PGD (Pre-implantation Genetic Diagnostic)
PREIMPLANTATION GENETIC DIAGNOSIS
In recent years, developments in genetics allow genetic analysis to be carried out on embryos developed in vitro by in vitro fertilization ethods and the placement of selected healthy embryos in the uterus of the mother before pregnancy occurs. This method is called pre- regnancy genetic diagnosis (Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis-PGD).
One of the most important application areas of the PGT technique embryos that do not have a genetic disease but may not have a genetic disorder in their chromosomes.
These disorders are more common in women of advanced age (35 years and older). This situation may result in infertility as it both reduces the chance of attachment of the embryo (implantation) and may cause unwanted abortions. As a matter of fact, 40 out of every 100 pregnancies in women aged 39 and over have problems that occur due to a numerical chromosomal disorder
The aim of PGD is to increase implantation rates, reduce spontaneous abortions and increase healthy baby birth rates by selecting hromosomally normal embryos. Indeed, the miscarriage rate, which can reach up to 23 percent in normal pregnancy due to chromosomal disorders, may decrease to 9 percent after PGD.
Pre-pregnancy genetic diagnosis is performed by taking 1 or 2 cells from embryos developed as a result of fertilization of egg and sperm cells obtained from mother and father candidates in laboratory environment. Special methods called Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH), Microarray-based comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) or Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) are used for genetic diagnosis. Diagnosis of numerical chromosomal disorders such as monosomy or trisomy (Down syndrome and other trisomies) and single gene diseases (such as hemophilia, Mediterranean anemia, cystic fibrosis, muscular dystrophies) in the baby to be born is possible with PGD. Thus, healthy babies are born by transferring disease-free, healthy embryos to the expectant mother.
DIAGNOSIS BEFORE PREGNANCY
- In couples with a genetic or hereditary disease carrier,
- In couples who have a child or children with a previous genetic disease,
- For the purpose of HLA genotyping (tissue typing),
- In the identification of diseases showing genetic predisposition (tendency)
- Women in the advanced age group (37 years and over) who have been accepted for assisted reproductive techniques,
- In couples with recurrent early pregnancy miscarriages,
- In couples who could not achieve pregnancy with assisted reproductive techniques despite multiple applications or who lost their pregnancy due to miscarriage,
- It is applied in cases of chromosomal disorders or genetic diseases associated with severe male infertility.
HOW IS THE PGT TEST DONE?
- Whether the patient is suitable for PGD is evaluated by the reproductive health specialist, genetic counselor and the doctor of the related disease.
- The couple is prepared for the IVF procedure.
- The egg taken from the mother is fertilized in the laboratory with the sperm taken from the father.
- 1-2 blastomere cells are removed from the obtained embryo by biopsy by embryologists
- Cells obtained by biopsy are prepared and tested according to the method to be applied.
- Embryos with genetic diseases or chromosomal disorders are selected and discarded and healthy embryos are transferred to the mothers womb.
Calcium Ionophore Application
It is a method of activating eggs and ensuring fertilization by using calcium ionophore (calcium ionophore) in cases where embryo transfer cannot be performed due to lack of fertilization during IVF treatment.
In the calcium ionophore application, first the egg and sperm are fertilized by micro-injection (ICSI); Then the eggs are kept in a medium containing calcium ionophore for a while. The main purpose here is to artificially increase the calcium level, which should increase in the egg after the sperm enters the egg. In other words, by supporting the reactions that should start in the egg, the egg is forced to be fertilized. With this procedure, a healthy fertilization and therefore a high pregnancy rate can be achieved.
Calcium ionophore therapy has been shown to be successful in the following situations:
- In patients with “globosperm” of all sperms
- If very few eggs or sperm are obtained
- Recurrent fertilization (fertilization) failures
- In cases where no fertilization can be achieved with micro-injection therapy
Microchip
In patients with low sperm viability, quantity, number and structural quality, microfluidic technology, also known as the "chip baby method", ensures that the best quality sperm cells are selected by competing with each other in a way similar to the natural environment in the uterus, and ICSI is defined in in vitro fertilization treatment. With the application, it is left into the egg cell by microinjection method.
In this method, sperm cells with the best structural form, genetics and physiology are selected without causing cell damage, since techniques such as centrifugation (settling), vortex (mixing with high vibration) or mixing with a pipette are not applied to the sperm cells, which can physically damage the sperm cells. In classical preparation methods, sperm cells are prepared in a shorter time without being subjected to manipulation by skipping processes such as washing, flotation, gradient (grading), centrifugation (precipitation at high speeds). Thus, the sperm cells with the best DNA quality and physiologically are selected by themselves, and the sperm cells that pass this pre-screening are again screened under the microscope and the sperm cells of excellent quality are used for microinjection.
The above-mentioned classical preparation methods cause sperm cells to undergo respiratory stress, known as oxidative stress, and it has been scientifically proven that this can also cause DNA damage in healthy sperm cells. Better quality embryos are tried to be obtained with sperm cells that have been proven to be of the best quality by scientific data, and thus embryos with the highest potential for implantation (attachment) and development are obtained. The average total mobility in suckling samples taken from male individuals with microchip technology increased by 1.7 times.
The sperm cells obtained by this method were found 3 times faster than the classical preparation methods, and the forward motile sperm cells increased 3.8 times.
How many times can IVF treatment be tried?
IVF treatment, which is preferred by couples who cannot conceive naturally and cannot have children, is a source of hope for couples who cannot have children due to the development of medicine and technology. IVF treatment is the fertilization of male and female reproductive cells outside the body under laboratory conditions. Currently, couples have a 95 percent chance of success with IVF treatments. IVF treatment is one of the most successful methods in the treatment of infertility, the cause of which is not clear, or which cannot be conceived in the most natural ways. If couples do not succeed in their first attempts at IVF treatments, they should not despair and stress immediately. Because there are no restrictions on IVF treatment.
How many times can IVF treatment be tried?
A study conducted on couples undergoing IVF treatment shows that the rate of achieving pregnancy in couples after the first three trials is 95 percent. In addition, no number can be given about the number of treatments in the remaining group. The experts are also 4. or 5. there is an opinion that the chances of IVF success in trials are slightly lower than in the first three trials. The success rate of IVF treatment does not depend on many attempts. Multiple factors, such as the age of the couples, obtaining a quality embryo, affect the success rate of IVF treatment at a critical point.
Is Success Achieved in the First Attempt in IVF?
