Minimal Stimulation IVF

In recent years, Minimal Stimulation IVF has been growing in popularity through mainstream media reports. Minimal Stimulation IVF is steadily becoming the preferred method of treatment for many couples faced with the challenges of overcoming infertility.

Minimal Stimulation IVF

This IVF treatment option is preferred for couples who want to use an oral fertility medication – Clomid – instead of high dose injectable drugs to stimulate the ovaries.Using a combination of oral and low dose injectable medications, the goal of a Minimal Stimulation IVF cycle is to retrieve a few – high quality – eggs and reduce the risk of Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS) caused by high dose injectable medications.

Minimal Stimulation IVF

Like a standard IVF, Minimal Stimulation IVF treatments require:

  • Oral fertility medication (Clomid),
  • Cycle monitoring on a frequent basis – blood testing and sonograms,
  • Injectable hCG trigger,
  • Egg retrieval conducted in an outpatient surgical procedure under anesthesia,
  • Egg fertilization and embryo development in an IVF laboratory,
  • Progesterone supplementation via vaginal suppositories, and
  • Embryo transfer into the uterus.

Benefits and Cost Effectiveness of Minimal Stimulation IVF

Minimal Stimulation IVF procedure is less expensive than a standard IVF treatment because there are less medication costs incurred for the patient. The reduced risk of OHSS is another benefit of Minimal Stimulation IVF.
