In-vitro Fertilization (IVF)
IVF is the most advanced Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART).
What is In-Vitro Fertilization?
IVF involves mixing and incubating sperm and egg(s) and inserting the resultant embryos into the female’s uterus.
With infertility affecting more than 6 million people across the United States, the IVF treatment process comes to the rescue of many who are unable to get pregnant despite trying for over a year.
In 2007, the IVF process accounted for over 99% of all ART (assisted reproductive technology) procedures in IVF clinics. IVFs can be sought by heterosexual and same-sex couples, and the procedure is capable of a reciprocal IVF which allows two females to be involved in the pregnancy.
Meet Shyla
An IVF that used her own eggs was the eventual answer to a long-standing struggle Shyla had with infertility.
After multiple miscarriages under a previous doctor that was unable or unwilling to find the root problem in Shyla’s infertility journey, she found Dr. Gelety.
Immediately, Dr. Gelety recommended a surgery to determine the impact of endometriosis on her chances of getting pregnant. It was determined that progesterone pills and shots administered strategically would increase the chances of a successful pregnancy.

We recognize that costs are always a consideration in a person’s fertility and parental journey, which is why we only recommend an IVF if we believe it is your best chance of getting and staying pregnant.
This is why we recommend an in-person consultation and initial screening for us to assess your unique circumstance and decide if IVF is the best medical foot forward.
