High-Complexity Reproductive Medicine

In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) in Colombia

In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is the assisted reproduction technique with the highest global efficacy. By fertilizing eggs with sperm outside the human body in our accredited embryology laboratory, we select the healthiest embryos for transfer, maximizing clinical success and healthy live births.

Clinical Highlights (Quick Summary)
  • Success rate: 55% to 65% per blastocyst transfer with PGT-A.
  • Stay duration: 10 to 14 days in Colombia for international patients.
  • Lab method: Standard ICSI with extended Day 5 blastocyst culture.
  • Comfort: Gentle outpatient procedure under light sedation.

Clinical Guidelines & Options

Indications and customized protocols available at ReproFértil

When is IVF Recommended?

Patients with blocked, damaged, or previously tied fallopian tubes.
Patients with diminished ovarian reserve or advanced reproductive age.
Patients with moderate to severe endometriosis.
Previous unsuccessful intrauterine insemination (IUI) cycles.
Severe male factor infertility (low sperm count, poor motility, or abnormal morphology).

Success Rates at ReproFértil

At ReproFértil, cumulative IVF success rates range between 55% and 65% per cycle when utilizing Day 5/6 blastocyst transfers coupled with PGT-A genetic screening. Success depends fundamentally on maternal age and ovarian reserve, with optimal rates achieved via single euploid embryo transfer.

Available IVF Treatment Modalities

  • IVF with own eggs and partner sperm.
  • IVF with own eggs and donor sperm.
  • IVF with donor eggs (Egg Donation) and partner sperm.
  • IVF with donor eggs and donor sperm (Double Donation).
  • ROPA Method (Shared motherhood for female couples).
Step-by-Step Protocol

The 8 Stages of the IVF Process

Your path to parenthood guided with precision and compassionate care by ReproFértil specialists

1
Stage 1

Initial Consultation & Diagnostic Workup

Comprehensive clinical assessment including medical and reproductive history, prior surgeries, and evaluation of both partners. Transvaginal ultrasound, ovarian reserve blood tests (AMH, FSH), and semen analysis are conducted to personalize your protocol.

2
Stage 2

Controlled Ovarian Stimulation

Targeted medication protocols stimulate the ovaries to develop multiple mature follicles over approximately 10 to 12 days, monitored closely via regular ultrasound and estradiol tracking.

3
Stage 3

Egg Retrieval & Semen Sample Collection

A brief, comfortable 20-minute outpatient procedure performed under light sedation. Follicular fluid is aspirated transvaginally under ultrasound guidance, while the semen sample is prepared and optimized in the laboratory.

4
Stage 4

Fertilization via ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection)

Each mature egg is microinjected with a single high-quality sperm using micromanipulators in our embryology laboratory, achieving high fertilization rates.

5
Stage 5

Extended Blastocyst Culture (Day 5/6)

Embryos develop in next-generation benchtop incubators that replicate natural physiological conditions until reaching the blastocyst stage, allowing superior developmental selection.

6
Stage 6

Embryo Transfer

The best-selected embryo is gently placed into the uterine cavity using a delicate, ultrasound-guided catheter. This is a painless 15-minute procedure requiring no sedation.

7
Stage 7

Cryopreservation of Surplus Embryos

Remaining viable blastocysts are vitrified for future frozen embryo transfers (FET) without needing a repeated ovarian stimulation cycle.

8
Stage 8

Pregnancy Confirmation (Beta-hCG Blood Test)

Conducted 10 to 12 days post-transfer to quantitatively confirm biochemical pregnancy, followed by an early obstetric ultrasound.
