetricians, urologists, gynecologists, specialists in reproductive medicine and specially trained nursing staff works here. The department is proud of the results of its work and annually helps many women to attain the joy of motherhood. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Kutluk Oktay. The doctor has a tremendous experience in the field of his specialization, he has completed many internships in America and he is a member of numerous professional American and Turkish societies.

In vitro fertilization occurs outside the woman's body, in artificial conditions. A healthy egg and a healthy sperm cell are connected in vitro. The process results in an embryo, which is transferred to the uterine cavity, where its further natural development takes place, which ends with the birth of a healthy baby. The IVF procedure consists of the following steps:

  • Ovarian stimulation. The doctor administers a drug into the woman’s body, which serves to prepare the body for the subsequent hormonal stimulation. After a short period of time, the follicles are stimulated with a drug, which increases their growth. All the manipulations are performed under ultrasound guidance.
  • Follicular puncture. This is the next step towards a long-awaited pregnancy. Once the follicles reach the required size, the doctor pulls out the follicular fluid with the egg using a puncture needle. The procedure is performed with anesthesia.
  • Embryo culture. For the next step, the ovules are extracted from the follicular fluid and the sperm is processed using the necessary methods. The eggs and sperm cells are placed on a nutrient medium, in an incubator, where the fertilization takes place. At this stage, the embryo growth lasts from 3 to 6 days.
  • Embryo transfer to the uterine cavity. The embryos are transferred into the uterine cavity with the help of a special flexible catheter under ultrasound guidance. This procedure does not cause painful or unpleasant sensations.
  • Diagnostics of pregnancy. Two weeks after the embryo transfer into the uterine cavity, a woman undergoes a hCG blood test. This is the earliest and the most reliable pregnancy test.

The in vitro fertilization is an excellent option for the following pathological conditions:

  • Fallopian tube obstruction
  • Impaired sperm quantity and quality 
  • Some hormonal disorders
  • Infertility without identified causes
  • Abdominal adhesions caused by endometriosis and the inability to become pregnant after treatment
  • Infertility due to immunological incompatibility
  • Inability to get pregnant after using other methods of artificial insemination
  • Necessity for the early diagnostics of hereditary diseases in the fetus (at the embryonic stage)
  • Other problems that may cause infertility
