With an increasing number of couples giving topmost priority to their work and professional lives, planning a pregnancy takes a backseat. Today, there is a significant rise in the number of couples struggling to conceive. Earlier, two to three children per family was the norm, which came to one to two children. Today, many couples prefer to have only one child.
The knowledge of fertility and technologies to overcome infertility has advanced significantly in India. There is a rise in expectations among couples after the first test tube baby in the world was successfully born. Today, there are lakhs of pregnancies in India through this technology. However, other simpler treatments and fertility enhancing endoscopic surgeries have also resulted in an equal number of pregnancies. Total Woman’s Health Care Hospital and Aakar IVF Centre offer various state-of-the-art facilities under one roof not only with regards to IVF infertility but also for female endoscopic surgeries as per global standards.
Says Dr Prakash Trivedi (Director, Dr Trivedi’s Total Health Care Pvt. Ltd), “A modern woman’s gynaecological health needs the services of a competent gynaecological endoscopist, infertility IVF specialist, embryologists, andrologist, urogynaecologist, sonologist, updated obstetrician and classical Indian vaginal surgeon.”
In cases of infertility, it is important for the doctor to make the couple undergo proper evaluation, take down their detailed history, examine, investigate, perform a sonography and most important, counsel the couple about the line of treatment. Many couples conceive with a simpler form of treatment i.e. timing ovulation and also confirming timed relation to make the husband’s sperm available in the uterus.
“Patients with tubal block, endometriosis and fibroids which affect fertility can be treated laparoscopically, whereas uterine cavity problem by hysteroscopy. This enhances fertility and pregnancy outcome. Issues with advanced age, low fertility factors and markers of either of the couple, uterine lining problems, repeated abortions, males with zero or very low sperm count, blocked vas deferens would need IVF-ICSI -testicular sperm extraction or advanced test tube baby treatment,” adds Priti Trivedi (Chief Embryologist, Aakar IVF Centre).
These treatments have become patient-friendly and with availability of ICSI, blastocyst formation, freezing sperm, embryos, oocyte by vitrification techniques have broadened the hopes of women aged between 21 to 51 as well as men with an advanced age. Also, in cases of cancer treatment, fertility preserving prophylactic techniques is a boon. Donor oocytes, sperms or indicated surrogacy is a new chapter.
Total Woman’s Health Care and Aakar IVF Centre has thousands of success stories and so do many established centres from all over India, who offer facilities under one roof to treat infertility. Ends Dr Prakash, “There is only one requirement — self-belief in the couple, understanding relatives, trust in the infertility experts in India, patience and God’s kindness, which helps make infertility reachable, approachable and affordable.”