The chances of pregnancy during the one-month treatment period with the insemination method or ovulation treatments are about 20% or slightly more than the chances of a healthy couple becoming pregnant in a month. These treatments can be tried 3 or 4 times until pregnancy is achieved, but most of the pregnancies are obtained in the first months of treatment. Continuing treatment for more than 4 years will not increase the chances of pregnancy, so you can switch to IVF treatment.
Currently, thanks to newly developed methods and applications, the success rate of in vitro fertilization treatment is gradually increasing, if success is not achieved at the first attempt, repeated attempts can be made. The chance of becoming pregnant in a month with IVF treatments varies depending on age, but on average it is up to 50-60%. Pregnancy rates can increase by more than 90% after 4 applications when more than one treatment is performed in a row. For this reason, the chances of becoming pregnant increase with the number of attempts in couples who do not have a specific problem.
THE PROCESS AFTER FAILED IVF AND FACTORS AFFECTING SUCCESS
IVF treatment; It is the method that offers the highest chance of pregnancy for couples who want to have a baby but cannot conceive naturally. In vitro fertilization method can be applied as a result of unprotected intercourse for more than 1 year, when pregnancy does not occur. Although it is a successful method, it may not always be possible to achieve 100% success in IVF treatments. There are many factors that determine the probability of successful IVF treatment.
What Factors Depends on Success in IVF Treatment?
In IVF treatment, it is aimed to catch pregnancy in the first time, but pregnancy is not possible for every woman at once. Factors affecting the success of IVF treatment include the age of the expectant mother, weight status, problems in the uterus, hydrosalpinx in the tubes, immune system problems, smoking degree, alcohol use rate, and decreased ovarian reserve. With this; Various male-related conditions such as sperm immobility, severe deformities, and absence of sperm in the semen also affect the success rate of IVF treatment. General statistical data can give you information about the success rate in IVF treatment, but it should not be forgotten that every couple is very special and unique. In IVF treatment, your doctor can better determine your individual chances, taking into account your personalized factors.
What are the Risks of IVF Treatment?
As with any treatment, there are some risks in IVF treatment. However, some of these risks, which are likely to be encountered in IVF treatment, are predictable and can be intervened early, although these risks are very rare. We can list these risks as follows: Mild bruising, swelling and pain may occur in the areas where the drugs were injected. Overstimulation of the eggs can result in weight gain, nausea, vomiting and bloating. There may be a risk of ectopic pregnancy. Bleeding may occur during egg collection.
What Should Be Done After Unsuccessful IVF?
Failure of one or more IVF attempts can be extremely challenging, disappointing couples. This situation is extremely natural. One of the most important reasons for a failed IVF treatment is poor embryo quality. Defective and damaged embryos cannot be attached to the uterus after they are transferred to the uterus. However, in some cases, pregnancy may not be achieved despite transferring good quality embryos. Your doctor will evaluate the reasons for the failure of your IVF process in detail to determine what the problem is. These points will be taken into account in future attempts after the problem is determined. Taking a break for at least a month after a failed IVF attempt will also be very beneficial for the process. As developments in the field of medicine increase, it becomes easier to detect and eliminate negative situations. It is important that couples who fail their first IVF attempt should not despair. When conditions are improved, the chances of pregnancy will be higher in subsequent attempts.
What Is insemination? How Is It Done?
There are 2 treatment methods most commonly preferred by couples who want to have a baby but do not have a baby for various reasons. One of them is in vitro fertilization treatment and the other is insemination method. In our article, we will try to answer the most frequently asked questions about the vaccination method, what is insemination and how it is done.
What is insemination?
If couples cannot get a pregnancy result after one year after unprotected sexual intercourse, infertility is diagnosed. Infertility can have many causes, depending on the woman and the man. Thanks to science and developing technology, there are now many treatment methods for infertility. One of these methods is the vaccination method. In its simplest form, the method of vaccination is to prepare the sperm in the laboratory and inoculate the woman's uterus at the time of ovulation to ensure fertilization. In order for the vaccination method to be performed, some tests must be done to make sure that there is no problem in the uterus of the expectant mother. In addition, at least one of the tubes of the expectant mother must be in working condition. The purpose of the vaccination method is to select the motile, normal sperm with a higher probability of fertilization and send them to the uterus of the expectant mother. Thus, it will be more likely to be fertilized with eggs and selected sperm supported by drugs or pills.
How is insemination done?
Before the insemination method, the development of the egg is supported with pills or low-dose injections given to the expectant mother. During this process, the egg is tracked. When the eggs mature and reach certain sizes, a cracking needle is given and the eggs are cracked. Just at this time of cracking, the sperm prepared in the laboratory are transferred to the uterus. Thus, the most suitable time of ovulation is provided for the woman and the best sperm are transferred to the uterus at the right time. insemination is a natural method. Only sperms that will increase the probability of fertilization are carefully selected. From the sperms taken from the father-to-be, those that are of good quality, motile and washed in a certain number, that is, processed. As Hüma IVF Center team, we tried to give information about what is insemination and how it is done in our article. We hope it was useful. You can contact us via our website to get more detailed information about IVF treatment or to ask your questions.
WHAT IS EMBRYO GLUE? HOW AND WHO USE IT? IS THE SUCCESS RATE HIGH?
As couples who want to become parents cannot become parents with natural methods, couples resort to some treatments. In vitro fertilization is the first treatment method. And IVF treatment is a very advanced and effective treatment method. Some applications in IVF treatment are important for the positive outcome of the treatment. Embryo glue application, which is one of the important application methods, is a very successful application. Embryo glue is one of the applications without any known risk. As a result of the studies, it was concluded that it did not increase the risk of miscarriage or pregnancy complications. Now we will provide you with detailed information about embryo glue. We wish you pleasant reading.
What is Embryo Adhesive?
Embryo glue, a method used in IVF treatments, is a kind of liquid embryo culture medium enriched with a substance called hyaluronan, in which embryos are left before transfer to the uterus of the expectant mother.
Hyaluronan is a natural carbohydrate found in all tissues in the body. The embryo needs an environment rich in carbohydrates, amino acids and protein in order to develop healthily inside. In addition, embryo glue is also called embryo glue because it reduces the ability of the embryo to move in the uterus.
How and Who Is Embryo Adhesive Used?
Embryo adhesive application is done as follows:
After the embryos are developed in the laboratory for 3-5 days, the most suitable one for embryo transfer is selected.
· The most suitable embryos selected for transfer are taken into the embryo glue.
