Egg Retrieval

Egg retrieval is a key procedure in assisted reproductive technologies such as IVF and ICSI, where mature eggs are collected from the ovaries to be fertilized in the laboratory. This minimally invasive procedure plays a vital role in helping couples struggling with infertility.

What is Egg Retrieval?

Egg retrieval, also known as oocyte aspiration, is performed after ovarian stimulation, where hormonal medications are used to encourage the ovaries to produce multiple mature eggs. The eggs are then carefully collected using a fine needle guided by ultrasound.

The Egg Retrieval Procedure

• Preparation: Before the procedure, your doctor will monitor follicle growth and hormone levels through ultrasounds and blood tests.

• Procedure: Under light sedation or anesthesia, a thin needle is inserted through the vaginal wall into the ovaries using ultrasound guidance to collect eggs.

• Duration: The procedure typically takes 15-30 minutes and is usually outpatient.

• Post-procedure: Mild cramping or spotting may occur, and rest is recommended for the day.
