Step-by-Step
In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a fertility treatment that helps create embryos in the lab by combining eggs and sperm—then transferring an embryo to the uterus (or freezing embryos for a future transfer). At Hanabusa IVF, conventional IVF is never “one-size-fits-all.” We focus on careful stimulation dosing, close monitoring, and precise timing—because protecting egg quality and avoiding preventable setbacks matters more than chasing the biggest egg number.
IVF outcomes are shaped by dosing, timing, and lab strategy. We tailor each IVF cycle to your biology—so you can avoid unnecessary medication, reduce guesswork, and move forward with clarity.
We avoid “max dose by default” and adjust based on how you respond.
We aim to support healthy egg development—not simply a higher egg count.
We plan carefully to help prevent overstimulation and overmaturation (two common reasons cycles underperform)
Fertilization approach (IVF vs. ICSI), culture strategy, and freeze/transfer timing are chosen thoughtfully—not automatically.
Our expertise with low reserve and difficult histories improves the precision we bring to all IVF patients.
You want a higher-effectiveness treatment based on your evaluation
You have tubal factor, endometriosis, male factor, or unexplained infertility (case dependent)
You’ve tried IUI or other treatments without success
You want embryo freezing for future family building
You’re considering genetic testing (PGT) based on your situation
You’re early in your journey and a lower-intervention approach is appropriate
Your evaluation supports starting with ovulation induction and/or IUI
Your history suggests you should be routed into Complex Care strategy from day one (we’ll guide you)
Medication needs and protocol type
Monitoring (ultrasounds + labs)
Retrieval/anesthesia fees
Fertilization method (IVF vs. ICSI)
Embryo culture, freezing (vitrification), and storage
PGT testing (if elected)
Whether you proceed with FET
Often included: retrieval procedure + basic embryology services and embryo culture
Often separate: medications, some labs/ultrasounds, anesthesia, PGT, storage fees, FET cycle costs
IVF success rates vary widely. The most important driver is matching the right treatment strategy to the right patient—then adjusting based on response and embryo development.
Age and ovarian reserve markers
Egg and embryo quality
Sperm parameters and fertilization method
Uterine/lining factors
Diagnosis (endometriosis, tubal factor, male factor, etc.)
Transfer approach (fresh vs. frozen) and embryo stage
Stimulation typically lasts ~8–12 days, with monitoring visits during that window
Ultrasound/lab monitoring (frequency depends on your response)
Often injections; your plan may change based on how you respond
Outpatient procedure with same-day discharge and short recovery
Fertilization and embryo development updates over several days
Transfer timing is personalized (fresh in select cases or freeze + FET)