· Embryos are kept in this environment for about 30 minutes.
· After standing, the embryos are taken from the culture dish and drawn into the catheter (a thin tube).
· The catheter is then passed through the cervix under ultrasound guidance and the embryos are transferred to the uterus.
In expectant mothers who have repeated in vitro fertilization failure using the embryo glue method,
It is used in couples who want to have children over the age of 35, when the quality of the embryo depending on the egg or sperm is not very good.
Is the Success Rate High in Embryo Bonding?
Embryo adhesive is one of the most frequently used applications for the last 10 years in order to increase the chance of success in IVF treatment. Experts were unsure about the effectiveness of embryo glue at first. However, in recent years, the effectiveness of embryo glue has been observed as a result of scientific research. Today, embryo glue is applied by various IVF centers. Hüma IVF Center is one of these centers.
The high concentration of hyaluronan concentrates the embryo glue similar to the tissue of the fluids in the womb, so that better mixing of these fluids minimizes the mobility of the embryo. In addition, hyaluronan acts as a bridge between the embryo and the inner wall of the uterus by binding to the inner wall of the uterus and the molecules on the surface of the embryo. In this way, it helps the embryo to attach to the uterus.
We aimed to give you information on this subject by considering the embryo glue method. We talked about how this method is applied and its success rate.
WHAT IS INTRALPID SERUM TREATMENT? WHO IS APPLIED?
WHAT IS INTRALPID SERUM TREATMENT? WHO IS APPLIED?
Intralipid serum therapy emerges as a form of treatment applied to women who want to become pregnant but cannot achieve this goal as a result of recurrent IVF failures. It is extremely important that the immune system is strong during IVF treatment. Intralipid serum therapy is a method used at this point to strengthen the immune system.
Intralipid serum treatment is started to be applied to women who want to become pregnant before starting IVF treatment. What are the details of intralipid treatment? Who is intralipid serum therapy applied to? How is intralipid serum therapy applied? Now we will be giving answers to all these questions for you below.
What is Intralipid Therapy?
Intralipid serum therapy is a treatment for women who want to become mothers. Intralipid serum is a treatment method that starts on the day of transfer and continues throughout the process in IVF treatment. Intralipid serum contains many important proteins and molecules for the immune system. Thanks to this serum, it is aimed to keep the immune system of the expectant mother strong during pregnancy by supporting the immune system.
To Whom Is Intralipid Serum Treatment Applied?
Intralipid serum therapy is a treatment for women who want to become mothers, but only for those who have experienced miscarriage problems or who have experienced IVF failures. The purpose of this treatment is to ensure that the immunity of the expectant mother remains strong throughout the pregnancy process.
As a result of the information obtained, it has been proven that intralipid serum therapy does not have any side effects. However, some women may be allergic to the substances in the intralipid serum. At this point, good research should be done before starting the treatment and if there is no allergic condition, treatment should be applied.
How is Intralipid Serum Treatment Applied?
Parents who want to have a child can resort to many ways for pregnancy to occur. In vitro fertilization, which has been very popular recently, has been determined as the most successful assisted reproductive method. If there are recurrent failures as a result of IVF treatment, this problem can be eliminated with intralipid serum treatment. Intralipid serum therapy is an extremely effective and successful form of treatment.
Intralipid serum treatment is administered to the expectant mother by intravenous route, with a preparation containing emulsified oil, prepared with a special concentration, which takes approximately 45 minutes. In other words, the patient's immune system is supported by giving oily serums intravenously.
In this article, we have given detailed explanations about inralipid serum therapy and that parents can receive intralipid serum treatment in cases where pregnancy does not occur due to some reasons.

What is IVF? How is IVF Treatment Performed?
IVF treatment, which is one of the methods of treatment that helps reproduction, begins with the collection of eggs from the expectant mother and the removal of sperm cells from the expectant father. The embryo, which appeared after the fertilization was carried out in the laboratory environment, is placed in the womb of the expectant mother. From this point on, pregnancy continues like a pregnancy acquired by natural means.
When should couples who cannot have children turn to IVF treatment?
A woman under the age of 35 who does not have any diseases that can prevent her from becoming pregnant should definitely be examined if she cannot conceive despite having unprotected and regular sexual intercourse for 1 year and seek treatment if deemed necessary. Women who are over the age of 35 or who have previously had any problems affecting conception should only try for 6 months.
How is IVF Performed? What are the Necessary Conditions?
In vitro fertilization can be defined as the process of placing the healthiest embryo in the womb obtained as a result of fertilization of eggs collected from the expectant mother with the sperm of the expectant father in the laboratory environment. Before starting IVF treatment, the reproductive abilities of both a man and a woman are evaluated. Then hormone therapy is started to allow the expectant mother's eggs to enter the maturation process. Then, a cracking needle is made and the eggs are released from the follicles. During the egg collection process, the ripening eggs of the expectant mother are collected with the help of transvaginal ultrasound. At this time, sperm cells are taken from the expectant father.
Fertilization is achieved by means of reproductive cells that are brought together in a laboratory environment dec The healthiest of the embryos that occur, or in other words, the best IVF, is transferred to the expectant mother's uterus accompanied by ultrasound. After about half an hour after this procedure, the couple is sent home. In some cases, more than one embryo needs to be transferred to the mother's womb.
WHAT IS THE SPERMIOGRAM TEST FOR ANALYSIS OF SPERM CELL?
Parents who want to have children generally prefer the most common in vitro fertilization treatment. Before this treatment, both mother-to-be and father-to-be go through many tests. Father-to-be passed; The first of the tests to test for infertility or other problems is the sperm test, also known as the spermiogram test. What is the spermiogram test for the analysis of the sperm cell? How is spermiogram done? What do spermiogram test results mean? We will answer all these questions for you in detail below. We recommend that you continue reading our article to have detailed information about the sperm test.
What is a test (spermiogram)?
Sperm test done to men; It is a test to determine sperm health, sperm count, and whether the sperm are moving correctly in the channels. As a result of the sperm test, if the sperm shape is normal and there is a sufficient number of sperm, it is concluded that your reproductive ability is high. However, in some cases, men may have low sperm count or the ability to reproduce despite having abnormal semen. That's why doctors order a second test for the accuracy of the results. If your results are normal in your first sperm test, you give the other test and if it is normal, these two normal tests show that you do not have an infertility problem. If there are different conditions, your doctor may order other tests.
