What is IVF? The Egg Whisperer Show
-
- Medicine
Odds are if you’re reading this then you’ve searched, “What is IVF?” on Google.
And that’s exactly why I’m doing this show. Just because IVF is more common does not mean you’re expected to know exactly what it means. No question is a dumb one. I want to start by sharing what IVF means to me.
Dr. Aimee’s definition of IVF = Is Very Fun.
Okay, so maybe it’s not the most fun you could have. It’s hard work. However, I consider it a really efficient way to get pregnant. And that it is worth calling fun. The technology has changed and it makes it an amazing time to be a fertility doctor. There are people I’m helping in 2020 that I may not have been able to help even six years ago.
In this episode:
- you'll learn what IVF is, and what it is not.
- I'm dispelling some myths that are out there about IVF, and explaining some of the anatomy and physiology of the procedure.
- I'll also walk through the growth of a fertilized egg, so you will know what to expect.
- I'll explain when IVF is a great option for you.
- you'll hear all about the IVF calendar I use with my patients
- we talk about Egg Retrieval day
- I address creating a plan for unused eggs or embryos
- you'll learn about the IVF Attrition Pyramid
- we talk about the TUSHY Method and your Fertility TEAM
