FAQ – IVF Springs

Most Common Questions

At what age does fertility start to decline?

Fertility typically begins to decline in your early 30s, with a more noticeable drop after 35. However, age is just one factor overall health, egg reserve, and other variables also play a role.

What is the difference between IUI and IVF?

IUI (Intrauterine Insemination) involves placing prepared sperm directly into the uterus around ovulation. IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) involves retrieving eggs, fertilizing them in a lab, then transferring embryos back to the uterus. The best option depends on your diagnosis, goals, and response to treatment.

Can I take prenatal vitamins or supplements post-transfer?

Doctors will suggest supplements that best support your treatment and recovery. Recommendations are always tailored to your individual care plan.

What are early pregnancy symptoms after IVF?

Symptoms can feel similar to PMS like cramping, bloating, breast tenderness, or mood shifts. Some people experience no symptoms at all. A confirmed pregnancy can only be determined through testing.

When should I schedule the next IVF cycle if this one doesn't work?

The timing for your next IVF cycle can vary. It often depends on how your body responds and how you’re feeling emotionally. Some people start after one cycle; others take more time.

Are fertility treatments painful?

Most treatments are quick and gentle, with minimal discomfort—often compared to a routine blood test or pap smear. Your comfort is our priority, and we’ll walk you through every step with care and support.

IVF Treatment

Is IVF treatment painful?

Most IVF injections use very fine needles and require no anesthesia. Egg retrieval is performed under light sedation, so you won’t feel pain. Embryo transfer takes 5–10 minutes and can feel slightly uncomfortable, but it isn’t painful.

How long does an IVF cycle take?

A standard cycle—from ovulation induction through embryo transfer—takes about 4–6 weeks. If we recommend mind-body therapies to improve egg or sperm quality, your specialist will adjust the timeline accordingly.

Can I undergo IVF if I have medical conditions like PCOS or endometriosis?

Yes. Conditions such as PCOS, endometriosis, thyroid disorders or fibroids often require extra monitoring or preparation, but they don’t automatically rule out IVF. A thorough evaluation lets us tailor the safest, most effective approach for you.

Are IVF-conceived babies healthy and “normal”?

Absolutely—IVF babies are just as healthy as those conceived naturally. Decades of research confirm no increase in birth defects or long-term health issues.