If there is no semen or sperm as a result of the sperm test, this may indicate that your ducts are blocked. If this is the case, your doctor will plan different surgeries to open the channels.
Issues and Precautions to Consider While Giving Sperm Sample
There are important points to be considered before giving the sperm sample and while giving the sperm sample. Among the things to be considered before giving a sperm sample, we can count that "men should abstain from sexual intercourse for 3 days". Fasting for 3 to 5 days is sufficient. These numbers are important because if you fast for less than 3 days, the sperm count may be low as a result of the sperm test. For this reason, we can say that fasting between 3 and 5 days is sufficient. It is possible to list the issues to be considered while giving a sperm sample as follows;
· Storing the sample in a sterile environment: It is important to protect your sample from the outside environment for a healthy and accurate spermiogram test result. If a sterile environment is not provided, the test result may be inaccurate. Therefore, do not put your hands, especially sample containers, etc. It is important that you keep it as sterile as possible.
· Protecting the delivered sperm from heat: Another important point is to keep your sample away from extreme temperature changes after ejaculation. Because these extreme temperature changes negatively affect spermatozoa. Ideal temperatures for the sample cup should be between 20°C and 37°C.
· Sperm volume, amount: Volume is extremely important in the sperm test. Your sperm volume is expected to be at least 1.5 ml. The reason why you cannot reach the lower limit of 1.5 ml may be external discharge during ejaculation. It is important to be careful about this.
· Use of lubricating foreign substances during the sperm test: It is important not to use any lubricant during the sperm test because these substances seriously affect the sperm parameters. External factors with such an impact can lead to wrong conclusions.
How is the Sperm Test Done?
For the sperm test, you must first be at the IVF center or hospital. There are rooms specially prepared for men in hospitals or IVF centers. In these rooms, men give their sperm in a special container. For the effectiveness of the sperm test, the sperm sample is immediately delivered to the laboratory. The sperm sample given in the laboratory is subjected to many processes and the best quality sperms are selected. The purpose of the procedures is to examine the sperm count, motility and shape in the semen and to reach quality sperm as a result.
Apart from the hospital, sperm samples can be placed in a container and brought to the hospital in the home environment. However, this is highly not recommended. Even if this is accepted, the sperm samples should be brought to the hospital and delivered within half an hour.

Issues and Precautions to Consider When Analyzing Sperm Sample
After the sperm test is given by the prospective fathers, it is examined in the laboratory environment. This examination takes approximately 1-2 hours and after the first hour, active results begin to be obtained. However, sometimes different situations can be encountered. For example, the test is given, but no sperm can be seen when looked at. In these cases, sperm are taken again and centrifuged. When faced with such a situation, the time may be extended. If there is no additional test to be done, the test results are immediately available in an average of 1-1.5 hours.
What Do Sperm Test Results Mean?
Sperm test results can be evaluated in many ways. Sperm analysis evaluates the sperm by analyzing it from various aspects. We can list these analyzes as follows:
· Sperm count and density:
Sperm count describes the number of sperm in 1 ml of semen. The World Health Organization advocates that a normal sperm count should be at least 15 million per ml or at least 39 million per sample. Having fewer sperm than these numbers indicates a low sperm count.
· Sperm morphology:
Non-abnormal sperm have a long tail and oval head. Morphology refers to the size and shape of the sperm a person has. Sperm that do not have a normal size or are weak in shape have difficulty reaching the egg and fertilization.
· Sperm motility:
The ability of sperm to move efficiently is one of the most important factors for fertilization.
· PH level of sperm:
When the pH level is too high or too low, it can affect the health of sperm and its ability to pass through the female reproductive tract.
Apart from these, sperm health is examined by looking at many factors such as semen volume, liquefaction, and seminal fructose levels while performing the sperm test. After examining all factors in detail, the results are examined and reported to the patient.
What is the Sperm Test Result of a Healthy Individual?
Low sperm count can have many different causes. The first reason is smoking addiction. Smoking addiction is one of the important factors that reduce the sperm count. In addition to smoking, alcohol and drug addiction also affect sperm count. Sperm count can also be adversely affected when there is a deficiency in hormones, depending on the clogged ducts.
Hormones are one of the important factors for reproduction on their own. Since the deficiency in reproductive hormones directly affects sperm production, it increases the possibility of encountering problems in reproduction. Apart from these, mistakes made by couples who want to have children also affect the sperm count. Using natural products unconsciously and continuing to use them uncontrollably, without knowing the limit, does harm to the person instead of providing benefits. Long-term treatment and drugs used during the treatment also affect the sperm count.
IMSI in Sperm Selection
The IMSI (Intracytoplasmic Morpholgically Selected Sperm Injection) method is the magnification and examination of even the smallest cells using special microscopes. In the past, in the microinjection procedures applied in IVF treatments, living sperm cells could be enlarged up to 400 times. However, with IMSI, sperm can now be enlarged between 6000 and 8000 times. It is possible to examine and detect in detail the disorders called "vacuoles" that indicate the intracellular structures of the sperm and their genetic damage.
The IMSI technique is an extremely useful method. Selected sperm injection; It allows advanced morphological analysis of sperm without damaging the living sperm cell. Sperm with the highest fertilization ability are selected and a high chance of fertilization between 20% and 40% can be obtained with the applied microinjection application.
Precautions to be Considered for Sperm Quality
Couples who want to have children should pay attention to egg and sperm health and be careful in this regard. There are many factors that affect sperm quality, such as those that affect egg quality. One of these factors is undoubtedly a healthy diet. A healthy diet is extremely important for every organ in the body, of course also in sperm health.
In addition, exercise is very important in making you more vigorous and increasing your body's stamina and activity. Regular exercise will make you recover in a short time and will positively affect both your mental and physical health. Alcohol and smoking are substances that affect reproductive cells and should be avoided. This is a proven fact as a result of research. If we gather all these under one title, we can say that one should take care of his own health. Nutrition, avoiding alcohol, smoking, exercising regularly will first affect your health and therefore your sperm quality.
This process, which is sensitive and special for couples who want to have a child, is extremely important for them. In this process, prospective parents experience excitement on the one hand and a lot of stress on the other. Hüma IVF Center, which understands the emotions experienced best and does not spare its support by being by their side throughout the process, is always ready to accompany you.
WHAT IS BETA HCG? HOW MUCH BETA HCG VALUE SHOULD BE? WHAT DOES ITS LOW AND HEIGHT MEAN?
