Infertility Treatments
Effective Solutions on the Path to Parenthood
Infertility is defined as the inability of a couple to achieve pregnancy after one year of regular, unprotected sexual intercourse. Today, with the advancement of medical techniques, there are many successful treatment options available for infertility. With proper evaluation and treatment, many couples are able to have children.
Evaluation of the Infertile Couple
The first step in infertility treatment is a thorough evaluation of the couple. Both male and female factors are investigated to develop an appropriate treatment plan. During this evaluation process:
Male Infertility
Male infertility accounts for approximately 40% of infertility cases in couples.
Sperm Count and Quality: Low sperm count or insufficient sperm motility.
Varicocele: Enlarged veins in the testicles negatively affect sperm production.
Hormonal Disorders: Testosterone imbalances.
Infections and Genetic Factors: Infections in the reproductive system or genetic abnormalities.
For male infertility, medication treatments, surgical interventions, and assisted reproductive techniques can be applied.
Female Infertility
auses of female infertility include hormonal imbalances, ovulation disorders, and fallopian tube blockages. Common causes of female-related infertility are as follows:
- Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): A hormonal disorder that prevents ovulation.
- Endometriosis: Growth of uterine lining tissue outside the uterus, affecting the ovaries and fallopian tubes.
- Blocked Fallopian Tubes: Loss of tube function due to past infections or surgeries.
- Advanced Age and Low Ovarian Reserve: A decrease in the number and quality of eggs in women over the age of 35.
Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial in female infertility.
Ovulation Induction
Ovulation induction is a medication treatment used to regulate and stimulate ovulation. In this method:
- Medications are used to stimulate the ovaries,
- Ovulation timing is monitored, and couples are advised on the most suitable time for intercourse.
- This treatment method is particularly effective for women experiencing ovulation problems.
Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)
Insemination is the process of preparing sperm in the laboratory and placing them directly into the uterus. It is especially used in cases of mild male factor infertility or unexplained infertility. The insemination procedure is performed as follows:
- Ovulation treatment is applied to the prospective mother,
- Ovulation timing is monitored, and the prepared sperm is injected into the uterus.
- The insemination method is an effective option to increase the chances of pregnancy naturally.
In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)
The IVF method is one of the most successful assisted reproductive techniques. The IVF process consists of the following stages:
1. Ovarian Stimulation: Hormonal treatment is applied to promote the development of eggs.
2. Egg Retrieval (OPU): Mature eggs are collected and taken to the laboratory.
3. Fertilization and Embryo Development: Eggs are fertilized with sperm to create embryos.
4. Embryo Transfer: Healthy embryos are transferred into the uterus.
IVF treatment can provide successful results in cases such as advanced age, tubal blockage, and severe male infertility.
Hysterosalpingography (HSG Film)
Hysterosalpingography is a special X-ray technique used to evaluate whether the uterus and fallopian tubes are open. Through the HSG test:
- It is determined whether the fallopian tubes are blocked,
- Structural problems within the uterus are identified.
- After the HSG test, some women may conceive naturally, as small blockages in the tubes can be cleared during the procedure.