Beta HCG hormone is a hormone known as the pregnancy hormone among the people. It is used in pregnancy tests to determine whether the person is pregnant or not. Experts express the test to measure the beta HCG hormone in different ways. You may have heard of Beta HCG blood test, quantitative blood pregnancy test, quantitative HCG test, and quantitative serial Beta HCG test. In this article, we have brought together all the curious about Beta HCG. What should be the Beta HCG value? What does low or high Beta HCG mean? Read on for the answers to all these questions.
What is Beta HCG?
There are 2 types of HCG Hormone, Beta and Alpha. During the pregnancy test, the Beta hormone is examined and is called Beta HCG. Beta HCG hormone is secreted by the placenta with the occurrence of fertilization. A blood test is performed between 10 days and 14 days after fertilization, and a high value can be observed in Beta HCG hormone as a result of the blood test. After a day or two, a urine test is done and more precise data for pregnancy can be obtained. High beta hcg hormone does not only mean a sign of pregnancy. Depending on some diseases encountered in people, its level in the body may increase, this varies from person to person. For this reason, when a high level of Beta HCG hormone is detected, different tests are performed immediately and it is ensured whether pregnancy has occurred or not.
What Should Beta HCG Value Be?
In a healthy non-pregnant woman, Beta HCG hormone varies in the range of 0-10 mlU/ml. In fact, it is usually seen at values around 0 and 0. With pregnancy, these values increase. In other words, we can understand whether pregnancy exists or not from the height of this hormone.
What Does Low and High Beta HCG Mean?
Beta HCG elevation first suggests that the person is pregnant. Because pregnancy increases the Beta HCG hormone. This hormone may give false information in some periods. Especially if the person has a different ailment, for example; In cases such as gastritis, some types of pancreatic cancer, some stomach cancers, ovarian cancer, liver tumor, multiple pregnancy, high levels of this hormone can be detected. For this reason, it is not possible to understand that you are pregnant with this test alone. Afterwards, you must have different tests. In addition to these, it is possible to say that the foods eaten also affect this hormone. Foods high in progesterone such as dill, avocado, spinach, tomatoes and walnuts increase the Beta HCG value.
Beta HCG is usually 0 and close to 0 in normal, ie non-pregnant individuals. In individuals who are pregnant, the low level of this hormone may be due to many reasons. These; ectopic pregnancy, deviation in the calculation of the week of pregnancy, sudden miscarriages.
In this article, we have discussed the Beta HCG hormone in detail. We have made explanations for you by giving place to all the questions that are curious. For more, you can visit our Hüma IVF page.
WHAT IS THE INTRA-LIPID SERUM PROCEDURE AND HOW TO USE IT?
Serum Intralipid Therapy is a treatment used specifically to strengthen the immune system. The immune system plays a big role in the repeated IVF failures and recurrent miscarriages seen in some women. For this purpose, intralipid serum therapy is also used. This is a type of treatment that is started prior to IVF treatment and is applied once a week or every two weeks until the baby's heartbeat is heard, if deemed necessary after pregnancy is achieved. Now let's take a closer look at intralipid serum treatment together ...
What is Intralipid Serum Therapy?
https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/URNl_sRR4-EwSLpzm2aN509s7rTtcJSn_0VFVYSqo9uwzHLXUM7udO2E4GACGbyloRa3rfkzj5bPcPkNX---UZM1I5vMwmlgbdtmEg8ox_zPQYON693heS3Jf5-78XNgDqoW6_c7
Intralipid serum therapy is a form of treatment that starts on the day of the transfer and continues throughout the process. Intralipid whey contains fat molecules and soy protein, which strengthens the immune system. The immune system is extremely important for a healthy pregnancy and its continuation. Because half of the child belongs to the father, the mother's body does not reject it. In vitro fertilization failure also occurs in case of rejection, but intralipid therapy can prevent this failure.

Infertility, as it is called in the medical literature, is one of the most important health problems affecting millions of people around the world. In addition to being a health problem that can be seen in women and men, today the number of couples who cannot have children is quite high. According to researches, 10-15% of couples who have unprotected sexual intercourse for a year cannot have a child.
In our article, about infertility, one of the most important health problems in the world; We will try to give short answers about what is infertility, what are the symptoms of infertility and how to apply the treatment method.
What is infertility?
According to the definition of the World Health Organization, infertility; “Failure to conceive within one year of a sexually active couple who had unprotected intercourse without using contraception.” is the status. In other words, in order to be able to talk about infertility exactly, couples must have unprotected intercourse for one year and be unable to conceive. Infertility is one of the important health problems affecting 25% of the world population. In the researches, it can be seen depending on the woman or the man.
What are the symptoms of infertility?
The most important sign of infertility for both men and women is the inability to get pregnant despite having unprotected sexual intercourse for one year. However, some symptoms seen in men and women can be seen as a sign of infertility and an examination may be required accordingly.
infertility in women;

- If you are in your 30s and younger, it is expected to get pregnant within 1 year.
- If you are in your 35s and 40s, pregnancy is expected within 6 months. If pregnancy does not occur within 6 months, it is useful to see a doctor.
Infertility in men;
- Sexual dysfunctions are considered a sign of infertility. Example; impotence, ejaculation, such as strain.
- Pain, swelling or a lump in the testicle area during sexual intercourse may also be a sign of infertility.
- Infertility in men can often be caused by hormonal disorders.
Although all these symptoms are not exactly the cause of infertility, they are among the factors affecting it and may be symptoms of infertility.

WHAT IS ADENOMYOSIS AND WHAT ARE THE CAUSES? WHAT IS THE RELATIONSHIP OF ADENOMYOSIS AND INfertility? WHAT IS ADENOMYOSIS TREATMENT?
Adenomyosis is a female disease that occurs in women, especially as age increases. Women with adenomyosis experience extremely painful, painful and excessive bleeding menstrual periods. This heavy menstrual period also affects the daily life of women with adenomyosis. In addition, it causes anemia. If you are experiencing these problems and want to know more about Adenomyosis, you can continue reading our article.
What is Adenomyosis?
The uterus contains an inner lining of the uterus called the endometrium. The task of this inner membrane is to limit the inner surface of the uterus. The inner membrane inside the uterus is renewed every month with the menstrual period and in some women it moves towards the uterine muscle layer. Adenomyosis occurs as a result of thickening of the inner membrane in the uterine muscle layer.
There are two types of adenomyosis: benign and malignant. It is a benign type that is usually seen in women, but some women may also have a malignant type that requires surgery and poses a risk.
Women with adenomyosis have difficult days during their menstrual periods. During this period, they may have to cope with excessive pain and excessive bleeding. Again, they may feel uncomfortable bloating before the menstrual period and may experience pain and pain during sexual intercourse.
What are the Causes of Adenomyosis?
Although the causes of adenomyosis disease in women are not known clearly, it is known that hormones such as estrogen, prolactin, and progesterone trigger this ailment. Apart from this, external interventions in cesarean deliveries, surgical cuts or inflammation of the inner lining of the uterus during birth trigger the cells that regulate the uterus to leave their borders and cause adenomyosis. Development-related adenomyosis can also be seen. During the developmental process, the endometrial accumulation formed between the muscles during the first formation of the fetus in the uterus may cause adenomyosis.
What is the Relationship Between Adenomyosis and Infertility?
The age at which adenomyosis is most common is people between the ages of 40 and 50. Adenomyosis is a female disease related to the uterus. For this reason, we can say that adenomyosis is directly related to infertility and pregnancy. Adenomyosis is a disease whose incidence increases with increasing age, so infertility and adenomyosis can be seen together when pregnancy is considered in older women. Expectant mothers who encounter this situation can achieve their dreams of having a child by trying the in vitro fertilization method after receiving adenomyosis treatment.
What is Adenomyosis Treatment?
Experts have done many studies to treat adenomyosis disease and as a result, they have found various treatment methods. We can talk about hormonal therapy as the first treatment method. With hormonal therapy, it is tried to relieve the pain caused by adenomyosis and to reduce the excess blood. For this, birth control pills, temporary menopause treatments or medicated spiral methods can be used. As a second method, we can consider MRI Focused Ultrasound. In MRI focused ultrasound treatment, high-intensity heat waves are used to destroy the tissue that causes adenomyosis. Another form of treatment is hysterectomy. This form of treatment is the most permanent solution, but because it results in the removal of the uterus, it is applied only to women who do not plan to have children or in severe cases that do not respond to any treatment.
In this article, we discussed adenomyosis, which is common in older women. What is adenomyosis, what are the causes of this disease, what is the relationship between adenomyosis and infertility, and what are the treatment methods for this disease, based on all these questions, we have made detailed explanations about adenomyosis for you. We wish you a pleasant reading. You can visit our website for more.
WHAT IS A REDUCED OVER RESERVE (AMH)?
Ovarian reserve, known as the ovary, is a term used to determine the fertilization ability of the ovary to provide egg cells and to determine the probability of a successful pregnancy. With the advancing age of the expectant mother, the number of egg cells obtained from the follicles for pregnancy decreases. decreased ovarian reserve (AMH); It is a condition in which the ovaries begin to lose their normal production capabilities, reducing fertility. Decreased ovarian reserve reduces women's chances of conceiving spontaneously or with treatment. However, it is aimed to minimize the effects of this situation with various methods. The main causes of decreased ovarian reserve can be listed as follows:
· Smoking,
Chronic diseases,
Coffee consumption
Age of the expectant mother,
Genetic abnormalities (X chromosome abnormalities)
Various treatments (such as radiation for cancer)
· Having undergone ovarian surgery.
You can continue reading our article for reduced ovarian reserve and all its details.
How to Identify Decreased Ovarian Reserve?
Decreased ovarian reserve is determined by examining the hormone tests to be performed on the 2nd or 3rd day of the menstrual period of the expectant mother. FSH hormone gives information about the status of ovarian reserves. If the FSH value is higher than 10, it indicates decreased ovarian capacity.
The best indication of the capacity of the ovaries is the vaginal ultrasound. Existing and developing egg structures can be easily detected here. If there are less than six egg structures in the total ovaries, decreased ovarian reserve may be in question.
In summary, decreased ovarian reserve; It can be understood by clinical evaluation of the person, vaginal ultrasound, measurement of AMH hormone and FSH hormone in the blood.
Can a Woman with a Decreased Ovarian Reserve Get Pregnant?
Existing studies show that women with reduced ovarian reserve can become pregnant both spontaneously and with IVF treatment. Although it has been shown that high serum FSH levels in women are associated with low pregnancy rates, it is not sufficient to make a decision based on this alone. Egg cells also regulate their size under the influence of genetic factors. The speed of the aging process of the ovaries varies greatly among women, except for the age factor. In addition to the successful results of endocrine tests and imaging methods in the numerical evaluation of ovarian reserve, their values in determining the chance of pregnancy remain at a limited level.
The chance of conceiving of a woman who is determined to have decreased ovarian reserve with ovarian reserve tests and clinical evaluations by specialist physicians can be increased by applying appropriate ovulation treatment protocols. Patients with reduced ovarian reserve can become mothers with different techniques today. In order to determine these methods, it is important to plan and apply special treatment methods suitable for patients by considering various factors.
How Is Decreased Ovarian Reserve Treated?
Currently, there is no treatment for decreased ovarian reserve that prevents or slows down ovarian aging. In addition, lifestyle changes have an extremely important role in preventing premature aging of the ovaries and in order to ensure the healthy continuation of egg quality, that is, to increase egg reserve and quality. These;
· Eating a balanced and healthy diet,
Doing regular exercise,
Quality and adequate sleep,
Avoiding chemicals, high glycemic index and fast food style foods,
Not to use substances such as cigarettes and alcohol,
· Using antioxidant drugs under the control of a physician.
If you have decreased ovarian reserve and want to have a child according to your required tests and vaginal ultrasound results, it is extremely important to seek in vitro fertilization treatment in the presence of a specialist doctor, without wasting time.
As Hüma IVF Center, we choose the most appropriate treatment method for you, apply it and continue to serve.
WHAT IS BLASTOCYST TRANSFER? WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF BLASTOCYST TRANSFER?
Blastocyst transfer, which is one of the advanced in vitro fertilization techniques applied today, is a method that offers a much higher chance of pregnancy to couples who want to have children. The blastocyst transfer method, which is a method that minimizes the possibility of multiple pregnancy, which is frequently encountered in IVF treatments, supports families in making their plans to have a child more effectively. The blastocyst is defined as the 5th or 6th day of the egg becoming an embryo. Before transfer, one or two embryos of the highest quality are selected and the transfer is carried out. This method is among the most important processes of IVF treatment. What is blastocyst transfer, what are its advantages and risks? You can continue reading our article, which includes the details of blastocyst transfer with questions.
What is blastocyst transfer?
Blastocyst transfer, which has an extremely important place in the IVF treatment process, is the process of transferring the embryo created in the laboratory environment to the woman on the 5th or 6th development day. Embryos are followed in incubators in the laboratory and when they reach the blastocyst stage, transfer to the uterus is performed. Blastocyst transfer has many positive contributions to the IVF process, such as enabling better quality embryo transfer and reducing the risk of multiple pregnancy.
What are the advantages of blastocyst transfer?
Blastocyst transfer is a method that has been used frequently in recent years, depending on the developing technologies. In the first years of in vitro fertilization treatment, the expected time for transfer was 48 hours, but this period has been extended in parallel with the developments experienced today. In the blastocyst transfer method, embryos with the highest success rate are selected more easily with transfers made after 5 and 6 days. In general, the advantages of blastocyst transfer can be listed as follows;
The chance to achieve better results against recurrent pregnancy failures, thanks to the selection of embryos with better development potential and compatibility with the uterus,
Reducing the possibility of multiple pregnancy by transferring fewer embryos with high viability,
The chance to observe the embryo development more clearly and healthily,
Freezing of embryos at the time when they have the highest developmental power, that is, at the blastocyst stage,
· Allowing different methods to examine embryo viability.
What is the risk of blastocyst transfer?
The condition that can be encountered frequently as a result of blastocyst transfer is the factor of multiple pregnancy. For this reason, some legal restrictions have been imposed on the number of embryos to be transferred in order to be protected from the risks of multiple pregnancy. For our country, this limit has been determined to be a maximum of 2 embryos. By performing 1 or 2 blastocyst transfers in embryo transfer on the 5th day, both the risk of multiple pregnancy is reduced and the chance of pregnancy is increased. The aim of IVF treatment is to achieve a healthy fertilization. In this direction, better quality but less number of embryo transfers will minimize the risks that may be encountered and will facilitate healthy results.
Who is blastocyst transfer suitable for?
Blastocyst transfer can be applied to all couples with a high number of fertilized eggs and good embryo quality on the 2nd day. Since a single embryo can be transferred in the first two attempts under the age of 35, a blastocyst transfer will be made to them, thus preventing multiple pregnancy. In our country, blastocyst transfer is successfully applied and high success rates are achieved. However, the remaining quality embryos after the transfer are successfully frozen with the vitrification method, which is a new and fast freezing technique, giving couples a second chance.

WHAT IS MINI IVF? WHO IS APPLIED? WHAT ARE THE MEDICINES USED IN MINI IVF TREATMENT?
Recently, it has been revealed that egg quality obtained from patients with low reserve is lower and genetic problems in the embryo are higher. In this direction, it is aimed to create fewer but better quality embryos by obtaining higher quality eggs with less drugs. Mini IVF appears as a simplified in vitro fertilization practice, unlike the known in vitro fertilization practices performed with daily injections and high-dose drug use. Especially in patients with a low number of eggs or in advanced age, the success rates are higher than conventional treatments. What is mini IVF, who is it applied to and what are the drugs used in its treatment? You can continue reading our article for questions and all the details.
What is mini IVF?
Mini IVF is an in vitro fertilization application that enables the development of fewer but higher quality eggs by using lower doses of drugs. Eggs developed with this method are taken and fertilization is performed by applying the microinjection technique. Embryos formed after fertilization are transferred to the patient, assuming that the probability of attachment is higher.
In addition to the advantages such as less drug use, less cost and less time spent with mini IVF treatment, high success rates can be obtained in patients with a low number of eggs and advancing age.
Who is mini IVF applied to?
In cases where pregnancy does not occur naturally;
Those who want to use hormone drugs less,
At risk of developing OHSS (overstimulation of the ovaries),
Concerned about the daily injection process in IVF treatment,
Those who have problems in the fallopian tubes and are younger than 35 years old,
Having low egg reserve that cannot be increased with treatment,
Looking for a more economical solution than conventional treatment,
People who have tried many times in vitro fertilization but have not achieved a result, and
Mini IVF treatment can be applied to women who want to reduce the possibility of multiple pregnancy.
However, a treatment plan should be made by a specialist by listening to the patient's history of the disease, analyzing their expectations and performing health checks in detail.
What are the drugs used in mini IVF treatment?
Mini IVF treatment is a type of in vitro fertilization that uses little or no medication to increase and develop the number of eggs. In standard IVF treatments, hormone injections are made for 8-10 days to reproduce eggs, while these drugs are not used in the Mini IVF method. Oral tablets and very low dose hormone injections are used instead. With Mini IVF, which is a natural in vitro fertilization method, it is ensured that the highest quality eggs are produced by using the least amount of medication.
Mini IVF method is aimed to obtain better quality eggs with the use of low doses of drugs. At this point, it is possible to determine your treatment plan by consulting your doctor. You can visit our website for more information.

CALCIUM IONOPHORE THERAPY
Calcium ionophore therapy is a treatment method applied to ensure a healthy fertilization and to obtain a high pregnancy rate. In order to talk about a healthy fertilization, when the sperm enters the egg, the enzyme in the head part of the egg must be released into the egg and the amount of calcium inside must increase.
If the amount of folfolipase C in the sperm is low, the egg cannot be fertilized because without phospholipase, the calcium rate in the egg does not increase.
Calcium ionophore therapy is an application that increases the amount of calcium in the egg. In the calcium ionophore application, the egg and sperm are first fertilized by micro-injection. After this process, the eggs are kept in a calcium ionophore for a few minutes. The main purpose here is to increase the calcium level that needs to be increased in the egg. In other words, calcium ionophore therapy helps the fertilization of the egg by supporting the reactions that should start in the egg. So, what is calcium ionophore therapy and to whom is it applied? Now we will answer all these questions for you.
What is Calcium Ionophore? To Whom Is It Applied?
It is possible to define calcium ionophore therapy as an application that increases the amount of calcium in the egg. This treatment method is generally applied to the people we will list below. Those people;
Individuals with successive fertilization problems
If very few eggs or sperm are obtained
In cases where no fertilization can be achieved with micro-injection therapy
In patients with “globosperm” of all sperms
Calcium ionophore therapy is applied.
Who Is Fertilized With Calcium Ionophore?
In cases where embryo transfer cannot be performed due to the fertilization step not taking place during IVF treatment, activation of the eggs and fertilization are aimed by using calcium ionophore. Thus, calcium ionophore therapy is applied. With this treatment method, the problem of non-fertilization can be eliminated and treatment can be applied in couples who have non-fertilization problems. This treatment method is also applied to couples who have problems as a result of obtaining a very small amount of egg and sperm. Fertilization is performed with the calcium ionophore treatment method and a high pregnancy rate is obtained.
In this article, we have given the answers to all these questions for you, what is calcium ionophore therapy, to whom this treatment method is applied and in whom fertilization occurs as a result of the treatment.

WHAT IS BETA HCG? WHAT SHOULD BE THE BETA HCG VALUE? WHAT DOES ITS LOWNESS AND HEIGHT MEAN?
The hormone beta HCG is a hormone that is popularly known as a pregnancy hormone dec It is used in pregnancy tests to determine whether a person is pregnant or not. Specialists express the test for measuring the hormone beta HCG in different ways. It is possible to hear it in the form of a beta HCG blood test, a quantitative blood pregnancy test, a quantitative HCG test, and a quantitative serial Beta HCG test. In this article, we have collected all the curiosities about Beta DECG. What should be the beta HCG value? What does it mean if the beta hCG value is low or high? For answers to all these questions, continue reading our article.
What is Beta HCG?
There are 2 types of the Hormone HCG - Beta and Alpha. When conducting a pregnancy test, the Beta hormone is examined and called Beta HCG. The hormone beta HCG is secreted by the placenta with the formation of fertilization. A blood test is performed dec 10 days and 14 days after fertilization, and as a result of the blood test, a high value of the hormone Beta HCG can be observed. After a day or two, a urine test is performed and clearer data for pregnancy can be obtained. The height of the hormone beta hcg means not only a sign of pregnancy. Depending on some diseases that are found in people, their level in the body may also increase, it varies from person to person. For this reason, when an increase in the Beta HCG hormone is detected, different tests are also performed immediately and it is made sure that the pregnancy does not occur.
What Should Be the Beta HCG Value?
In a healthy woman who is not pregnant, the hormone December HCG varies in the range of 0-10 mlU/ml. Even it is usually seen at an approximate value of 0 and 0. With pregnancy, these values increase. That is, we know from the height of this hormone whether pregnancy exists or not.
What Does Low And High Beta HCG Mean?
The height of beta hCG first makes it clear that the person is pregnant. Because pregnancy increases the hormone Beta HCG. This hormone can give false information in some periods. For example, if a person has a different condition, gastritis, some types of pancreatic cancer, some stomach cancers, ovarian cancer, liver tumor, and multiple pregnancy, this hormone can also be elevated in cases such as gastritis. Therefore, it is unlikely that you will understand that you are pregnant only with this test. After that, you must also have different tests. In addition to these, it october possible to say that the nutrients eaten also affect this hormone. Foods high in progesterone, especially dill, avocado, spinach, tomatoes and walnuts, increase the value of Beta HCG.
Beta HCG is normal, that is, it is usually close to 0 and 0 in individuals who are not pregnant. In individuals who are pregnant, a low level of this hormone can be due to many reasons. These are ectopic pregnancy, a deviation in the calculation of the week of pregnancy, sudden miscarriages.
In this article, we have discussed the Beta HCG hormone in detail. We have made explanations for you by including all the questions that are curious. For more information, you can visit our Human IVF page.
HOW TO UNDERSTAND THAT INSEMINATION WAS SUCCESSFUL?
Insemination treatment is a method of selecting the sperm that is the highest quality of the sperm taken from the expectant father during the ovulation period, that is, during the period when the probability of conception of the expectant mother is the highest, and then putting it into the womb of the expectant mother. A state of fertilization that has been tried many times by natural means, but no successful results have been obtained, thanks to vaccination treatment, sperm and egg dec easily combined and fertilized. So, how will expectant parents understand this situation when Insemination gives a successful result? We will answer this question and give you more detailed information about Insemination treatment. We wish you a pleasant reading in advance.
What is Insemination?
Insemination is a treatment applied by people who want to become parents but have not been able to achieve this condition by natural means. This treatment, which is performed before starting IVF treatment, is aimed at increasing the chances of pregnancy. Insemination takes place exactly as follows;
· Several necessary tests are applied to prospective parents before.
· Male sperm is taken and the best quality sperm is selected by special procedures.
* Spermatozoa are released into the uterus when the woman's eggs are laid. Here this process is known as the vaccination process.
The vaccination method is a method used in cases where the man's sperm count or mobility is low, when there are problems with the excretion of semen during intercourse, when the woman's cervix is narrow. The cause of infertility cannot be explained in any way.
To Whom Is Insemination Therapy Prescribed?
“Who is the Insemination method applied to?"we can explain the question as follows; It is a form of treatment applied to expectant parents who want to have children, but for various reasons some kind of pregnancy condition cannot be created. For the implementation of this treatment, the man or woman must have some problems that he is experiencing. We can list the problems encountered as follows:
· If there is a lack of sperm count and mobility in a man,
· If there is a problem of unexplained infertility (infertility)
· If the woman has ovulation problems and therefore pregnancy could not be done with egg tracking
· It can be applied in couples who want to accelerate the possibility of pregnancy due to social reasons experienced by couples.
What is the Success Rate of Insemination?
With the development of technology in the medical field and the scientific studies conducted, the success rate of Insemination treatment is quite high. And every day these treatments are being enriched with a new way and it is aimed to increase the success rate of Insemination to the highest level.
When Do the Symptoms of Pregnancy Begin With the Success of Insemination?
There is no difference between the occurrence of pregnancy with Insemination and the occurrence of pregnancy by natural means and the appearance of symptoms in terms of the occurrence of pregnancy Dec In other words, expectant mothers are 3rd of pregnancy, as in naturally occurring pregnancies. from the week she begins to experience signs of pregnancy. These symptoms can be considered as complaints such as dizziness, weakness, nausea and vomiting that occur in the morning. Expectant mothers who have these symptoms can find out if they are pregnant by taking a pregnancy test. 12-14 after Insemination to see if pregnancy has occurred. on the day, the Beta HCG hormone is checked in the blood and it is understood whether pregnancy exists or not. If the pregnancy result is positive, you will need to contact your doctor and undergo an examination to keep it under control. After this examination, a clearer result will be obtained by looking at it with ultrasound and it will be determined whether there is a pregnancy or not.
After Insemination, expectant parents should continue their normal lifestyle. They do not need to change anything in their lives with the introduction of Insemination therapy. In this process, they should only take care of regular and balanced nutrition and protect themselves in the best way.
